I have been both in plays and worked as the stage crew. I have also directed numerous productions in an after school program. -Over 2.5 years in Before and After school Program where we helped students with school work and put on plays during the summer. -About a year as a Teachers aid working almost exclusively with Students in Math. -I have worked with children ranging from 3 years old to twelve years old. -I spent 9 years working with students in many different areas. Some children just need a new way of looking at something to understand it. Children might also need just little more time to understand something that schools just don't have the time to give. I am patient, caring and I can think outside the box if a student needs a new way to look at a problem.

I am a recent college graduate with a lifetime of experience in music, drama and dance. I have had teaching experience with all ages from ages 2-72 and love to share my passion with others. I have been the student, performer, director, choreographer and teacher. I love all aspects of the learning experience as I believe we can never be truly finished with our education. I learn just as much from my students as they do from me.

I found that I enjoy teaching as much, or more than, acting. My style is to have students working and interacting as much as possible. I don't do much lecture, but rather, design the classses so the students can work independently or in groups while I advise them. I have quite a bit of experience, in both the tutoring and the teaching fields. While working in Los Angeles as an actor, I needed to take other jobs to supplement my income. Pursuant of this, I worked for 2 years as a tutor for Ivy West in Los Angeles, tutoring high school students to prepare for the SAT. I tutored both one-on-one and in the classroom setting. Since 2003, I have been substitute teaching for LAUSD, DPS and other private schools. During this time, I have done many "Long Term" assignments that required me to lesson plan, evaluate, and manage students.

Through my experience working with students in inner-city Dallas, in Russia, in Commerce City, and in Denver, I have learned to be creative when finding ways to help students succeed. Education is a deeply personal experience, one which requires the instructor to be as open and active as the student. I strive to journey with my students as they endeavor to expand their learning and broaden their abilities. Each student has specific needs that must be carefully addressed, whether they be language barriers, emotional or developmental delays, etc. When tutoring, both in group and individual contexts, I find what kind of teaching works well with each student. I have a strong, diverse background in education, from EFL instruction overseas, to public school classroom instruction and private tutoring, to individual and group piano lessons. I began tutoring and teaching piano when in high s

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 physiology major to undergraduates. My BS degree is unique, and allowed me to continue to purse a part of medicine I have a strong passion for. I was able to complete a course in Muscle Biology, where we discussed everything from current muscle research to advancements in muscle technology. Along with my bachelor's degree, I received my personal training certification just last year. With this certification I have been able to put into practice what I have learned. 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 teach

For as long as I can remember I have been tutoring students in various subjects. My tutoring experience started when I was still in elementary school and has yet to be interrupted. I had the privilege of being a course assistant for two years during my undergraduate work, which gave me experience in front of the classroom as well as the skill of tutoring and facilitating study groups outside the classroom. I feel my strengths lie in the areas of Psychology, beginning Statistics, English, and Language Arts. I have also tutored in the areas of beginning Spanish and lower level Math. Having been raised by two teachers, education has always been an important aspect of my life. One of the most important aspects of education, I feel, is determining the most effective learning style for oneself and being able to study and process information using that method. I do not believe that there i

My approach to education is extremely individualized. My students have taught me that we all learn differently, and that success is always reachable with patience and persistence. I find that creativity and a variety of approaches to learning are the keys to making this success happen. I started tutoring as a result of my knowledge base and the needs of the young people I worked with. My first tutoring experience was with a young man who was studying pre-calculus. Since then, I have tutored in upper level mathematics, history and social studies, English composition, and basic sciences. I had a position as a history and social studies teacher for five years in a private school, and have also taught adult education and GED prep.

My style is friendly, patient and understanding. I use a variety of techniques, from personal instruction to multi-media material. Depending upon the student’s needs, we could engage in anything from conversation to games and structured exercises. Students learn in different ways, so I gear my lessons to their strengths. Some students worry about embarrassing themselves. To overcome this, I keep my sessions casual and supportive. Corrections are gently instructive without disapproval. Homework is a good way to keep a student focused on learning between tutoring sessions. No homework is over-taxing, but learning is a matter of frequent practice. It is my mission to make tutoring interesting, stimulating and enjoyable. From college through work in information technology, I found myself tutoring others. It is a joy to see that “Ah, I understand!” look on the face of anothe

I have always enjoyed working with kids. I was fortunate to land a long-term substitute teaching position in a Special Education classroom for almost a year. I was responsible for teaching small groups of students with learning and behavioral disabilities, and basic reading and math skills. While this was an incredibly challenging job, it was also immensely rewarding and helped me develop a strong understanding and compassion for kids of all ability levels. As well, I learned how to connect quickly and easily with kids and to create an environment where learning could happen in an easy and fun manner. In addition to my direct teaching experience, I also worked as a yearbook rep for Herff Jones Yearbooks. In this job, I was responsible for teaching groups of middle-schoolers and high-schoolers everything from how to write good copy, to how to manage a staff. I have substituted nume

I graduated Summa Cum Laude and Phi Beta Kappa from the University of Denver with a double major in History and Mathematics. However, I pushed myself to succeed in many other subject areas as well, including Theatre, Spanish and Leadership Studies. I also developed exemplary essay writing skills during my educational experience. As a high school student myself, I took a total of nine AP Exams (AP US History, AP European History, AP Calculus BC, AP Chemistry, AP Physics C, AP English Language, AP English Literature, AP Spanish Language and AP Spanish Literature), and I scored the highest attainable score of five on all of them. During the past two years, I have tutored students in History, Mathematics, Science and Language Arts. I believe that every student deserves the individual attention they require to excel.

As a graduate student, I worked as a tutor in the campus Writing Center. Later, just before graduating, I taught Writing, ESL and GED at the Denver County Jail. Since completing my degree, I became a Writing and Critical Thinking Professor for two separate Universities (Metro State College and Devry University), where I've been for almost nine years. I think learning should be fun. If a student doesn't enjoy what she is doing, she won't likely attain mastery of the discipline. Moreover, I think students learn best by doing as opposed to being told what to do (i.e. practice as opposed to lecture and explanation). This means that I leave a lot of space for students to try things without fear of making mistakes. Evaluation (especially critical evaluation) is an important element in the later learning process, but initially the priorities should be placed upon fun, experimentation, praise, a

I am a very friendly and enthusiastic person. Nothing can bring me more joy than being around kids and impacting their lives in a positivie way. I know, from personal experience, that early childhood teachers have a huge impact in our future careers. I also believe that a great student is the reflection of their parents involvement. I just want to help other students as other great tutors and teachers once helped me. As a child I came to America speaking only Spanish. Thanks to the patience, care, and knowledge of great teachers and tutors I was able to become fluent in English by the time I was in 2nd grade. I would like to share my knowledge with other minority kids who have the dream of graduating from high school and continuing their education as I have been fortunate to do. I have volunteered, and was then offered a day care position at FLOC child care in Boulder, and I also

As a biology undergraduate at IOWA, I focused as much on how professors taught as I did on the content they were teaching. My interest is in meta-cognition and making sense of our world through unique tools of learning: reading, reason, art, music, language. I earned a Bachelor's degree in biology and certification to teach biology and science. I have taught and tutored students with emotional and learning disorders in all subjects, all grades. I am a creative and patient learner, which informs my teaching style. I enjoy meeting students of all ages at their level of understanding and meet easily the challenge of figuring out how to communicate in ways that make sense to the individual. My task as a teacher is, essentially, to believe in the student's ability to learn and to achieve their goals. I ask questions to engage inquiry: students think about their thinking, ask original
