Greetings! Thank you for reading my profile. I have been a tutor for over 5 years specializing in reading, reading comprehension & writing. I was also a behavior interventionist for over two years for School Districts, as well as private companies. I received my BA in Communications. It is a fact the above mentioned skills cross over to all subjects. History typically presents a problem if a student is unable to comprehend and write about the curriculum. My goal is to teach my students these skills and apply them to any class they are enrolled in today and for their future.

I am a master at the 5 paragraph essay and translating reading material to increase reading comprehension.

As a Behavior Interventionist for over 2 years, I have experience utilizing PECS, Discreet Trial, and community outings.

I was a Behavior Interventionist for two years at the Tustin Unified School District in Orange County California and for one year with a private company Autism Behavior Solutions in Monrovia California. I would create stimuli and behavioral plans utilizing PECS, and the Discreet Trial Method. I would then implement those plans with students age ranges 5-18 in a classroom and/or at their homes. During home visits parents often scheduled community outings to apply behavioral plans in either a retail store, park, or restaurant. For higher functioning students I was also responsible for tutoring them in various academic subjects and grade levels. I was also a Service Coordinator for Valley Mountain Regional Center in Modesto California for nine months. As a Service Coordinator, I was responsible for coordinating medical services for children with a variety of Developmental Disabilities, which included diagnoses along the Autism Spectrum.

Mike does really good with my son, and always keeps me informed on how the session went. My son is also very shy and was able to open up to Mike real quick.
