I guide you through the process and make is a step by step process to outperform others, maintain peace of mind and graduate on time. Confidence is essential in organic. We build that first and clear up the confusion being presented to you in a way you will see immediately. I am an organic chemist. I will only teach you at the level you are assigned. My background makes it easier for you. Anyone can learn organic chemistry or the other subjects and standardized exams I've tutored.

I have taught Special Education reading for 14 years in a public school district but am retiring in June and would like to continue helping struggling readers. 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. 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.

As a Special Education teacher, I am expert at creating lessons that will reach your student.

Students should be provided a learning environment where they can grow to their full potential.

I try to make every child feel successful and take pride

I have worked with children in one capacity or another for over 20 years. I love to help children achieve their educational goals and to succeed in any way possible.

All children can learn to full potential if given the attention and opportunities necessary.

As a volunteer, I have enjoyed teaching children with learning disabilities. I believe I can make a difference as a tutor. For example, one day I overheard my son's Kindergarten teacher say she would have to hold back one of the students from entering first grade because the child could not count to ten or say the alphabet. I asked this teacher if I could be a volunteer tutor for this child an hour once a week over the remaining three months of the school year to see if I could help turn the situation around. One of my proudest moments came shortly after the tutoring period ended in which the Kindergarten teacher announced she would be able to enter this child into first grade along with the rest of his classmates! I retired last year after 33 years of United States Air Force military and civilian service. I have earned a BA in Sociology and an AS in Engineering Design Drafting. Throug
