Special Education Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Pawhuska, OK

Students can be visual, auditory or tactile learners, and often many students are a combination of each learning style. I like to make learning fun and I use various unique strategies with students that fit into each individual’s way of learning. I encourage students to ask questions and create a dialogue between teacher and student.

I am compassionate and patient and I challenge my students in every aspect of their learning. With degrees in both Psychology and Religion
