Douglas W. - Palm Desert, CA 92211 (9.3 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $34.00/hr.
As an educational psychologist in various school districts I evaluated students for dyslexia. I then worked with the teachers to find the most effective way to work with these students. I am very aware of the necessity of adapting my teaching style to the learning modality of those I am working with. As an educator I evaluated students to define how they best process information. They may be auditory learners, visual learners or they may use a combination approaches. I am very patient and understand that everyone can learn. I believe in setting goals and evaluating progress to establish new goals when necessary. I have taught in Michigan and in California. I also have credentials as a school counselor and psychologist. I have experience with all aspects of the special education system from the K through grade 12 level. This incudes testing, placement and re-evaluation and the IEP

Gwen M. - Vista, CA 92083 (46.2 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $37.50/hr.
My teaching approach is eclectic as every child is a different child. One approach does not work for everyone and generally speaking I use a combination of instructional philosophies. No matter what technique, strategy or approach I use, the foundation of my instruction always starts with building a trusting relationship with the child built on caring and respect.

gloria s. - Carlsbad, CA 92008 (50.5 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I work through positive behavior supports, humor and style to motivate the student to understand the need to learn the core subject matter in order to proceed through high school. I am excellent at reading the needs of the student and creating lessons that are relevant, interesting and fun. I have taught all core subjects plus art history for over 20 years using various state mandated materials and supplementals I purchased through special ed catalogs. Student outcomes were best with the supplementals due to limited attention span and high interest-low level materials. I use various methods to determine mastery- I create my own written or verbal assessments, writing assignments and have students maintain learning journals.
I have a background in educational psychology which is useful in dealing with students with behavioral issues.

Oriana M - Palm Springs, CA 92264 (8.4 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $41.50/hr.
I am a speech and language pathologist with a Masters Degree in Communicative Disorders. I have 6 years working in the public school setting with elementary and middle school students. As a special education specialist, I have had the opportunity to work with children with various needs such as language deficits, learning disabilities, autism, ADHD, etc. I have been an active member of a multi-disciplinary team consisting of school administrators, psychologists, general education teachers, occupational therapists, literacy specialists, ESL specialists and nurses, in which each team member contributed their professional expertise in implementing an individualized education program to meet the needs of each individual student.

James P - Palm Desert, CA 92211 (9.5 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $41.00/hr.
I am a natural teacher, and my experiences reflect that. For example, I am currently working my way through CSU Palm Desert's multiple subject credential. However, the open position I am applying for requires an “Adult Education Writing Tutor”.
As a student and professional, I have had many, many opportunities to hone my writing craft. For example, as an adjunct to my recent studies, I took the Masters "Writing 101" class, which instructed me (among other things) in the finery of APA format. While my in-class performances certainly indicates my ability to write at the graduate level, it is also my professional teaching experience that I believe will convince you to allow me to deliver your services: I possess valuable experience working with students, having several years of small classroom leadership (and one-on-one instruction) with adult learners.

Richard T - Cathedral City, CA 92234 (10.9 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $42.50/hr.
After twenty years in the financial area I went back to school to obtain a special education credential and found a passion for teaching. While in school I worked as a teacher's aide at Seaside High School, and taught 5th grade summer school for two years. After completing my education course work I received a contract with Monterey Peninsula Unified School District and taught at Los Arboles Middle School. My middle school students had varying disabilities. The focus in my classroom was to determine what each student needed to succeed. It is important for me to determine what motivates each student to learn, what their interests are and what is important to them. I wanted the student to see how each lesson was valuable to their future success. I always got my students involved in the classroom with open discussions. Each week my students gave a five minute presentation on a subjec

Kyle W - Cherry Valley, CA 92223 (28.8 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $48.50/hr.
Find out what level the student is at, what their interest are, what the like about learning or hate about learning and go from their. As each person is different and each person learns in their own way. Learning is not hard, finding out how to learn is. As a Merchant Marine and Chief Steward I have taught, tutored, or mentor kids of all ages and backgrounds. My passion when teaching is to try and breakdown the subject to it's most basic level. A level that the person being taught can understand. Having work with kids from different ethnic and educational backgrounds I find this to be very affective and productive. Also, not having been a great student in high school with dyslexia, I have been able to over come these short comings and graduate from collage with honors.

I was a foster parent for fourteen years in which I spent numerous hours with each child weekly working with them to improve their academic skills. I taught a 4th/5th grade class in the 2006/2007 school year. I graduated with a 3.92 GPA where I excelled as a writer. I currently write the company newsletter at my place of employment.

April T - Pioneertown, CA 92268 (29.7 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $40.00/hr.
Education has been my passion and dream for as long as I can remember. Furthermore, I followed my dream and graduated from Cal State California with a Bachelors Degree in Liberal Studies and a concentration in History. Due to my education I am exceedingly familiar with classroom settings and the professionalism that comes with it. I also have accumulated plentiful hours of observations in different classrooms, along with many hours of volunteer help in numerous elementary and preschool classrooms. Within this past year I have done extensive studying for the CSET exam, this studying has furthered my understanding of the elementary educational testing. I truly believe that children are the future and I teach and treat them according to that. Teaching with Understanding is the primary goal that I have. Through my own experience I have learned that every child learns and understands diffe

Sarah B - Winchester, CA 92596 (30.5 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $50.00/hr.
I am passionate about Literature and writing and am therefore knowledgeable on the subjects. I am able to assist students in these fields, however, I do believe in the importance of guiding them in the right direction verses providing them with the answer. I like to help the already existing ideas that students posses, bloom into their own creative masterpiece, instead of continuously proving them with the standard, drone ideas. As an Arizona State graduate, I have spent many years deeply focusing on English Literature. This has expanded my knowledge on the importance of in depth reading and writing. I have tutored both high school seniors and various levels of college students in English Literature and assisted them with their writings. I also have experience with creative writing and editing, during the time I spent as an intern for an online woman's magazine, Kalliope.

Joseph M - menifee, CA 92584 (32.7 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $50.00/hr.
As a graduate from one of the most prestigious schools in the world, I have the training and experience to motivate and improve a child's ability to learn. I have been a music teacher for four years, working with children of all ages; I am currently working with a special needs child to play the piano. In addition to music, I have written many essays and was encouraged to be an english teach by one of my professors at Cal-state Fullerton. I am a very encouraging and positive teacher. Growing up with seven siblings, I have learned that patience is the best virtue and children need a stress-free enviroment. I love to use analogies and stories to motivate children to enjoy the sessions. I always felt that it was my mission not to be the "typical" tutor; I want children to look forward learning.

Cynthia S - 29 Palms, CA 92277 (33.6 mi) - Dyslexia Tutor - $42.00/hr.
I like to have a guide for the daily work and have specific goals every day. However, when someone is interested in a different subject, I like to explore that topic. I think it is very important to keep students alert and motivated, so I like to explore all types of learning expericences. For example, I enjoy working with the special education children, getting them to stretch and walk outside. I like to play music to them and get them to sing along. I also enjoy getting these children to create art and express themselves in short sentences, writing to match their abilties. As an Anthropology major, I was qualified to work as an archaeologist with the Joshua Tree National Park for 7 years. I was responsible for site recognition, recording and records keeping. I also interacted with the public as an employee of the park. I also led my own tour groups, all ages and abilities, into the des
