The focus of my work is remote synchronous, intensive, multisensory instruction, and the goal is for students to achieve independence with their school work.
The focus of my work is remote synchronous, intensive, multisensory instruction, and the goal is for students to achieve independence with their school work.
What I do
I work virtually live with students, most of whom are unique learners and need specific sensory cognitive instruction so they can become independent readers. I work with students of all ages (yes, adults too!) who struggle with reading and/or reading comprehension, and more. I also work with young children teaching them pre-reading skills. I have been doing this for over 20 years and love it!
Unique Approach
Students usually have problems accessing information because of a differences in their auditory, visual or language processing system. Thus, I work on the challenging area by stimulating that particular part of the brain. I do this with specific and differentiated multisensory stimulation. All work is performed virtually through Google Classroom while using a Microsoft Teams virtual whiteboard where materials can also be shared when they are needed.
The areas that I cover are as follows: phonemic awareness, orthographic processing, receptive and expresive language, and concept imagery as they apply to:
1) Reading Fluency and Spelling
2) Oral and Written Language Comprehension and Expression
3) Organization and Study Skills
6) Spanish
7) English
8) Pre-reading skills
Many of the students I work with have a learning disability, ranging from Dyslexia to ADHD to Autism to 2e and everything in between. Certainly, I also work with students who might just need extra support or gifted students who want to improve upon their already strong skills. I typically service students between the ages of 3 years old to adult.
The environment that I provide for students is not one of a learning center. I do not train inexperienced tutors to work with my students. I personally craft and deliver their own unique remote curriculum.
