Portland, OR – March 2, 2010 – Jeff Saliba has been given the Award of Excellence by the Teacher’s Association of America in recognition of his achievements with the tutor saliba teaching method.
Saliba originally developed the method after working with a child that has learning disabilities. It directs the educator’s efforts toward students that are visual, auditory and oral learners. An in-depth program for high school students was modified for this year’s curriculum with special emphasis on PowerPoint presentations by teachers. This is what spurred the Award for Excellence.
“As we discover better strategies to reach the children in our classrooms that are on the brink of falling behind, we find that all students are reaping the benefits,” said Saliba. “The PowerPoint presentations are an easy solution for teachers that can be put together quickly and easily.”
The tutor saliba program focuses on teaching material through hearing, speaking and seeing information for students kindergarten through high school. The PowerPoint presentations meet all of these designations in the lesson plan.
“I am honored that the Teacher’s Association of America has not only endorsed my teaching method, but has taken the time and effort to teach its members about it,” said Saliba. “Our nation’s children are the future of tomorrow. We need to give them every opportunity to learn and to succeed.”
In addition to the Award for Excellence, Saliba has been admitted as an honorary member of the association. For more information about the tutor saliba learning method,
