I have been in the business of coaching and teaching kids for most of my adult life. Ever since I had kids I have been involved in their lives as a coach, a classroom volunteer, and through YMCA activities (camps and sports). In fact, the encouragement of so many parents convinced me to see what it would take to become a teacher. Many years after graduating from Stanford I began the teacher's credentialing process. In 2002 I completed my work and earned a Master's in Education. When friends asked how did I like my new job, I responded, "It's the hardest job I ever loved." And it still is. I have taught or student taught from Kindergarte...

Hey! I am a college student with over 5 years of tutoring experience. I have tutored elementary school, high school, and even college students in a variety of subjects, including math, chemistry, and languages such as Spanish and English. I love seeing the "aha" moment in my students when they finally are able to wrap their heads around a difficult concept. When I teach, I like to use analogies to explain ideas in simpler terms and provide additional perspectives. However, I can adjust my methods based on feedback from the student.

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.
  • Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) – injury to the brain caused by a physical force.
  • Visual Impairment / Blindness (VI) – covers both partial sight and blindness.

Reviews for Redwood City special education tutors

Recent success stories from people in the Redwood City area.
Monica O.
Ms. Gorelick worked with my son for 5 years beginning in the 1st grade. She was supportive and kind and still held him accountable with love. She was not only supportive with him, but with my husband and I also. He is now working at grade level and doing wonderfully. Her exceptional ability to work and communicate with my son was and is invaluable. The way she connected with him and the rapport she established was amazing and it truly helped him learn and grow. They both had mutual trust and respect. I love how she understands that every child is so different and looks for ways to help meet them where they are at. I cannot recommend her highly enough. Las Vegas lost a great teacher and California is lucky to have her.
