Ashley Frankian- Special Educator, Ell instructor

I am a strategic based teacher that enhances my students learning through finding their own particular learning style. Each student has and individualized learning approach to their studies. Once they find what works for them, they will succeed. It is my job as an educator to help them find that out. I like to use a multi modality approach so that students learn all different types of learning styles, this way they may pick and choose certain styles that work for them. For example, If the students are writing about a short story they have read, to help them get their thoughts on to paper, I would assist them with graphic organizers to prompt them to list of jot down vocabulary words or important people places or things in the story however, in a manner that helps them to do this with a proper beginning, middle and end. All of this is visually designed on the graphic organizer to help the ... read more

Typing and Writing Skills

I've taken writing classes at Northern Essex College. My typing has been about 30-35 wpm when i was younger, now I've increased my skill to 45-50 wpm and my wpm continues to increase. My typing and writing skills are high enough for me to teach them. I love seeing someone's skill improve over time. To when they first start as beginners until they reach that point of experts.
I have not taught professionally, but I am more than capable of teaching someone. I am currently helping my mom with computers and typing, since she needs the skill for work. I am a very patient and understanding person that will do my absolute best. Ive also helped teach some of my co workers at my old job as a security officer. My supervisors would almost always assign me to train the newcomers.

My comments on tutoring Writing Skills : Helping students develop, organize, and draft written works using "chunking" strategies and goal setting.

I take a brief, solution-focused, strengths-based approach to working with children. I believe that there is much more to be gained from positivity, mutual understanding, and compassion than from mere drilling exercises or behavioral principle. I also believe that building a constructive and meaningful relationship with each individual student is crucial to the success of any tutoring program.
I have two years of experience working in public schools with children across a wide spectrum of ability. My role as school psychologist intern has prepared me to work individually with children in both regular and special education settings. I have also spent the past two years working with undergraduate college students at Tufts University to help them better their time management and study strategies. Working with students to assess barriers to learning and helping them overcome those obst ... read more

More About This Tutor...

As a Visual Arts Teacher and Special Educator, I am a resourceful, energetic person with a commitment to fostering lifelong learning in students. I am positive, outgoing, and approachable, with a talent for drawing out young people and putting them at ease. My philosophy in education is that all children are capable of being successful in school and life and their experiences and accomplishments should feel both enjoyable and rewarding through their own desires and perseverances. Given the rapid advancements in technology, I have come to realize that students can access much of the information needed to be successful in life. With this in mind and given the ever changing classroom philosophies around methods and instruction, I believe teachers’ curriculum and lesson plans can also include ways to support their roles as facilitators in a classroom where the teacher then guides student ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I like to get to the point of certain problems, such as reading the child/student when I see them, ask them some questions about the subjects they need help in and why they need help. I have worked with Infants-School age for over 5 years, and enjoy being there to help someone in need. I believe in giving back, because so many of us are blessed already.
As an early childhood teacher, I have had several opportunities to help children (school age), to do homework. I also was a tutor in high school to a boy for just Algebra, which then turned around to being all of his subjects and helping him keep on track. The hardest thing for me was that he had only lived in the U.S. for four years, and had trouble speaking English. After each session of tutoring, I would grab the Scrabble board, which encouraged him to use more words, learn new words, and have fun while doing so.
