Nan S.

Private tutor in Novato, CA

Education

I have a BS degree from Rochester Institute of Technology and a teaching credential from Dominican University of California in elementary teaching in mild/moderate special education.

Experience

I have been a tutor for four years working with a wide range of students from K-8 grade. I work with children from the general population to those with special needs in areas of ADD, autism and children with emotional trama. I work as a tutor instead of a teacher because I enjoy working in a small group or one on one. I like to adapt my lessons to the student's needs and I find this easier to do in a smaller situation. I enjoy establishing a relationship with the student and figuring out the best way to teach them the information. I enjoy using technology to teach the students and try to find a creative way to do it. I want to make the learning fun and not a chore to the student. My style of teaching tends to be more easy going and fun. I try to focus on making it fun and adapt to their needs in a creative way.
