Let your knowledge shine through ...
Over 20 years ago, I was a college sophomore who had a difficult time getting through my freshman year. Classes seemed so much bigger and the organization required to get all of the work done seemed so much more difficult to me than high school did. I spoke with my adviser and was recommended to get some academic testing done. I was diagnosed with this thing called ADD and had not idea what it was or how exactly my affected my ability to learn, but at least I had a place to begin.

I am a developmental psychology student at Liberty University. At the college I tutored at, I tutored to special needs kids and I nanny special needs children. I have a lot of experience designing curriculum that fits their learning style. I deal with Autism in the same way I deal with Aspergers.

I have an extensive background in teaching students with unique learning capabilities. Part of my work experience includes working with languages and teaching students with dyslexia. Dyslexia at its best is a constant annoyance, but at its worst it can interfere with learning to a distraction.

Dyslexia is incurable, but luckily I have discovered ways of helping others overcome some of its unhappy side effects. Read more
