I am a veteran teacher of special education. I specialize in working with students who have learning difficulties, and have worked with students of all ages and abilities. I most recently worked for Lake County Schools as an ASD teacher, but the bulk of my work has been with students with mental handicaps. I am also available to work with your child on behavioral concerns, as I have a background in this.

I have tutored students in reading and writing, as well as Pre-algebra, Algebra 1, and Elementary Math.

I am very aware of the FCAT for elementary ages up to sixth grade, and can assist your student in preparing for this. Students whom I have tutored who had scored low the prior year made significant gains after working with me.

I also have a knack for making reading fun for students. Those who previously did not like to read for pleasure seem to develop a love for reading. I think that is important!

I am working on my master's degree in reading education. I hope to apply many of the techniques that I learn in class to my student's sessions. I am excited for the opportunity to go back to school and reboot my skills!

I am also available to provide tutoring via Skype if you are not in the immediate area, or even if you are! Just contact me to find out how.

In addition, I am available to home school parents who just need some ideas on where to find lessons. I can also provide you with weekly work so that you may spend your time working with your child. This would be a cost-saving measure for you and would make things so much easier.

Reading

I am currently working on my master's degree in reading education. I look forward to applying the skills gained from class to my tutoring sessions.

I have been very successful in raising reading levels quite significantly, and have helped students who did not pass FCAT in the past to acquire passing scores.

Elementary (K-6th)

I have worked with children with special needs in the classroom setting for the past 20 years. I have experience teaching those with learning disabilities, autism, behavior disorders, mental retardation, and physical handicaps. I have a state of Florida teaching certificate in Exceptional Student Education grades K-12 and am certified in Elementary Education grades K-6. In addition, I have tutored all types of students from those needing a little help and prep for the FCAT, to those who have significant... Read More

Phonics

I have worked with students will special needs for over twenty years. I specialize in those with reading difficulties. I have tutored many elementary students in reading and have had great success turning struggling readers into proficient readers who love to read. I have used several reading programs including SRA, Storytown, Earobics, and Headsprout.

Special Needs

I am certified K-12 in exceptional education in Florida. I have been a special education teacher for over twenty years. My specialty is working with students with low incidence disabilities and those with autism. I am a graduate of Florida State University and studied Mental Retardation.

ADD/ADHD

I have worked with students with ADHD and ADD for several years, both in the classroom and in a tutoring, one on one setting. I feel that my experience with even the most severe students with attention deficits enables me to devise strategies that help to both motivate and overcome those difficulties.

Aspergers

I have worked with students with Aspergers for several years. Most of my experience is with students at the elementary level, but I have also worked with older students. I also provided training to parents of those students with Aspergers, and to teachers and other professionals who work with these students as well.

Autism

I worked as a teacher of students with autism for many years. Most recently, I worked in a self-contained classroom with those students who have Aspergers and PDD. I feel that my experience and success with these students makes me an excellent tutor for them.
