"Hello. I have a BA in Visual Arts- Graphic Design. I also have my Master's in Education with a Reading Specialization. I have worked with children for 21 years, and I've been in the public schools for 20 years. I have worked with regular education students as well as ESL students, ADHD, autistic, and other special needs students. I have a love of teaching and compassion and patience for children. I enjoy working with them and watching them learn and achieve success. My tutoring methods include testing the child to see at what level he or she is currently. Then, I would establish a plan for how to improve the child's abilities and skills in a specific subject. For reading comprehension, phonics, and word recognition, I have specific techniques and activities that can be done to improve overall reading achievement. I can also assist with homework as well as in the subject of art, such as drawing or art history as well as computer skills and study skills. Background check documentation available upon request." less...
