My comments on tutoring Dyslexia : As a dyslexic student myself, I have intimate knowledge of the possible difficulties with learning a new language.

During the last two years of my undergraduate career I worked as an Arabic and Economics tutor in the Academic Resource Center at Tufts University. With respect to Arabic, I worked with Beginner and Intermediate level students - extensively using Al-Kitaab. Being dyslexic, I have an intimate knowledge of the difficulties that dyslexic students face when learning a new language, especially with an abjad like Arabic. I also have considerable "teaching" experience due to my time working as a personal trainer.
As a student, I understand the importance of a good teacher. I always try and help the student find and correct their own mistakes, rather than merely giving them the corrections. I have found that the listening is one of the most important tools that a tutor has at their disposal: in my experience, the student knows where their weaknesses and difficulties lie, even if they are u ... read more

My comments on tutoring Dyslexia : I use a multisensory approach espoused by the Orton-Gillingham approach to reading instruction. Sight, sound, and neurological pathways to develop reading skills are utilized.

I am a patient, easy-going man with high standards and expectations for my students.
I have been a special needs teacher (k-8 moderate disabilities) for seven years, and an Orton-Gillingham instructor for eight years. Prior to my certifications I worked as a volunteer in Boston, Weymouth, and Quincy schools. I earned a Bachelor's in Literature and history in 1993, and am confident about my ability to work with all types of students in all areas of academics. I am a teacher in a substantially separate classroom for children with emotional disabilities. I also work with autistic children each summer in a social skills program. I have co-taught in the general education classroom over the years, and consider myself experienced and well-schooled in all facets of special and general education. I have also tutored children with reading disabilities over the years with great success (no m ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a trained and experienced Orton Gillingham tutor. I have been tutoring 1:1 since 2002 in the Massachusetts and Nashua, NH area. I also tutor students with Executive Functioning disorder in study and organizational skills. My goal is to help students become self-competent and self-confident. I have been teaching for 30 years and continue to train and work to develop the very best program for each child.
I strongly believe in developing pro-active learning skills by scaffolding the student with individually designed learning strategies and leading them to feel self-confidence to be "in the driver's seat" of their educational process.

Reading Tutoring - Wilson, Orton-Gillingham, Lively Letters

Wilson Reading, Orton-Gillingham and Brain Gym® The great advantage of individualized reading tutoring is that my students have my undivided attention, expertise and the promise that I am diligent in using and seeking the exact interventions that they need to learn with confidence and a sense of accomplishment. Wilson Reading is a system of reading tutoring, based on Orton-Gillingham and years of research and experience, that organizes the English language by its six syllable types and spelling patterns.

In addition to five years of experience teaching high school biology, I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Biology and Secondary Education and a Master’s Degree in Education; Moderate Special Needs. I am licensed in Massachusetts in Biology grades 8-12 and Moderate Disabilities grades 5-12. My experience working at a private school for students diagnosed with Language-Based Learning Disability has given me the necessary tools to incorporate study skills, as well as reading and writing skills, into the science curriculum. My experience includes teaching biology, chemistry, marine science, daily one-on-one language arts tutorials, and private tutoring in organic chemistry and anatomy and physiology.
I believe that that goal of education is to understand the world around us, not to merely memorize facts. I tell my students all the time that I do not want them to memorize anything, but I w ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been a gymnastics instructor for about eight years which has helped in shaping my teaching style. I love to push children in a supportive manner so that they can believe in themselves and truly get the most of their education. On top of teaching for the semester in Costa Rica, I also worked for a company called "Mad Science" for almost two years now. I was required to lead classes ages K-5 in an after school science program in which I was the only instructor. I believe I am fun but serious enough to make sure that work gets accomplished and that the students truly learn.
I recently graduated from the University of Massachusetts, Amherst with two bachelor's degrees. One degree is in Spanish and I consider myself completely fluent, especially having spent a semester in Costa Rica. During this time I volunteered at a school teaching students ages 5 through 18 English at differe ... read more

I use a very hands-on approach. I think that 1-on-1 is most beneficial to all. I understand that all children learn in different ways and am flexible when it comes to adapting to each child's learning style. I believe that it takes some time to get to know each child and learn what works best for him/her, however all children have potential to achieve high levels of success. I truly believe that tutoring can make a huge difference in a child's education which is why I continue to pursue my career in the field of education.
I have recently received my Master's Degree in Special Education from Salem State College and have a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education form Assumption college. I am certified by the Massachusetts Department of Education in both areas. For the past two years I worked as an Instructional Assistant for 6th-8th grade students with Autism, Asperger's, A ... read more

I believe that to be a good teacher, one has to tailor instruction to the needs of each individual child. I am patient and easy going in my teaching style. I believe that structure is important to ensure that core skills are developed, but hope to help children learn in a way that is also fun, so they will look forward to each lesson. Reading is an essential skill that children will need throughout their lives, and every child can learn to read given the right instruction.
I have a master's degree in Speech Language Pathology from MGH Institute of Health Professions, including a concentration in reading. I have completed all courses and the clinical practicum necessary for reading specialist certification and have received training in the Wilson Reading System.
