My comments on tutoring Elementary : As a special education teacher with both my special education and multiple subject credentials, I believe in multi-modality teaching, as well as changing activities frequently to keep kids engaged. I have supported many children in the development of foundational and actual skills from ages pre-school to 12th grade in reading, writing, math, study skills, social skills, and any other core subjects as needed. I have worked with curriculums such as Saxin phonics, Silver Burdett and Ginn, Abekka, Hugh Mifflin, Dolch, Keleidoscope, Slam Math, Touch Math, Step Up to Writing, Explode the Code, Sounds Abound, and Handwriting Without Tears.
As a special education teacher with both my special education and multiple subject credentials, I believe in multi-modality teaching as well as changing activities frequently to keep kids engaged. I also consider myself a "connection specialist." Connecting interpersonally with students and parents creates trust, self confidence, and a desire to learn. My communication, interpersonal skills, and customer service skills are strong, and I come with stellar evaluations from both administration and parents in the charter school system for the past three years. My children look forward to their time with Kimberly. I am able to keep track of their progress with the parent feedback forms that Kimberly gives every week. My son has now been exited from the Special Education program and his confidence has greatly improved after three years of Kimberly's consistent efforts." Lorraine -parent/educa ... read more
