I am the mom and aunt of dyslexic children, I know the struggles....I've been through the tears and hours of homework. There is no "quick fix" but we can experiment and find what works for you. We need to discover your individual gifts and most effective learning styles first then use those skills to gain confidence and begin improve on the skills that are not so strong. If you have given up we need to find your motivation. My son at thirteen was ready to quit life, in one year we turned it around and he became an A/B student and loved school and life.
Every child is different I think it's first important to take time to build trust and figure out your learning style. in the meantime we have to peddle through the school as ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have a caring and mutually respectful relationship with students. I am very creative in my lesson planning, often use hands-on activities, draw from various teaching resources, and differentiate for all levels of learners. I like to bolster the confidence of struggling learners with lots of positive reinforcement and encouragement. I like to illicit higher level thinking from all students.
As the Title I Math Specialist at Peyton Elementary for three years, I had the opportunity to work with struggling learners as well as high achieving students in a small classroom setting. This on-the-job experience combined with numerous professional development credits earned in various areas such as differentiated instruction, math/literature connections, and mathematics pedagogy as well as two years of service on Peyton Elementary's "Child Study" team gave me the necessary background to be ... read more
