Since 2001, I have had the opportunity to work with students of all ages and abilities. In particular, I have gained significant experience working with students who benefit from alternative learning strategies due to diverse learning styles, developmental issues, or learning disabilities. I find it to be very rewarding to develop new strategies to help students with differing learning styles or abilities master a topic or improve upon their reading abilities. Most importantly, I enjoy the opportunity to help all students reach their potential in a variety of subjects to include: all levels of Biology; Geology; Earth Sciences; Statistics; Elementary Science, Math, and Reading; Collegiate Writing Skills; and Research Methodologies.

I have completed over 1,000 field experience hours working with students with special needs throughout the course of receiving my special education degree. During these experiences, I have worked with many different students with a wide variety of disabilities and learning difficulties ranging from ADD/ADHD to students with severe needs such as autism and Down syndrome. Throughout my experiences, I have created and implemented lessons and behavior management interventions to address each students individual needs and goals outlined in his/her IEP. I recently worked with a student during the previous summer with a developmental delay. I created and implemented fun lessons and games that addressed her current IEP goals and objectives. I am currently working with a 1.5 year old child with Fragile X syndrome and am mainly working on developmental therapies with him at this time.

My comments on tutoring Special Education : Seven years of teaching experience in kindergarten through eighth grade classrooms teaching students with special education needs.

A wide variety of educational experiences as a teacher, from international schools in Scandanavia to a one room schoolhouse in rural southeastern Montana. My experience in the diversity of students I've taught is similar to that of the places I've taught. Have worked with students with behavior disorders, special education needs, as well as English language leaners.
Interactive to show students how learning can be fun. I typically include a game in sometime I'm doing, to either grasp their attention or give them something to look forward to, or a little of both.

Special Education is one of my top subjects! I have taught Special Education reading and writing for 14 years in a public school district. I am retiring and June and would like continue helping struggling readers and writers

I am a very patient with students, trying many different ways to try to get them to understand. If I need to use phonics or other word recognition strategies I will.
I have taught reading for the last 17 years to struggling readers in a public school. The students that I teach have shown improvement in reading and writing on the state achievement test for the last 10 years. I enjoy working with struggling readers because when they get it it is very rewarding to know that in some way I have helped them enjoy reading.

Teaching has been a lifelong avocation relating from elementary education through seminary level theology for high school students. Interaction with infants through young adults, to include disabled youth, in a part time teaching environment, has brought many satisfying teaching memories. I have had the opportunity to instruct mainly in religous studies and preschool crafts for the past 30 years and have enjoyed all levels of students.
Working full time in the corporate has fine tuned interaction skills that I have been able to utilize when teaching early morning seminary classes as well as weekend nursery and primary classes in our Church. I believe that the importance we place on education our children now will benefit our world in their future. Children take in all the world presents to them and by providing positive, correct learning principles, their potentials for good are en ... read more

I began working with children who were diagnosed with autism my first year of college (I did this for 7 years). I felt a sense of accomplishment as I watched them grow as people. I realized through these experiences that I wanted to help people learn and become accomplished. Later, I decided to student teach in graduate school. I taught three different writing courses over three years, including this past year as a part-time instructor. While I enjoyed my time teaching in a college classroom, I found myself making the most headway during conference time. In addition, I also worked as a writing tutor at MU's writing center. I felt like I accomplished more working with students in this way instead of standing by a chalkboard.
I volunteer for HOBY (Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership Seminar) every year. This program pushes facilitation, which is what I strive to do. I like to try ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have assembled a wide variety of experiences during my years of work and education. I have worked as a journalist, advertising copy writer and designer; and teacher of adult learners in the areas of fine art, art history, and garden design. For 16 years, I owned a operated a successful garden design business and, more recently, taught in a local elementary school for six years as a fifth grade teacher, specializing in reading and, especially, writing. I occasionally write for garden publications and continue to create artworks and gardens.
My goal as a teacher is to "fit" the material that needs to be learned into each student's character and mindset. Everyone excels at something -- it is my job to find out what that is and how to make that work so that new material can be incorporated. I work to help students achieve their potential and strive to help them feel confident th ... read more

I love to be an encourager and to build children up in their educational experiences. I believe in small portions, using this as a learning tool. To tackle tough learning experiences we take one piece at a time and keep the end in site. I love to help children celebrate their successes big and little. I believe that: children need positive role models to build their confidences while helping them succeed not only in school but also in life. :) I would love to have the opportunity to share my skills.

My teaching style would be observe the child and then apply a teaching method that feels the best. Also allowing the child to show where they want to go through personal discovery. I beleive in guiding the child when they really need it and then letting them fly.
