My name is Zoya and I am here if you need help in Algebra 1 and anything under that! I know sometimes it can be difficult to learn from your teachers because it isn't as easy for most as some make it seem (trust me as a high school student, I know), that is why I am here to introduce new and informational tactics to help you understand things better! A typical lesson plan will be consisted of going over what your teachers' lesson was for the day, and planning for anything ahead! I won't give you extra work or make you think inside a tight box, I will make sure that you have the free time you need but also give you an advanced chance to learn

I have been a special education and general education teacher for the past 12 years. I have worked with students in all grades from PreK through 12th grade. I rely on forming a strong relationship with the students and families in order to tailor education specific to their needs and wants. At the same time, I can provide guidance as to what skills to teach based on standards and prerequisite skills that the student may need. I believe it is important for students to work on skills they lack as well as skills they need for their current grade level.

Your Special Needs Tutoring questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Tutors.

What is special education tutoring?

Special education tutors help students with mild to severe cognitive, emotional, or physical disabilities. Special needs tutors modify the general education curriculum to meet the child's individual needs and involve themselves in each student's social and behavioral development.

What is disability in special education?

The Individuals with Disabilities Education Act (IDEA) identifies 13 disability categories where special education should be provided.

  • Auditory Impairment (AI) – refers to a hearing loss not categorized by deafness.
  • Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) – mainly affects a child's social and communication skills and behavior.
  • Deafness – covers kids who can't hear most or all sounds, even with a hearing aid.
  • Deaf-Blindness (DB) – covers kids with both severe hearing and vision loss that requires unique programs.
  • Emotional Disturbance (ED) – various mental health issues such as anxiety disorder, schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder, and depression.
  • Intellectual Disability (ID) – covers disabilities such as below-average intellectual abilities, poor communication or social skills, and poor self care. One example is down syndrome.
  • Multiple Impairments (MI) – a child with multiple disabilities in this list.
  • Orthopedic Impairment (OI) – covers impairments in kids who lack function or ability in their bodies, such as cerebral palsy.
  • Other Health Impairment (OHI) – conditions that limit a child's strength, energy, or alertness such as ADHD.
  • Specific learning disability (SLD) – conditions such as dyslexia, dysgraphia, dyscalculia, auditory processing disorder, or nonverbal learning disability.
  • Speech or Language Impairment (SI) – covers difficulties such as stuttering, pronouncing words, making sounds with the voice, or understanding words.
