Dianne K. - Farmington, UT 84025 (13.4 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I Have worked for the Davis County School district for 12 years. The last few years I have been working intervention for students who are not performing at grade level. I have learned that not all kids can learn the way they are taught in school. My 8 year old is dyslexic. I Have studied the Orton-Gilingham multisensory approach to reading and spelling. I have also learned to engage children in activities that are fun and creative. I will not be doing the same teaching style as there school. ORTON-Gilingham multi sensory approach. Math without words until the concept is mastered. Using lots of manipulatives including video games, that teach concepts.

Peggy M. - American Fork, UT 84003 (21.6 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $27.50/hr.
My son & myself have Dyslexia & ADHD, plus, my son has a few other learning disability's, so the experts say. We have learned together how to make all of this work for us. I researched a lot & learned how to teach him how to make it all this work for him. He was on low dose med's for 6 months, I took him off because he learned the difference in 7th grade. No reason for any more med's. I do not think kids should be labeled as "disabled" because others think different then they do! My son thinks way different then my daughter but that doesn't mean either one is wrong. My son is very successful at his job & he is now a boss & he loves his job. He is 31 years old and a great person, everyone like him.

Alison C - Salt Lake City, UT 84101 (0.2 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $39.50/hr.
I enjoy working with parents and children in facilitating their child's success. I believe in more of a kinesthetic approach and feel that children learn best 'hands-on.' I also feel that children and educators are crucial in the development of families and society. I am passionate about bettering the lives of children everywhere. I would love to assist a child on a one-on-one basis, being a tutor/mentor. Ever since I was introduced to American Sign Language (ASL), I have been deeply fascinated in the language and its speakers. A year after my initial experience with ASL, I decided to create my own Bachelor's Degree at the University of Utah. I was able to design curriculum pertaining to my desired field of interest. The classes I took were mostly education related. I had several classes in education psychology, multi-cultural education, diversity and culture. My major emphasis

Aaron G - Salt Lake City, UT 84102 (1.2 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $35.50/hr.
My teaching style varies depending on the type of students I am teaching to because I believe that each student has a particular learning style that they find easier. I think that it is important to find the types of learning that each student finds easiest to understand, and tailor the course so that it works well with their particular learning abilities. This can easily be done in a classroom setting as well as an individual basis. In either case, while I am teaching I think that it is important to understand the topic we are on before moving to the next one. Slowing down to completely grasp each idea helps students to gain confidence in their learning ability, and actually helps the classroom or individual to progress much faster overall. Giving students a hope for their future ability to learn is one of the best things I can do for them. In preparation for college, I knew that in ord

marie b - slc, UT 84105 (2.6 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $39.00/hr.
I love teaching and I am really passionate about making sure that my students achieve a deeper meaning of a subject. I like to take time to work with kids and make sure that they really understand the meaning of certain concepts. When teaching math I like to work with lots of hands on materials and visual aids. I believe that all kids are capable of learning and achieving at the highest standards. I am currently a teacher at the Open Classroom in SLC. I have a full endorsement in Math. I have taught math for the last 3 years. I mostly teach grades 5-8. I also have an elementary degree so i also have taught all core subjects in 5th and 6th grade.

William B - Salt Lake City, UT 84119 (3.3 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $42.50/hr.
In college I had the opportunity to work as a peer tutor and also as a tutor for high school students through the Upward Bound program. I did this via face to face as well as through phone tutoring. Upon graduating I was lucky enough to get a full time job with the Upward Bound program and continued to tutor as well as train tutors. Seven years ago I had the opportunity to enter the teaching arena and have enjoyed a wide array of subjects. A teacher should treat their students as consumers. As consumers those students need to have their needs and expectations met. Every student learns differently and expects the instructor to be the expert in the subject matter. Being that expert the instructor should have and show a passion for the subject that makes the students want to know more. Each student is a valuable member of the class and as such has valuable experience and opinions that can e

