Hello

Thank you for visiting my Outschool Teacher page. August 2022 marks my second anniversary teaching on Outschool and I thought it was time for a profile update. I’m Tim, an Ohio-based teacher in the United States. I celebrate my investment in Outschool, especially my long-term relationships I’ve developed with both learners and parents. My talents include:

•	Master’s degree in Education
•	Ohio state licensed Mild-to-Moderate Intervention Specialist (Kindergarten through 12th Grade-Special Education)
•	Ohio Department of Education (ODE) Reading Endorsement for teaching the Big Five of the science of reading: Phonemic Awareness, Phonics, Vocabulary, Fluency and Comprehension
•	Skilled at writing individualized education plans (IEPs).
•	Orton-Gillingham certified through the Dyslexia Training Institute (DTI) in San Diego, California to teach learners diagnosed with dyslexia. Orton Gillingham is a multi-sensory approach to learning, which includes auditory, kinesthetic (touch) and visual instruction.
•	Six years previous employment teaching at an alternative school for children diagnosed on the autism spectrum and/or life trauma.

In my initial profile, I highlighted a famous educator, Dr. Nicholas Hobbs, who developed the 12 Principles of Re-Education. While much of Dr. Hobbs’ research focused on re-educating emotionally disturbed children, his beliefs apply to any learner or classroom. Those tenets include:
•	Trust is essential.
•	The group is important.
•	A child should know some joy each day (My favorite).

Professional Affiliations
•	International Dyslexia Association (IDA)
•	International Literacy Association (ILA)
•	National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM)
•	Ohio Council of Teachers of Mathematics (OCTM)
