Hi, my name is Debbie E. and I am an NILD professional certified educational therapist (PCET) and also a special education teacher. I have taught students with a variety of disabilities but six years ago I became an educational therapist with a desire to help students with learning challenges to reach their full potential. I love seeing students make progress and overcome struggles they have dealt with for a long time as I implement the various techniques that NILD therapy offers. I not only help a student learn new skills, but for students with a diagnosed learning disability, I use techniques that help to "rewire" the brain to work more

Hi there! I'm Teacher Kaylin, and I'm thrilled to be part of your English learning journey. I've dedicated the past 6 years to teaching English as a Second Language. Whether in a lively online classroom or a focused one-on-one setting, I've enjoyed helping students from PreK to Grade 12, as well as learners of all ages and backgrounds. Throughout my career, I've taught over 3,000 classes and supported more than 6,000 students in improving their English skills. My teaching style is playful and engaging, perfect for young learners, but I'm equally at ease with adults seeking to enhance their language abilities. When I'm not teaching, I love t

As a current college student studying Middle Level Education, former academic coach, and tutor for Respite Coalition, all K-13 material is still quite relevant and fresh in my mind. I am currently student teaching in a sixth grade English-Language Arts class. I get to know each student individually as well as get to know their personal goals. I will provide quick, concise responses with proper feedback for those in a hurry. As well as, slow, individualized teaching for those looking to understand the material on a deeper level. I welcome parent feedback and will alter my methods based on parental goals as well.

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 Columbia special education tutors

Recent success stories from people in the Columbia area.
Mary K.
Suzy is so knowledged and had some great tools/tricks for our smart boy with dyslexia. She treated him with respect and made sure to get to know his interests to make the extra tutoring time less of a chore. He actually enjoyed his time with her. Suzy encouraged him and gave him the space he needed to think before giving him a hint. That is a frustration for him.... when others jump in with a hint or the answer before his brain can find the route he needs. Suzy asked him questions about how he thinks and respected his answers. She encouraged him to build on what he knows and that built resilience. She also was amazing in helping us (his parents) with resources we did not even know existed! I was able to go to the school district and request my son have access to these resources to support him in middle school. My son, who was behind 2.5 grade levels has made honor roll! We credit Suzy for being a part of building his confidence as a capable learner. We highly recommend Suzy! My son says, “Oh ya! If you need a tutor, pick Ms. Suzy!”
