I am just starting my business. I would like the business to grow to where I am able to offer, exectuve functioning classes, job skills training, buddy peer programs, cooking classes, etc. This company will provide accademic tutoring, as well as, other essential skills that the school system tends to leave out. As a teacher, I see that the school systems have failed students with disabilities. My goal is to offer additional services that will prepare them for life. I will focus on creating inclusive opportunities and preparing them for a future of independence.
As a classroom teacher, I have felt inadequate and not able to meet the needs of all of my students. Many of the children require that one-on-one instruction which does not happen often. I love tutoring because I see the growth and progress the kids make and more rapidly than in the classroom.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
Before meeting with the students, I will have a consultation with parents. I also would like to view their current IEP and have student and parent complete questionaires. Parents are my greatest resource and I really try and stay true to the goals they are focussed on for their child. After reviewing everything, I will plan lessons based on the student individual needs. After I have built a repoire with the student, I will informally and formally assess him on the areas of concern and continue to provide data driven instruction.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a Master in Special Education and a mild/moderate and moderate/severe credential. I also hold a valid teaching credential in Ca. I have 10+ years of teaching students with all disabilities and from grades K-12th. I have recently been tutoring and find this to be more rewarding than a classroom teacher. I am also currently working in a classroom, but would like to grow my business and commit full time.
