My comments on tutoring Dyslexia : I use a multisensory approach espoused by the Orton-Gillingham approach to reading instruction. Sight, sound, and neurological pathways to develop reading skills are utilized.

I am a patient, easy-going man with high standards and expectations for my students.
I have been a special needs teacher (k-8 moderate disabilities) for seven years, and an Orton-Gillingham instructor for eight years. Prior to my certifications I worked as a volunteer in Boston, Weymouth, and Quincy schools. I earned a Bachelor's in Literature and history in 1993, and am confident about my ability to work with all types of students in all areas of academics. I am a teacher in a substantially separate classroom for children with emotional disabilities. I also work with autistic children each summer in a social skills program. I have co-taught in the general education classroom over the years, and consider myself experienced and well-schooled in all facets of special and general education. I have also tutored children with reading disabilities over the years with great success (no m ... read more

My comments on tutoring Dyslexia : As a dyslexic student myself, I have intimate knowledge of the possible difficulties with learning a new language.

During the last two years of my undergraduate career I worked as an Arabic and Economics tutor in the Academic Resource Center at Tufts University. With respect to Arabic, I worked with Beginner and Intermediate level students - extensively using Al-Kitaab. Being dyslexic, I have an intimate knowledge of the difficulties that dyslexic students face when learning a new language, especially with an abjad like Arabic. I also have considerable "teaching" experience due to my time working as a personal trainer.
As a student, I understand the importance of a good teacher. I always try and help the student find and correct their own mistakes, rather than merely giving them the corrections. I have found that the listening is one of the most important tools that a tutor has at their disposal: in my experience, the student knows where their weaknesses and difficulties lie, even if they are u ... read more

Reading Tutoring - Wilson, Orton-Gillingham, Lively Letters

Reading intervention at Cherubino Health Center is effective and fun Every lesson is tailored specifically for each of my students to be exactly what he or she needs to succeed. Our individualized lessons are explicit, sequential, cognitive, cumulative, phonics-based, multisensory and emotionally sound. Each lesson is paced to hold the student's interest, reinforce previous skills, introduce new skills in explicit, small steps, build on strengths, and is completely positive. Reading is taught with a minimum of the “exceptions to the rules” that plague so many struggling readers. Students learn that English makes a lot more sense than most people know because it is based on predictable syllabic, spelling, Anglo-Saxon, Greek and Latin patterns. Mastery of reading is achieved because we stay with each new concept until it is assimilated accurately, fluently and permanently as we continua ... read more

Individualized instruction

Brain based instruction focusing on individual learning styles.
I taught for seven years in public education. My experience spans from grades 5-8. In that time, I worked with a diverse population with varying needs. My classroom was inclusionary which required modification of instruction, and learning about a variety of learning disabilities. Many of my students were ESL, as well.

A Little Bit About Me...

As an MIT graduate, I was particularly driven to excel in science and mathematics courses so as to be able to apply these to engineering and technology problems. I subsequently obtained two doctorate degrees: one in medicine and the second in law. I am currently working on the development and patenting of medical devices to improve medical care for patients. I have always loved teaching and tutoring and have done it for many years to supplement my income. My students tell me that I can explain the material in a very understandable way.
I really love teaching and finding different ways of using analogies and similarities to explain difficult concepts. I have been very successful in teaching the sciences and mathematics courses in an understandable way. I believe that everyone is capable of learning the material, it simply needs to be presented in the correct way. ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a four-year teacher, I have had the opportunity to create my own philosophy based on my experience. I have taught both regular and special ed. children and have the same philosophy for all my students. I truly believe that every child is capable of learning and as a teacher; I need to identify the best approach to meet the needs of each child. Once I get to learn about their learning style, I can accommodate their needs more efficiently. Every child is unique and has his/her own needs and abilities and deserves to be treated fairly. . I want the students to feel at ease within the classroom and not timid in the learning process. I teach as a constructivist where students not only learn, but internalize their own knowledge. Everything that I teach the children has a purpose. I also use alternative forms of assessment to assess ones students progress throughout the year. This i ... read more

I am firm and consistent always asking for the students' imput. My style will vary with the assignment at hand, also.

My tutoring involves following classroom plans in Reading, Writing, English, and related skills and subjects.

Education is very much my vocation. I began teaching and tutoring during high school, and I have worked with students in every grade from pre-school through freshman year of college. I studied history as an undergraduate because it was a vehicle through which to study all aspects of life, and I always have taken a holistic approach to educating my students. Both history and Educational and Developmental Psychology are fields of study which require considerable writing and research; I am well practiced at both. I studied Art History in college. I am a certified history teacher. Additionally, while in graduate school I supported myself by tutoring all subjects as well as study, writing, and test-taking skills.
I have often found that educators "believe all children can learn". Throughout my career I have put those words into practice. Since graduating from Boston College, I have ... read more
