Dorothy
Highly Qualified Tutor in Special Education/Reading/Math
Teaching children with ADD/ADHD can be challenging, but very rewarding. I am patient and understand that each child with ADD/ADHD learns differently and at different paces. Open and frequent communication with student and parent is paramount in the success of each student. I try to find out what interests the students and incorporate that into the lesson being taught, especially if it is something physical. When we have a session it has to be away from distractions and I provide breaks to allow them to move about and refocus. I check to ensure that all of the directions/work/etc. are written d Read more

Pam
I love to teach, and have others love to learn!
I am certified in Special Education, trained in IDEA, 504 and RTI (response to intervention) and have more than 20 years of teaching students with ADD, ADHD, those who have behavior disorders and are emotionally disturbed. I provide counseling to parents/advocates, have written many IEP's and 504s. I do my best to make any suggestions, goals understandable and user friendly. It is not unusual for me to speak with a student, parent/guardian on the phone to help them work through a situation or meet on a weekend to discuss ideas when they feel they are at a crossroad.

As an experienced teacher of 22 years, I have worked extensively with children with ADD/ADHD. In general, I find these children to be quite intelligent and able to learn as long as the learning environment is suitable. In the classroom they should sit near the front of the instructional area and should be gently guided to maintain attention. I also find that allowing them to stand or move during instruction can be helpful as long as its not distracting to those around them. Tactile activities also improves concentration and attention such as drawing and/or using manipulatives. Read more

I am a certified special education teacher. I have experience with ADD/ADHD students, Aspberger's/ spectrum Disorder students and mild to moderate disabilities. ADD/ADHD students require a lot of patience and monitoring to keep them on task. They need assistance with organization and methods to keep themselves organized. Often these students miss important information in class as they have a classic tendency to hear only the first and last things said. Tutoring will provide the missing information to fill in those educational gaps. Read more

I have been teaching special education students for 16 years. I have a BS in Education with a minor in Psychology, and a Master's in Special Education. I also have cerification from NYS in special education. I've taught many different types of students with many different disabilities. A math lesson I use for ADHD students in integers is by starting them off with the understanding of the vocabulary needed to be successful. I would write the words on the blackboard. I would then ask if anyone knows what each word means. I would go over each word, reapeting the vocabulary word many times. If f Read more
