Drawing is one of my top subjects! I have an MFA in Medical and Biological Illustration and enjoy drawing anything and everything!

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.

More About This Tutor...

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 their weaknesses. Children learn the strategies that they need in order to be successful, independent readers. The work I do with them is very focused and begins with a thorough diagnostic assessment of their reading abilities. I have six years of experience working one-on-one with children to improve their reading. I also have extensive experience teaching and writing with both native English speakers and second language learners from the elementary to college level. ... read more

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.

A Little Bit About Me...

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. I also helped manage our studios, set up new curriculum for our summer workshops and developed and created working examples. I also held a teaching assistantship at Cranbrook, which consisted of mentoring my fellow graduate students, managing our facilities, and assisting our artists in residence.
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 motivatio ... read more

My teaching journey has taken me to many different places and I've had the opportunity to work with all ages of students from 3 year olds to college-age. Specifically I have experiences with students who are from culturally and linguistically diverse backrounds and also with students with special needs and learning disabilties. In the last few years I have tutored students one-on-one in organizational skills, studying for tests, writing and editing.
I find that students (myself included) learn best when they feel safe and that they can be successful. I believe it's important to teach in the zone of proximal development and build on a student's interests. The best way to do this is begin with activities that are fun and if it's possible, to access the creative side of the brain during learning to help students to relax.

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 Special Education position. I took the job and went to Regis University while I was working with 7th and 8th grade students. I worked at this position for three years, the year I graduated 2007 the school was faced with downsizing and I was let go. I worked the following year with 7th and 8th grade students in a different school district. I continue to move forward with learning and teaching.
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 modali ... read more

Teaching has been an extremely rewarding career. My primary goal as a teacher is to help each child to experience the great feeling of success. I believe that success, big or small, promotes self confidence, which creates further successes. My teaching style is supportive and kind. I challenge my students to the extent that I believe they are capable. I am patient and believe in positive reinforcement as a teaching tool.
I have been teaching dance to children and young adults for the last 10 years. However I pride myself on teaching my students more than the physical elements of dancing. The exercises, and "games" that I teach incorporate important memory and creative thinking skills. Beyond my dance major, I have a minor in psychology, and excellent grades in upper level w I have been teaching dance to children and young adults for the last 10 years.

A Little Bit About Me...

Being so enthusiastic and young at heart, I cannot help but relate to children. I love to teach writing because each individual has his/her own style, and it is fascinating to see that blossom. Aside from the joys of writing, I do strongly believe in the importance of a solid foundation for correct grammar and sentence structure. By incorporating fun, hands-on learning, it becomes more efficient for a child to pick up various learning techniques. Whether it be through rhyme, repetition, reading, or even speaking, there are several way to help children learn how to correctly and effectively express themselves through words.
As an honors graduate, I pursued most of my education within my communications degree. I will begin teaching a 15-20 person writing class of 4-6 graders at the YWCA in Boulder this month. This is similar to a youth organization I worked for in high school w ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My general teaching and learning philosophy is that every child has the potential for greatness, but that proper guidance and experiences are needed to reach full potential. Children are not just empty vessels waiting to be filled, but bring unique dimensions and experiences into any educational setting, which affect individual desire and motivation to learn and participate. The varied backgrounds of all children must be addressed and included in the curriculum to maximize each child’s learning potential and scholastic enjoyment. Even the youngest of children is constantly creating, adapting to, and analyzing his/her reality through active learning; thus any educational program should follow in this way. Educational programs should explore basic skills for successful daily living and future scholastic/life success, but should also allow for child interests to mold lessons and act ... read more

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 am currently striving towards being a career educator. Throughout my professional career I have always been responsible for training and mentoring my clients and employees. I was a substitute teacher in Florida where I taught middle school and high school students.
I love to mentor and advise students in the most advanced and current teachings in the field. I believe that everyone has something that motivates and inspires them. It is up to us as educators to find those motivations and cultivate them. I am patient, understanding, and always open to new ideas and lesson plans. I believe in consistency and perserverence.

I love to see a student light up when he realizes for the first time that he is capable of achieving success in an area that he has previously experienced failure. I understand that each person has his own way of learning and I am sensitive to those who need special attention or non-traditional forms of learning. My goal is to provide each student with the tools and knowledge to learn on their own. Incorporating basic study skills into a lesson is key to watching a student become an independent and lifetime learner. I believe that learning is fun and hopefully my enthusiasm and love for learning can help spark a similar love in my student.
My level of academic excellence has led me to pursue a career in teaching. I have earned two degrees, AFA in Vocal Performance and BA in religion and philosophy which has demonstrated and expanded my experience, knowledge, and ability in the area ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My goal is to excite students about learning. I encourage my own children as well as those I teach in the classroom to focus first on finding at least one concept in each lesson that attracts them and about which they would like to know more. This philosophy helps to eliminate the student's perception that "I hate math" or "I'm not good at science." Secondly, I use text-to-self and text-to-world relationships to get students to recognize the broader application of subjects. Finally, I work hard to reach students with various learning styles (verbal, auditory, visual) and always make time for one-on-one reinforcement or re-teaching for students with special needs.

After earning my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of Colorado at Boulder, I determined that I wanted to pursue a teaching career. I enrolled in the Master’s in Elementary Education program at the University of Phoenix. My work in elementary schools has been as a paraeducator, both as an instructional para with general classroom duties and as an intensive special needs para. This experience has allowed me to work with students with Autism, ADHD, Cerebral Palsy, and various other disabilities. I am currently student teaching in kindergarten, and will be graduating and moving to Colorado Springs at the end of May. I will begin teaching in August, but would love to spend some time tutoring during the summer!
