Language Arts is one of my top subjects! I am a certified English/Language Arts teacher with professional classroom teaching experience in this area of study.

I have four years of teaching experience for both private and public programs as well as in traditional and online settings. I have experience teaching Secondary English/Language Arts, specifically at the middle school level. I have inclusion and special education classroom experience working with students with special needs, including ADD, ADHD, Autism, and Asperger's Syndrome. My experience is mainly in urban settings and, as such, I have developed and taught lesson for struggling readers and underperforming students, even with limited resources.
My teaching style is one that fosters a love for reading and I encourage my students to develop reading comprehension skills that will make reading not only more fluid but also more enjoyable. I use a variety of "text to" connections that will engender students to make personal and real-world connections to their reading. I emphasiz ... read more

Enriching and Inspiring Tutor

Throughout the last 17 years, I have worked as a General and Special Education teacher. As a Special Education teacher, I have mentored other educators, lead leadership teams and coordinated staff development workshops for educators. I have also tutored students in Pre-K through 12th grade in a private learning center and through in-home environments. My educational methods focus on praise and positive reinforcement. My teaching approach incorporates hands-on learning methods that foster a strong understanding of academic content while building confidence. I would love the opportunity to speak with you today about scheduling a tutoring session on-line or at a location of your choice.

Ready to love learning

I currently work as a substitute teacher at Riverside Military Academy. I've worked with elementary children and teenagers extensively. My most recent position serves twenty and thirty somethings in their personal and spiritual formation. I have published my writing, acted on stage, spoken before thousands and mentored dozens. My personal intent is to explore life, discover new things, tackle hard challenges and inspire others to do the same. I believe in the value of the individual and don't believe one-size-fits-all.
Adaptive. I have a background in experiential education and believe that the method is not as important as the end result of having assimilated, understood, and taught back the information. I believe in creative learning techniques and hope to inspire a love of learning alongside the discipline of learning itself.

Dedicated to helping children accomplish personal goals!

I am patient, go at the students level, and believe in the use various types of visual aids and hands on to keep my students engaged. Students learn and retain information quicker with continual repetition; however each student will grasp the information different from another and some will take more repetition than others.
I have been working with special needs students with various disabilities for 10 years. I have worked with students ranging from ADHD/ADD to those who are bed ridded and need toileting assistance. I have also had to accommodate with feeding and those who are transitioning out of high school. I can teach students how to read and write and how to ride the city but to where they need to go and make it back home. I have also taught cooking and hygiene skills.

More About This Tutor...

My approach is patient, and I delight in allowing students to make discoveries with purposeful guidance. The overarching goal is to show students that they are capable of doing great things and achieving what they may have doubted was possible for them. That is what truly gives me joy in the tutoring process; not merely instructing, but empowering students.
First and foremost, I am passionate about helping children and youth learn, overcome obstacles, and believe in themselves, whether that be academically or otherwise. Over the years, I have learned and had the opportunity to work with and encourage children and teenagers with various behavioral issues, ranging from Aspergers Syndyrome to anxiety and anger issues,so I have a great deal of patience with students whom others consider difficult to work with.

Let's figure that out together.
I helped elementary kids in highschool ('08-'09). I was a peer facilitator for highschool Biology and Advanced Placement Psychology ('09), and I have various experience helping others understand the subjects they have trouble with. I'm not a know-it-all (math is my weakness) so I understand the other side of the coin and how sometimes you just need a different way to learn.

I have worked in the writing center at my university editing student papers. I have strong research experience and excellent standardized tests scores.
