Oxon Hill Private Tutors for In-Home Tutoring

About: I have been working in special education for over 19 years. I have taught diverse groups of students with ADD/ADHD, autism, Asperger’s Syndrome, learning disabilities, speech impairments, and non-compliant behavior. My skills in differentiated instruction, assistive technology, and multi-sensory lesson planning allow me to meet the needs of every student. My years of experience have taught me the value of patience and encouragement in the special education classroom. I work closely with each student, providing the individualized support and praise they require. I also make sure to keep their family and extended family connected and any related services providers involved, to encourage the success of each student, both in and outside of the classroom. I’ve truly appreciated and learned from every child and every family I have worked with; I cannot imagine having any other job.

About: I earned my PhD in Education, with a focus on teaching reading and writing, from the University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill. I also have an undergraduate degree in education and a masters’ degree in reading. I have many years of teaching experience in the United States and abroad from elementary through graduate school. Tutoring reading and writing allows me to get to know the learner, identify strengths and weaknesses, and develop and implement an educational plan. I love helping students become successful! I enjoy reading, movies, baking and travel.
