Early intervention: reading, writing, spelling, Orton-Gillingham, PAF
I love helping kids learn to read! Many students struggle with reading, writing and spelling and are not given the right tools to succeed. I have been trained in Preventing Academic Failure (PAF) which is an early intervention program for teaching reading, spelling, and handwriting. It prevents or addresses reading failure in struggling readers and learning disabled. PAF is the most effective adaptation of Orton-Gillingham instruction and provides children with the building blocks they ne... Read more

Robin
SAT/ACT Expert with 15 years experience
My background includes a BS in Education from Cornell University and MEd in English Education from Teachers College, Columbia University. Through the years, I have supported students in writing, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, French and the sciences. Test prep, however, is my favorite because students can develop a high level of anxiety through the process, and it is really wonderful to help diffuse that anxiety and demystify the entire test taking process. I have been working with stu... Read more

Lady Noah knows that there are no prizes for predicting rain - prizes only for building Arks! She learned that from her husband, Noah. My goal in tutoring is the same as hers - to focus on solutions rather than problems. I look for unique solutions that will help each of my students achieve success and build confidence. I try to build a rapport starting with where they are and I use understanding, patience and humor to gain their trust. My unique executive and academic background help ... Read more

If you are looking for someone to help you where others have failed, or if you just want the best, then I'm definitely your tutor. Key focus must be on the student overcoming any mental barriers he/she may have to understanding the subjects. I teach concepts first and test taking second. If you know the concepts, the test results follow, but test taking strategies are also emphasized. I specialize in college level courses but am willing to tutor the highly motivated college-bound high sch... Read more

I absolutely love working with students. I believe each student is unique. Every child learns in a different way, and I try my hardest to have them succeed in their own learning way. I plan to work with each student as an individual. Each and every student is unique in their learning styles. It is about adapting work to meet their style, to explain things in ways that will make sense. Children are our future and we need to prepare them :) I'm currently a certified special education (K-12),... Read more
