A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that every child is able to learn and that all have the right to achieve their maximum potential. I am structured in my approach but strive to listen to the child's opinions. In the past, my classroom rules were based upon Jim Fay's Love and Logic; essentially, I will treat you with respect, and feel free to do anything that does not cause a problem for anyone else.
I have 31 years of teaching both learning disabled and cognitively disabled children. I have been trained extensively in working with youngsters who are dyslexic and dyscalculic ( math disabilities). In addition I have taught children who were on the spectrum, including those with Aspergers. I am proficient at assessing a child's strengths and weaknesses and developing a learning program which will build upon strengths in order to address underlying weaknesses.

Read More About Kate R...

Tutored 2-3 days a week for many elementary school students when I was in high school. Subjects included introductory Spanish, Grammar, Writing, Composition, Writing, Typing skills and techniques, Study skills, and reading. Three years of experience in summer tutoring, helping students prepare for next grade level through workbooks, hands-on activities, and refreshing activities to recall main concepts and skills taught the previous year of school.
I try to get to know what tactics help each student succeed in the best way possible. According to what the student's interests and hobbies are, I create a tutor and study plan specific to them to help them succeed.

Making School Work Rewarding Again for Your Student

I blend laughter with learning, hard work with praise, and reward students efforts to improve their work. Every child is unique and special, I tailor my educational style to the needs of each child.
I taught in a private school in Chicago before beginning my Masters Program at DePaul University for my Masters Degree in Elementary Education. I will graduate CumLaude from DePaul in November of 2012 with my degree and certification along with my Middle School Social Studies endorsement. I am a professional who is driven to help students do their best.
