Tutor in Pawtucket, Rhode Island

I'm an
Individual
I am looking to find part time work tutoring in American Sign Language (ASL), English (reading, writing, speaking, ESL) or general studies. I have over 10 years of classroom experience in special education, five at a school for the Deaf, and 1 in ESL. I am a patient and dedicated tutor looking to help you meet your academic, social and language goals. I have experience with students on the autism spectrum, ADHD/ADD, learning disabilities, medical fragility, intellectual and developmental disabilities, Down's Syndrome, cerebral palsy, Deaf/Hard of Hearing students, low vision students, and students with late language acquisition. I have worked with students from toddlers to adults working on academic, social/emotional, language/communication, and behavioral goals. I am great at adapting materials and curriculum to meet student needs and individualize their learning so that they can make the most progress possible for them. I have an interest outside of the classroom in music, video editing, listening to podcasts and playing board games. I can also incorporate these into my teaching and teach the basics of each.

Recommendations

Linden was so patient, and very helpful and went above and beyond my expectations, anyone would be lucky to have him as a tutor he’s so intelligent and really will meet you where your at, and help you grow education wise.

I highly recommend Linden for your tutoring needs. Linden was a classroom aide in my special education classroom for 3 years so I know his teaching abilities well. He consistently goes above and beyond for his students thinking of creative ways to teach and engage them. He is patient and responsive to the needs of all students. If a student is struggling, he works hard to think of ways to differentiate the lesson and teach the student the skill in a new way. I would without reservation recommend Linden as a tutor for your child.

I worked with Linden in a Special Education setting for three years. He was a valuable asset to the classroom through this cooperative, creative and flexible attitude. Linden approached challenges within the classroom with patience and ingenuity to create solutions that met the needs of the student. He consistently initiated timely help to other staff in the classroom during challenging behaviors with a calm demeanor. Linden formed strong bonds with all students through genuine and compassionate interactions that always considered their strengths and interests. He was a consistent contributor to curriculum development by recommending new strategies and resources that would enhance instruction while considering students strengths and challenges. Linden easily and quickly adapted to numerous changes in the classroom environment. Linden's compassionate and considerate demeanor and creative approach to education make him a valuable educator that can adapt to any type of learner.
