Meghan W. - Joliet, IL 60431 (41.7 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I work as a special education teacher in a K-2 autism setting. However, I have previously co-taught and worked as a resource special education teacher for 3-8th grade students. I have several years of experience working in the field of education. My primary role has been as a K-8 special education teacher. I have worked in various capacities in this position, including co-teaching middle school English, providing resource support to first-grade students, and serving as a K-2 autism teacher.
In addition to my classroom experience, I have tutored several clients with ADHD/ADD and specific learning disabilities in reading, math, and study skills. Overall, my experience has given me a strong foundation in special education and a deep understanding of how to support students with diverse learning needs.

Amber M - Metamora, IL 61548 (34.6 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $39.50/hr.
I have had a passion for education since I was a third grade student. I always thought I wanted to be a teacher "when I grew up." I earned a BA in psychology and started a Master's program in elementary education. Due to personal circumstances, however, I was not able to complete the program. I then taught early childhood and continued to volunteer in schools. I now work in the education department at Bradley University. I miss teaching greatly and have a deep passion for working with children.
I took Spanish up through he intermediate level in college; I feel confident in my ability to teach/tutor the basic foundations of the Spanish Language. I love the process of really getting to know a student on an individual level. That is crucial to determine their learning style and their strengths. It is incredibly rewarding to experience a student's progression and also to learn f

Pamela K - Franklin Grove, IL 61031 (37.6 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I have taught 3rd, 4th and 5th grades. I also have experience in 7th and 8th grade. My strengths are teaching math strategies such as facts, multi-step problems and algebra.
I have a passion for reading and writing instruction. I am highly qualified to teach reading fluency, phonics/ word attack, comprehension and vocabulary. I have a variety of high interest activities to help students build their confidence in both reading and writing. Because all students learn differently, it is important for me as a teacher to get to know each student to find out what fits their needs the best. I like to offer a variety of activities that appeal to the hands-on learns, as well as kids that need visual cues. I am a patient, encouraging and energetic teacher. It's my joy to find the instruction that really clicks with each student, and celebrate with them over their successes.

Natalie B - Peoria, IL 61614 (39.8 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $39.50/hr.
My teaching style is fun yet innovative. I incorporate all types of teaching styles to meet the needs of learners. I love to learn and demonstrate that through my teaching style. My students have fun in my classroom. I aim to entertain in an effort to make students feel comfortable and have fun themselves. I have served as the 6th grade lead teacher at Rolling Acres Edison. I teach full inclusion science and social studies by integrating math and reading skills. I am responsible for leading daily team meetings concerning student data. Together we use monthly online diagnostic testing to ensure student success on state mandated tests. As a team leader, I meet bi-weekly with our school's leadership team. I developed and implemented an RTI model used by the 5th and 6th grade teams at Rolling Acres in an effort to increase reading benchmark scores of struggling readers. I also co

Kristin G - East Peoria, IL 61611 (41.2 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I have always loved working with children and can work with children of all levels due to growing up with an autistic younger brother. His disability has taught me to be patient and open-minded with all children. I understand that all children have a different way of learning and it may take time to identify a child's learning style. I am very observant and so I can quickly pick up on how a student will learn best. I understand that some children aren't fortunate enough to have a support system to help them through school and to take time to teach them. I would like to contribute to helping to teach children on all levels. Some children just need a boost to get them on their feet and some children need more guidance than others. During my graduate program at SIU, I become a teaching assistant and fell in love with teaching. I taught undergraduate laboratory in microbiology and bacteriolo

Clotee L - West Peoria, IL 61604 (42.5 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $37.00/hr.
As an experienced K-12 substitute teacher, my work extended from the inner city to the county schools. I had the opportunity to instruct students with various ability levels and learning styles. During the 2008-2009 school term I served as an AmeriCorps VISTA in a middle school working as tutor, special projects assistant, and mentor. I hold a BS degree in Sociology and expect to earn a M.Ed. in Curriculum and Instruction in 2010. Graduate school taught me to converse on every level; to write research papers, essays, and content specific lesson plans that conform to IL Learning Standards. With joy I will employ technology aids to teach and adapt instruction to each individual, situation or learning environment. Teaching and learning is deeply rooted in my being, children are my joy, and I truly believe all are capable of learning. I use a constructivist approach to teaching, and believe

Kimberly W - Plainfield, IL 60544 (44.7 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $50.00/hr.
As an active member of my community, in the form of pageantry, volunteering, and leadership, I have always enjoyed instructing others. Currently, I love my job at Midwest Generation as an Instructional Designer of Training. I get to train Engineers and Office Managers on subjects I knew little about, and have grown in responsibility and development. I love kids, since my summer camp instruction job I held all throughout High School as well as an active instructor at my church. I just graduated from Illinois State University about a year ago, and am recently educated and knowledgeable in all subjects, especially English, Social Studies, and Math. I also have five years of French studies. Every student is different, therefore every student has different needs. Every student also can learn differently, whether it be by incorporating more or less visual learning strategies, auditory learning

Carlie A - Aurora, IL 60503 (46.7 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $45.50/hr.
I would consider my teaching style as hands on. I love to work with children and know that I am giving the confidence to learn. I believe that every child has the ability to learn if they are given a safe learning space to explore their potential. I believe that being an educator is the greatest gift that I could give to anyone in need. As a college graduate, I have earned a bachelor's degree in Economics, with a minor in Statistics. I have 2 years in a professional financial position. Along side of my finance career I assisted a friend of mine in the academia field. I assisted in creating lesson plans, grading papers, writing tests, and team building activities. Throughout my academic career I have always succeeded in math. I have always had a love of numbers and would love the opportunity to share my love and help others. I would greatly appreciate being considered for this position.
