About Linda


Bio

I have an EdD from University Missouri St. Louis and an MEd from Central Oklahoma State University. My educational background has been focused on special education in both a public school and university setting. I have recently retired, but miss the opportunity to work with students on an individual basis. My skills and talents in working with children to help them acquire the tools needed for their ongoing success in school-based programs is a strength.

I have an EdD from University Missouri St. Louis and an MEd from Central Oklahoma State University. My educational background has been focused on special education in both a public school and university setting. I have recently retired, but miss the opportunity to work with students on an individual basis. My skills and talents in working with children to help them acquire the tools needed for their ongoing success in school-based programs is a strength.

Please contact me at your convenience to discuss your expectations regarding your child's needs. I am hopeful we will be able to help determine if I can be the instructional support that can facilitate the greatest growth for their future academic success.

I have extensive experience in working with students of all age levels to build their strengths in all areas related to basic English. Instructional and teaching skills related from basic word recognition to paragraph/theme development are considered to be exemplary.

I have provided direct instruction, developed individualized curriculum, and assessed progress with students identified with disabilities, as well as those who were determined to be 'at-risk.' I am familiar with student evaluation tools, as well as with school district procedures regarding student support strategies.

There is no question in my mind that I will be able to provide the greatest instructional support that any student might require to achieve their goals. My skills, experience, and talents ensure that any student I work with can make progress and growth. Any student's needs become a personal aspiration for me - their growth and success become vitally important to me.

I have extensive experience in special education classrooms working with students. I have extensive experience in special education classrooms working with students of all ages and identified disabilities. I have also worked with undergraduate and graduate students in required teacher certification courses. I consider my skills in curriculum development and design to be exemplary. I am currently tutoring a 3rd grade student with deficits in spelling and writing. These skills have improved according to his mother and his classroom teacher. I pride myself on being able to relate to the students I tutor and expect and receive positive student growth. I look forward to hearing from you regarding the possibility of working with your son.
Reading

Reading

Reading assessment, diagnosis, and instruction have been an extensive part of my education and experience while working with students with identified special needs. Teaching strategies for sight word identification and reading comprehension are considered to be an area of expertise. I have several areas of educational certification that emphasize teaching remedial skills including specific learning disabilities. In addition, I have supervised classroom teachers and evaluated their skill and progress with students. I truly enjoy working with students who have reading problems because I see success for both the student and myself.
