My comments on tutoring Painting : Watercolor is my favorite.

I taught a collegiate level graphic design course to intermediate and advanced students at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. Typography, digital design, and consistency within design were emphasized. Previously I taught a graduate level course in surgical orientation and conducted independent studies with medical illustration students.

My overall aim in dealing with students at every level is to construct an atmosphere of mutual respect where I may equip each student with a strong foundation and provide them with the confidence and desire to acquire the skills, independence, and motivation to develop a love, talent and appreciation for art. I hope to model an enthusiasm for craft that is contagious and inspires hard work and a desire to learn. I am passionate about all kinds of art and love to share my enthusiasm with students and direct them in their journey of art discovery.
My formal teaching experience consists of weekly classes and workshops at Artful Journey, and over three years at ArtWorks Fine Art Studio. While there I taught traditional drawing and painting with a focus on teaching students to draw realistically. I guided all ages through color theory, design, drawing, painting, and printmaking.

My teaching style revolves around the specific learning needs of students because each person not only learns differently but has specific strengths and weakness. As teachers it is our job to meet the needs of all learners. I do not believe in presently material in one way, or one way all the time.
I am a graduate of both the University of Colorado and Adams State College. I hold a Master's degree in Secondary Education as well as a Initial Teacher's license. I have experience as a volunteer tutor in social studies and math, a paid tutor in reading, a student teacher, and as a substitute for the last year and a half. I also have experience as a mentor to young people through the YMCA.

While I was attending college I worked in child care with a variety of ages preparing lessons for enrichment. I also taught as an adjunct professor for adult ESL at Aims Community College. After finishing my degree, I taught for five years at Wiggins Elementary in 2nd and 6th grade. I was trained in FAST reading program as well as many others for teaching reading and math. For the past two years, I have been living in the country of Macedonia as a US Peace Corps volunteer. My job there entailed working with primary school teachers to develop student centered teaching techniques and resources. I was responsible for planning, attending classes, modeling and providing feedback for teachers.
I believe teaching should be child friendly and as interactive as possible. When learning is fun, even difficult concepts become easy. My goal is to motivate children to succeed and teach th ... read more

I enjoy teaching and learning from students. I feel everyone has something to share and assist with understanding different beliefs, cultures and ideas. I strive to teach to all modalities. I look at and present different ideas that might make sense. When a student understands the whys they can understand and look at the how to aspect.Teaching should be student driven allowing them to take in information and process. Then as a teacher I can reinforce and guide then to success.I believe that everyone can learn at their level of knowledge. I never give up on any student.
I became a para and went on to get my teaching degrees.Initially I received a BS in Human Services(This degree dealt with ethics, social work, counseling, and confidential issues) I felt these were issues as a teacher that would be beneficial. After working as a substitute for 2 years,I applied and was offered a Spec ... read more

I have learned patience and understanding in my trips abroad as well as my time spent with the developmentally disabled here in Colorado. My technique mostly stems from understanding how the student learns and then taking the time to structure lessons that best utilize the particular student's skill set and preferences. I feel that through my experience, I can now meet the needs of almost any learner who possesses a desire to gain knowledge and better themselves.
My degree in English served me well in my two periods of teaching in South Korea and Chile. In the former, I taught young children through high school age English in private companies in and around the greater Seoul area. In Chile, I mostly taught adults at the corporate executive level, but also did some tutoring of younger children. In my position as 1 to 1 facilitator currently, I work on a wide plethora of topics wit ... read more

More About This Tutor...

After 35 years practicing commercial photography, I have begun my new career as an art teacher. I recently graduated from Regis University with a Master's of Education. Combined with my Bachelor of fine Arts from CU, I can offer a unique blend of real-world experience and contemporary pedagogy to my art students. I am adept at project management and academic research. My Master's thesis was on the subject of critical thinking in art. I have an arsenal of techniques which lead students to build critical thinking skills along with the disposition to use them. I have been substitute teaching in art rooms across four different school districts and have worked successfully with children from a wide variety of backgrounds.
I am a true supporter of standards based education. It clarifies what the students need to know and be able to do. It makes the teacher's job easier when desig ... read more

I enjoy working with students and have a high level of patience with each grade level. I am usually pretty laid-back and allow students leeway to have a bit of fun while they learn. I believe that without a little fun in their daily routines, students grow stagnant and bored easily. I enjoy feeling that I make a difference in student's lives.
I have a substitute teaching license from the state of Colorado. I have been subbing for Denver Public Schools and Cherry Creek School District for over three years. I have worked with ages ranging from Kindergarten to 8th grade.

More About This Tutor...

I have been tutoring children while in college and since. I tutored children as part of the No Child Left Behind Act in the fields of reading, English, math, history, and science. Since graduating college, as performing as a case manager in mental health and for homeless families, I have tutored children in the same fields. I have also tutored college level students in the fields of statistics, writing, and psychology.
My teaching style is to analyze the information that is lacking with the students in question and then decide which form learning is appropriate based on the child's desires (i.e. didactic or experiential).

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching has become a big passion of mine, and I have taught people of all ages. Everyone learns in a different way--some visually, others verbally. I like to incorporate both into my teaching, by showing both you reinforce the topic and hit on both learn styles. After both a visual demonstration and verbal explanation I like to see the individual repeat what I just showed them. Learning anatomy is about constant repetition, and also having a solid understanding of the physiological processes involved. I am the type of teacher who likes to constantly be asking questions on previous material we covered, which is again repetition for the student.
During my undergraduate career, I was privileged to enroll into the Physiology department in the College of Medicine at the University of Arizona. The University of Arizona is one of 10 schools throughout the country that offer the phy ... read more
