My comments on tutoring Geography : I have loved maps since I was a young girl. I think what I love most about them is imagining all of the incredible places that I could visit, the unique cultures I could experience, and fascinating natural and historical sites that I could explore! I am confident that my passion for the physical / political world will be infectious and you will gain at the very least a new appreciation for our planet and its inhabitants.

I have always loved traveling, learning about different cultures, history, ideologies and of course food and have traveled to over 16 countries and lived in 5, Germany, Israel, Egypt, Turkey and most recently México, where my Spanish speaking and ESL teaching journey began. I have significant experience in Mexican culture from teaching English for 5 1/2 years to learners of all ages from young children to adults. I have experience teaching all subjects in bilingual primary schools and English Literature for a year in a private IBO (K-12) school in Querétaro, MX. The subjects that I taught to adults included conversation, Basic English literacy, Business English, and TOEFL preparation. While living abroad, I experienced firsthand the struggles and daily frustrations of not being able to communicate my ideas, feelings or simply ask for directions or order from a menu at a restaurant.

My teaching style reflects the Kahn Academy in that I believe in small steps that are color coordinated to help the student with a visual learning ability found in ADHD and Autism Spectrum.

Tutor with 13 years experience

Make learning fun and everyone wins! Not all children absorb material the same way. I try to explore different ways of presenting material and working through concepts to relate the material to something that can be understood.
I'm an environmental engineer who has been tutoring for the last 13 years. I enjoy working with children and excell at working with children who might be struggling with comprehension or who have learning disabilities. I have experience working with children who are ESL or ELL. I have worked with elementary, secondary and high school students.

Geography is one of my top subjects!

I have worked as a teacher of science, geography, biology, math and Russian language within various cultural settings around the world. My personal drive is always to seek knowledge and personal experience, which I have happily shared with my students. I hold an advanced degree in Public Administration, which allows me to expand my general knowledge in Geography by emphasizing governmental structures, internal and external policies in a global spectrum. I have lived and worked in various societies with the range of governance from fully centralized to democratic. This personal experience enables me to not only develop an interest toward the world geography among students, but also develop understanding of various governmental institutions around the globe.
I believe that education is the key to success for young students. As a teacher, I hope to motivate students in ascertaining t ... read more

Make the infuriating accessible.

I try to bring information, facts and ideas into a unified whole, so that rather than being a matter of simple memorization, subjects can be internalized, understood and learned. This makes the subjects easier and more accessible both in the short and long run. Tutoring writing, I focus on format and content, turning the agonizing activity of writing a paper into an easy and quick one.
I've done some tutoring both officially and unofficially during the years, editing and proofreading friends' papers (for many of whom English was not a first language), as well as tutoring Russian. My educational experience, however, is vast. I completed the IB program in high school (with SL French, Math Studies and Biology and HL English, History and Psychology), majored in Psychology, History and Russian Studies at CU, and obtained a double Master's in Russian, Central and East European Studies ... read more

My comments on tutoring Geography : I have traveled all over the world and I am very knowledgeable of the different geology of America, Europe and Australia.

Denver Summer Scholars - Lead computer tutor - Taught 3 classes a day with 15 students in each class. I used computer software to tutor students in math and language arts. My students were ESL at Risk students. Tree of Knowledge - I tutored 15 students during the 2011 to 2012 school year in Language Arts and Math. My students increase their pre tutoring scores by a minimum of 25%. My students included at risk and special ed students in first to fifth grade. This was one on one tutoring. I was able to get to know each student and design the teaching method and material to suit each student's need. I designed separate programs for each student. Through my attention and caring attitude towards all of my students I was able to establish excellent rapport and a true desire to learn. I had one third grade student who was having significant difficulties with multiplication. I tau ... read more

I love teaching and working with both children and adults. I am very good at establishing rapport particularly with children who are struggling and with ESL. My goal as a tutor is to give my students the skills and strategies they need to be successful and feel good about themselves as independent learners. I use a variety of engaging activities that capture the student's imagination and interest, while at the same time staying focused on their particular needs.
I am a retired Boulder valley teacher and I have taught from the preschool to college level for over 20 years. Most recently, I worked as an ESL and reading teacher. My training was modeled after reading recovery and involved one year of supervised teaching one-on-one with children who were struggling readers. The goal of this training is to help children work with their strengths as readers, rather than focusing on ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a fun, enthusiastic, caring, supportive, yet, particular teacher. My students learn whether they want to or not... I include a lot of games and activities which are fun for everyone, including myself! I have to have fun, because if I'm not, I know my students aren't having any fun. I care very much for people, therefore, wanting what is best for my students and for them to see the importance of learning another language. I share a lot of my own personal experience, sparking interest in the students and creating a connection with them!
I have been teaching Spanish for 5 years and taught ESL for two years when I lived in Spain. I went to Spain to improve my Spanish and I recommend my students to study abroad! It is the best way to learn/practice the language as well as really get to know the culture. Right now, I am tutoring - working for myself and/or companies. Spani ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

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.

More About This Tutor...

In 1975 I had been teaching tennis for the City of Boulder Parks and Recreation Department for a year and elected to attend a teaching clinic at Coto de Caza California conducted by the Vic Braden Tennis College. Since then I worked for the City of Boulder as a tennis instructor for 7 more years and I coached tennis to individual tennis players, mostly promising junior players, for an additional 4 years. After a short period of retirement from tennis, I took a job with the Bureau of Prisons in Englewood, Colorado, as a tutor in their Education Department. In that capacity I tutored adult inmates to achieve their 8th grade equivalency and I convinced several to go beyond that level to reach their GED. Working with inmates was a very rewarding experience. I also taught for Flatirons Country Club for a season in 1993, and for Devil's Thumb Tennis Club the following year.
