Emily
PhD Developmental Psychology, expert in neurocognitive special needs
I am a cognitive development expert with 20 years of experience working with children and families with special needs. I completed my PhD in developmental psychology at the UC Davis MIND Institute, where I researched early intervention strategies for children with ASD, FXS, and ADHD. My earlier Master's work included research on developmental dyslexia. I also have a degree in pediatric nursing from The Johns Hopkins University, and before completing my doctorate, I was a home health case manager for families with children with special needs. As a private tutor, I work to create a program tailored for your child that also considers your whole family's specific needs. My goals are always to improve your child's school experience and sense of self-worth, but also to work with you to improve day-to-day household logistics and family-wide functioning. My approach is evidence-based and holistic: I have experience with both ABA and the Early Start Denver Model (ESDM) and I incorporate these principles into my work. I also use "brain training" techniques to address cognitive and information processing deficits that often underlie academic learning difficulties. I focus on anxiety and sensory processing issues; emotion regulation and coping; and social skills training. When appropriate, I will also consider potential factors related to medication and diet. I specialize in working with toddlers, children, and teens, though I have some experience with young adults as well. Please contact me for a full resume and references! Read more

Dominique
Patient UCLA Grad English/Math Tutor with Credential
I have a degree in psychology and I also work with students who have ADHD. Students with ADHD struggle with focusing and completing assignments. Depending on the severity, setting up incentives such as rewards in stickers or prizes before beginning the activity can be helpful. Having the student repeat the directions and the time they are allotted helps them to stay focused. Using a timer and encouraging them to keep working is another strategy I use. If there is a lengthy assignment that takes an hour, I would split it up into 15 minutes interval and have the student take a break in between. Read more
