Hi there! I’m a former educator (now full time in tech strategy) looking to help you! In my 3 years as a full time educator, I became adept at helping students develop a game plan and find the keys to their success. I have a strong background in English, essay writing, reading, and social studies/History. I believe that learning works best when you are having fun, and to meet students where they are. I am looking forward to working with you and helping you find success in your journey!

Uma S. says, "I like Ryan because he is relatable. He is a good teacher but switches things up because he is still a young adult. I think hes able to teach me because hes still in touch with modern games and music. I find it fun even to learn from because its nice to be able to relate to a teaching figure. --- Kieran" Read more

Need some help? We all do sometimes! Do not hesitate to reach out. It honestly makes me feel great to help anyone that wants to achieve their goals.

Hi, I am a speech therapist, language arts tutor, reading tutor, accent reductionist, accent teacher and ESL teacher.

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.

Summer O.
Amanda worked so well with my daughter. She is so much more confident than he was before starting tutoring. It was a long process, but he is now reading at grade level. We are so grateful.

Coline is a patient and persistent tutor. She makes sure that my son understands the material well and does not give up until he does. I appreciate the fact that she wont gloss over subjects and comes prepared. She has also prepared additional questions for him to practice. My son finds these sessions helpful.
