My comments on tutoring ADD/ADHD : I have a Masters degree in special education. I also have 10 years of experience in the middle school level working with kids with ADD/ADHD.

I have been teaching special education for 10 years. I started in Henderson, NV where i taught in a co-taugt setting. I taught English, reading, and science. Furthermore, I taught in a resource class setting for 2 years. Moreso, I taught 8 years in Carson City NV. I taught English in a co-taught setting and English,reading, and study skills in a resource room. I also have experience in a inclusion setting. This is where special education students are enrolled in a general education class with special education supports. I did that for 2 years.
I use positive rewards systems in my classroom. I also feel effort is the most important element of success when working with students with disabilities.

German Tutor, Guitar Instructor, Paraprofessional

I began learning German and French when I was 16 and in High School, then immediately continued my studies in College at University of Northern Colorado, where I am currently a double major in the two languages. I will be a Senior this year. Within my experience, I have traveled to Germany thrice, two of those times to study through the college. I have also studied abroad for French in Québec. My knowledge of the literature of these languages has been greatly extended within my studies at the University. I am the German Tutor for the University during the school year. I have been playing guitar for seven years, and have taught lessons at times throughout. I have basic music theory training. I have also worked as a paraprofessional for students with disabilities for six summer school sessions, aiding them with academics and behavioral skills.

Tutor with 13 years experience

Make learning fun and everyone wins! Not all children absorb material the same way. I try to explore different ways of presenting material and working through concepts to relate the material to something that can be understood.
I'm an environmental engineer who has been tutoring for the last 13 years. I enjoy working with children and excell at working with children who might be struggling with comprehension or who have learning disabilities. I have experience working with children who are ESL or ELL. I have worked with elementary, secondary and high school students.

My role as a teacher is always multi-faceted. I am patient, compassionate, and consistent. I strive to inspire life-long-learning and find what motivates each of my students. My students gain confidence as they achieve small goals and then reach for new and just a little more challenging goals. Self-esteem increases with each accomplishment--especially the tasks that seemed just out of reach. It is important to me to take into account each student's learning styles, interests, and strengths when planning the activities and skills toward learning goals. My students enjoy collaborating in their learning plan whenever they can.
I love teaching and have experience working with elementary students of all ages and abilities. Compassion is one of the most important traits of a teacher and helps me draw out even reluctant learners. Motivation is one of the most important traits for ... read more

As a mathematics graduate, I am very detail-oriented and organized. Throughout college I tutored college students in calculus, business math, and statistics. I also tutored high school students in Algebra 1 and 2, Trigonometry, and Geometry. My easy-going and patient teaching style created many referrals that made me a successful and lucrative tutor. During the past six years I have tutored all levels of math with students ranging from Kindergarten to College age.
Although I earned a mathematics degree, I struggled to gain complete competence in algebra and geometry. I believe that my initial struggles have enabled me to become a better teacher because I constantly offer several ways of solving a problem to my students. I do not have to pause and wait for them to comprehend the material the first try. I can simply try re-phrasing or a different method. Also, I am intrinsica ... read more

My teaching style is a mixture of many elements. The first thing I do is to make students enthusiastic about their studies. To give subtle motivation and build interest, I make the topic applicable to a person’s life. The next step is to work on confidence. You have to help students see that it is possible to overcome personal difficulties with specific subjects. To do this, I focus on each learner’s strengths and break topics down into manageable parts. I ask the questions that will direct each student to make connections on their own. As frustration is an inevitable part of learning for struggling students, I always remain flexible and ready to try a new tactic when necessary.

I utilize several different teaching strategies and attempt to pull strengths from the youth and work with positives. I give examples and direct youth in the direction of the correct answers. I utilize reading and instructing out loud to the class, writing on the board for further and clearer instructions and information, using real life ideas and situations to help explain the lesson (ex. of using microwave and cooking to help explain temperature and gave reminders at the end of class for work completion, assignments and expectations. I am firm with some basic expectations and allow for some freedoms that seem to benefit the flow of the class and avoid power struggles and the potential for additional problems.

I am a Colorado State University graduate with my major in Natural Sciences as well as a completed Initial Teacher License. I have not only an extensive understanding of science but I also know how to specifically teach science. I greatly enjoy helping others learn and I had a tutoring position last spring at a local high school (Fossil Ridge).
I love to work with children and adults. I feel that the best way for my students learn is for them to get hands on experience whether that be guided problem solving or actual lab work. I think that through this way my students reach their greatest potential.

A Little Bit About Me...

As each student is unique, my teaching style is eclectic and tailored to the individual student as to how they best learn. Having a degree in Psychology gives me the unique opportunity to understand the individual, present them with techniques that promote better study habits, and increase their retention. I have dealt with situations of dyslexia, test anxiety, panic attacks, and challenging home/lifestyle situations, and have met with those challenges with success. As part of my continuing education I have taken a graduate class in Meta Cognition which is all about learning, learning styles, and how to create the best environments.

I am very passionate about education. I am a life-long student and my enthusiasm for learning is contagious. Each child has learning style and my priority is to discover that of your child's. My teaching approaches are quite varied and my flexibility allows adjustment, according to the needs of the student. I create a safe and fun environment for learning and endeavor to provide a good fit, so as to avail the most effective opportunity for your child's academic success.

My teaching style is trying to relate to each person and make everything easier for them. Dealing with A.D.D my entire life, I've learned how to break apart the entire problem(or essay) into better and more clear parts. A good educator needs to demand accountability from it's students. I believe that a student needs to do a little work every day, instead of a lot in one day. I stress that every student keeps a notebook that highlights main ideas in every subject. I have been through it, so I know what is important long-term.

I have taught elementary school in Colorado for 34 years. I have basically taught 2nd-6th graders, and taught a middle school class (combination 6th/7th/8th) one year. The past seventeen years, I have taught gifted/talented students. G/T students usually have asynchronous development, meaning they have strong abilities in some subjects and are weaker in others. Some g/t students are twice-exceptional, meaning they are gifted in particular subjects but have learning disabilities which need to be addressed in others. Therefore, I have experience with the entire spectrum of learning disabled through profoundly gifted students. I am a master teacher in all subject areas, except the arts.
I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I try to discover each student's particular learning style to help them successfully ... read more
