Summer Teacher Available!

I have multiple teaching styles. I tailor my teaching to each individual student and their needs. I strive to make each lesson engaging and appealing. There's no reason students should dread learning!
I'm a certified K-5 teacher, with a master's degree, focus on reading (I love teaching math too though!). I have taught for 11 years. For 2 other years I've worked with special needs students, including those with autism, cerebral palsey, and motor issues. I work hard to find ways that learning will connect with individual students. I keep up on the current research about how kids best learn. I'd love to meet you and talk further!

A Little Bit About Me...

I am not much a tutor, but I like helping other people. I enjoy making people happy and teaching them things that will help them later on and I try to make learning fun and relevant to everyone. I am good with arts and enjoy movies and music and stuff like that which is an added bonus, so I can be more than just a teacher.

My comments on tutoring Special Education : Recently retired special education teacher

I am a recently retired special education teacher with 27 years classroom experience. I am currently a substitute teacher in the public schools. I have vast experience working with special needs students as well as struggling regular education students. I have direct hands-on experience working with students with learning disabilities, autism, ADD/ADHD, and sensory integration. I am trained in and have taught specific reading strategies such as Orton-Gillingham. I also have training and experience with specific math curriculum and strategies such as Math in Focus (Singapore Math)and Touch Math.
My teaching style reflects an approach that is hands-on, fun and engaging, uses humor, and lastly perseverance. I have a lifelong passion for working with children struggling to learn.

I am a sophomore at Eastern Kentucky University. I would really love to tutor in ASL since it is my minor and I love the language. I have taken up to 201 but I have many deaf friends who have taught me more then a class ever could. I am only experienced in tutoring my sisters but I think it would be a really fun job to teach someone else the language I love.

More About This Tutor...

Throughout my career, from tutor to high school teacher to entrepreneur, I have learned how to effectively convey new material to students in many ways (based on Howard Gardner’s multiple intelligences), to draw on students’ background knowledge and interest areas in order to teach new material, to be patient with students who do not “get it” on the first try, and to allow students to succeed and grow at their own pace. It is my nature and philosophy to look for the best in students and to do whatever is necessary to help them perform to their fullest potential. Overall, my educational and personal experiences have prepared me well to be an educator and a lifelong learner.
In May 1997, I received my Bachelor of Arts degree from Lake Superior State University with a major in English Language and Literature and a minor in French Language and Literature. In May 1998, I graduated from ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have worked in after school programs tutoring children throughout my college career. Then after my college career I taught 3rd Grade at Peaks Mill Elementary School in Frankfort, KY. I have worked with students of all levels and had special needs students in my class. All my class work was differentiated to meet the needs of each student.
I believe all students learn differently and what we need to reach all students is to find out how they learn best and find a way to reach them that they will prove to be successful in. There are a lot of ways to reach students and when you find that one perfect way it all clicks.

More About This Tutor...

Disregarding my history, ethics, and religion expertise, my main reason for applying is my confidence in my capabilities to teach English. Basic parts of speech, syntax, grammar, organization, rhetoric, and multiple genres--from correct usage to specialized purposes (such as academic papers, business, text for oral delivery) have been mastered. In terms of mathematics, I taught GED, which covered most basic functions; however, I am a humanities person. My preferences are in the areas where I have spent most of my time.
Genuine, personal interest in the child; establishing rapport; establishing the student's mastery level, then building from there (instead of an arbitrary line which creates anxiety); affirmation of every step of progress/success; recognition but careful use of errors in non-judgmental, constructive correction; ease in backing up for review when needed; positive ... read more

My philosophy of teaching has evolved from many years of teaching and administrative experience. As I reflect on my beliefs regarding teaching and learning, I find that my mission as an educator is threefold: • to promote positive learning; • to spark learner enthusiasm for learning; • and to provide a strong foundation for lifelong learning. To accomplish this, I enjoy applying a wide variety of strategies based on essential educational principles encompassing a variety of learning styles, learning theory, diversity issues, instructional planning and assessment.
I have over 25 years experience in education and have taught middle school through college mathematics. I enjoy helping students learn mathematics as well as other subjects. In math I prefer to assist with basic math through pre-calculus. I also enjoy history and economics and assisting with those subjects as well. I ... read more
