Susan

Certified Tutor

My continuous evolvement as an educator and the understanding that students learn in different ways, has led me towards
multi-sensory learning that is active rather than passive. When I work with students, their learning styles and needs for engagement are at the forefront.
Daily, I educate students who learn differently, and success has come to my students when I scaffold to make the abstract more concrete. I have incorporated tactile boards, sky writing, active movement, as well as many anchoring visuals.
Such student success has also come through a gradual release method that I use as a framework for my lessons. This includes modeling, guided practice, independent practice and a wrap-up closure.
Working 1:1 gives me the opportunity to deeply differentiate to my students' specific needs. I have experience teaching students with dyslexia and dysgraphia.
As I create lessons, the focal point that drives such planning revolves around the needs of my students.
If you are interested in working with me, I'll make sure to fully hear your students needs to make sure that we are working towards a common goal. I've had experience collaborating with classroom teachers as well.
Please also check out my resume so you can see my credentials and teaching experiences. I look forward to the opportunity to work with you and your child towards academic growth.