Lucy U - Salt Lake City, UT 84106 (3.6 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $36.50/hr.
My style is to focus on a person's strengths and to build from there. I prefer to ask questions to get the individual to do their own thinking instead of giving them "canned" responses. I am fairly patient and easygoing but set firm limits that I expect to be respected. I believe everyone is capable of achieving their highest potential if they are given the right tools and encouragement. While I was an undergrad I tutored one student from Mexico and asisted her with her papers she had to write to ensure proper use of the English language. Then I tutored another student who was a year behind me in the nursing program. I have earned a BSN in Nursing and a MN in Adult Psychosocial Nursing. Over the years I have informally assisted my sisters with their homework and my niece with exploring ideas and concepts so she could settle on the best one for her and the assignment she needed to complet

carla p - salt lake city, UT 84115 (4.4 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $37.50/hr.
In the pursuit of my own education I have learned that a teacher who is truly in this field because they love it are the ones who are best at it. That dedication stays with students for a lifetime. Because there are different stratagies that will work for different students, my focus is on finding a technique that will work for a particular student.With my patience and determination I can help provide an upstanding education for students. As a graduate with my BA in English I have developed by ability to discuss and discover new solutions and alternative ideas. This has also inhanced my skills in communication, both oral and written. Over the past year I have also done substitute teaching at a local charter school. This experience has furtherd my desire to interact and contribute to our youth.

MARIA FE R - North Salt Lake, UT 84054 (4.8 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I always observe and learn the person's attitude and characteristics, as it will help me a lot to enculcate learning. I love to talk and teach. I love kids. And I believe no matter how difficult a child can achieve efficiency in learning, there is always a way to do it. For me teaching is an Art. There is always a room to make learning happen. Each child is unique and has the potential, but one great factor to mold the child's potential, is his learning environment and support from people around him. I want to create a child who love to be taught and value education, because I believe Education is the greatest wealth a person can ever have. I graduated Bachelors Degree Major in Political Science and took second course on Special Education under Graduate Studies at the University of the Visayas.

Julie A - Salt Lake City, UT 84119 (5.1 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $36.00/hr.
For six years I have enjoyed a "love affair" with teaching. Beginning with two years as an elementary school tutor, I was able to gain experience in teaching all subjects, and specialized in reading for students with learning disabilities. Once I began graduate school I began tutoring undergraduate students in a variety of subjects within the colleges of humanities and social and behavioral science. I also worked as a teaching assistant for two years, during which time I was the primary teacher for 1/3 of each semester. I will be substitute teaching for several Anthropology classes this fall while a professor is out of the country for six weeks. I am a very versatile tutor who believes in adjusting my own teaching style to fit the particular learning style of my students. I am extremely patient, kind, and creative. My goal is to make learning relevant and relatable, because those q

Candice K - North Salt Lake, UT 84054 (5.6 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I enjoy teaching children, working with them to find their talents, and strengths. All children have the ability to learn, each child learns differently so it is important to find out each child's learning style so that learning is made easier for them. I have worked with special needs children, for three years. I believe that children learn through using their different senses. I am patient, easy going and have the students best interest in mind. I believe that all children can be successful in their education, and I love being part of that success. Graduated from University of Phoenix with my B.A. in psychology, currently enrolled in the Masters of special education program from the University of Phoenix.

Samuel H - Salt Lake City, UT 84118 (7.6 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $40.50/hr.
Education has been a major goal in my life and as I achieve that goal I find my self transitioning into helping others with the same goal. Aside from 10 years experience in my industry I have a Bachelors degree in Business Finance and an MBA in Finance and Financial Planning. During my career I have always played a service role of educating our clients and customers on finance, banking, trading, computers, economics, and other areas. Aside from teaching my own children ages 5, 3 and 2 I am constantly involved with youth programs. Between the youth programs I participate in and my volunteer work I have gained excellent communication skills allowing me to communicate with different ages, backgrounds, languages, and disabilities. My teaching style utilizes multiple methods. One of my talents is the ability to recognize when the light goes on and people understand what is being taught.
