LeAnn R. - Menlo Park, CA 94025 (12.8 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I have been in education for 16 years. I specialize in working with students with ADD/ADHD, specific learning disabilities as well as students who underachieve. I have a Master's Degree in Special Education and have successfully worked with students all over the Bay Area to help them realize their full potential. Not all students are successful and the trick is to identify the reasons behind the lack of success. The issues that students have with school are diverse; procrastination, lack of organization, failure to plan, lack of awareness, ineffective habits, learning disabilities, and differences are all possible explanations for school failure. I work with students one on one to help them pinpoint where things break down for them and then work with them to find strategies to help them manage the skills and material they are asked to learn and master. I am there to guide, not just

Gina P - East Palo Alto, CA 94303 (14.1 mi) - Special Education Tutor - $34.00/hr.
Children are very precious individuals. Having the opportunity to work with children is something I enjoy very much. I belive every child deserves the opportunity to learn. I believe that a teacher needs to faciliate the environment for effective learning to take place. Children learn in many different ways and each child has it in them to learn they just need to be given the opportunity to explore and discover. As a teacher I believe that learning through play especially with young children is a very crucial ingredient for learning. I want to provide a learning environment for all who come to me, and help assist in their journey of education. As a graduate of the Early Childhood field, working with children is something that I have always enjoyed. I had opportunity to further my education with a teaching credential in Early Childhood Special Education while teaching with a school
