I have 10 years of experience working with a wide range of learning needs, behaviors, and styles on both elementary and middle school levels. I am currently a MCPS ED teacher. My students and I have a good time and we both always wind up learning something new! I am easy to reach, just call or text me at 571-212-1258 or email me at ted@teddywheeler.com.

As a Special Education Teacher, I have a strong passion for relationships. This focus characterizes my teaching style as I am able to bond with my students and their families. As a tutor, I make the education a perfect fit for each child. I use modern techniques and strategies to teach to both struggling students or those wishing to get ahead. I work to make a personal learning connection to help children excel.

I have tutored many ages of students, up through the Algebra and Geometry levels. I teach in multiple representations that enable students to more fully grasp concepts, and stress funcional fluency to try to make students faster on the simple foundational concepts. Knowing your fundamentals on each level is the best way to master new concepts.

I have a huge passion for science, especially for Biology. I have successfully tutored two students in Biology. I would be more than happy to tutor other areas of science as well.

No matter where your student is going to go in life, having a solid grasp of writing and reading is essential. I have specific training in two different vocabulary programs to build foundational letter-sound concepts along with upper-level vocabulary skills. With me, students learn to gain comprehension in reading through breaking down a story into its concepts. I also focus on the writing process and grammar by integrating writing and reading skills.

Most students can greatly benefit from coaching on how to organize their schooling. I focus on several areas. I help them understand planning assignments and time management, from understanding which assignments have higher priority to knowing how to pace a long term project. There is the basic idea of learning how to organize one's backpack. They will learn test-taking strategies and writing skills practice. Older kids will review basic academic skills that may be causing them issues so that they are able to function in a timely manner.

I would love to help your child to excel in his or her education. Please email me at ted@teddywheeler.com or call or text me at 571-212-1258. Whether your student needs to catch up, extend abilities, or enrich skills, I would be happy to help!
