Students need inspiration!.

I have led several small groups of teenagers and young adults in Biblical studies at Prairie Hill Evangelical Free Church, several musical groups in practicing and performing, and a summer-long book club at Crown College. In gaining my Associate of Arts degree from Crown College, I also led many study groups on subjects ranging from Chemistry to Physics, English Literature to Creative Writing.
I love discovering each individual student and the way to help them learn. My goal is to help students become inspired by their subject matter so that it can play a role in their lives as well as their test scores.

A Little Bit About Me...

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.

My comments on tutoring Musical : I'm willing to teach Music Theory.

I have many volunteer hours stacked up working with groups of children, but I would love to teach on a more personal basis to build my one-on-one skills. I'm currently an education major at Colorado State University, and while music is my emphasis, I was always very studious in school and am well-versed in other subjects. I have received numerous academic and artistic awards, some (such as being named a Texas Music Scholar) encompass both.
For me, teaching isn't about pounding new material into their head, it's about helping them understand the material they're given and actually having fun learning. That's why my teaching style is all about fun and retention.

Having earned a master's in psychology, I have extensive knowledge in this area. I have worked on many papers and reports throughout my college years, so I have strong proofreading and grammar skills. I tutored in my high school in many different subject areas and currently help some of my clients with their schoolwork.
I enjoy working with youth to help them achieve success in many aspects of their lives. The one-on-one attention may be all a child needs to move forward when he/she is struggling in the classroom. I am a patient, detailed, and organized person. I have a great work ethic and strive to show youth that success can be achieved in many different forms. Finding the right motivator and "language" can make all of the difference in a confusing subject.

All students possess the ability to achieve academic success; however, many are unable to identify a streamlined path. I have worked with a wide range of students and have learned from each one a new teaching/learning style. One of the most important roles of an educator is to help the student identify goals and determine the most effective way to reach them. Furthermore, I believe that the role of a tutor is not to simply teach content; each session should make the student that much more independent as they learn the individualized strategies and techniques to reach academic success.
As an undergraduate, I became very passionate about the sciences and graduated with a BA in Chemistry with a minor in Psychology and Biology. During my collegiate years, I Peer Tutored for General and Organic Chemistry laboratories and held review sessions for these courses. During my latter two years ... read more

I attended college on an opera scholarship and finished my degree in English. I have a very diverse background which makes me able to relate to everyone I meet. I believe fully that every person has the ability to succeed, that all things are possible. I have been teaching for over five years, including running an at-risk school for middle-school and high-school students. I have taught (in no particular order) Mathematics, Reading, Art, Science, Social Studies, Singing, Music Theory and Appreciation, Literature, Logic, Philosophy, Writing, Poetry, and others, and my focus has always been upon the individual learner. I typically am able to move an individual up by multiple grade levels within a month in reading or mathematics.
I believe that everything is interconnected, much like a spider web, and that if you can connect information to what interests a person, than learning can ... read more

I believe that vibrant, approachable teachers who have both a passion for teaching and a healthy sense of humor can create an atmosphere where learning is not drudgery, but exciting, challenging, and fun. Teachers must have an engaging manner, a solid background in their content area and also be very organized. They must show the practical application and personal relevance of the material. The content should be taught in a creative manner that caters to a variety of learning styles. This should include experiential, discovery-based, and integrated learning whenever possible. Such methods will encourage higher-level thinking and guide students in developing problem solving skills. Good teachers view every child as a unique and interesting human being. No amount of academic prowess or field experience can take the place of sheer enjoyment of children or that little bit of magic we recog ... read more

I enjoy teaching all ages of children and young adults. I believe every student can learn whatever they put their mind to and my job is to facilitate that learning by presenting it in a variety of different ways. I strive to involve my students in the learning process so that they might achieve their full potential.
After graduating from Colorado State University with a degree in wildlife biology, I was hired to a position requiring extensive training which I provided to incoming employees. In my spare time, I volunteer teaching highschool students at a local church. I have taught in both capacities for the past two years and continue to refine my teaching style through workshops and classes.

During the last five years I have taught others how to use social media, viral marketing, search engine optimization and social media marketing more effectively. I have been recognized by peers as a leader in the emerging space of social knowledge, which embraces a holistic approach to the social interactions an organization has internally and with customers and partners.
I focus on the individual first - her style of learning, what makes her mind tick, how she responds to different methods of teaching. I believe that people are treated fairly by being treated individually. I also believe that people do not care how much you know until they know how much you care. I strive to set an example of genuine care and concern for the learner.

My teaching style can easily fit individuals of all ages. I like to teach people how to learn music quickly, and I use a method that incorporates both learning how to play by ear, and reading music. Using this method, my students can quickly learn how to play popular music that they will enjoy, as well as the classics. I believe that any student can easily learn to play the piano, regardless of their age or experience, with my method.
As a music student at metro, and a jazz/classical pianist with over 15 years of experience, I’ve had a lot of experience teaching students musical technique, especially in terms of modern music/jazz. I’ve been in many different types of bands, ranging from classical quartets to rock bands, and have received several awards, including awards for musicianship at the Greeley jazz festival. I also play the drums and guitar. I’m also double majoring in avi ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Learning starts with learing about oneself and how you best perform. It is very similar to sports, you start off learning the techniques and then you must learn how you best apply them, and yes it takes practice. I have gathered many tools in my life and they came from all the different activities I have done. One must only keep the eyes open and mind focused to absorb the world around them. I believe that if given the answer the lesson is lost. Sometimes it is frustrating, but training wheels must never be confused with pushing the bike. The 'Ah ha' moment can only be earned not given. All children are different and more they learn about what makes them different, the better prepared they are to know and deal with their strengths and weaknesses.
Although I have no formal teaching experience, we all learn and teach everyday in our lives. I am very intelligent and want to pa ... read more

Using a variety of teaching strategies, I engage students with all learning styles including using music, creative writing, visual arts, interpersonal interactions, quiet reading, and exploratory activities. My experience with young learners has taught me that all students appreciate authentic learning situations, in which they can use all of their senses to experience a subject. Furthermore, I believe and have seen that all students can learn, though at differing rates. I am patient with all students, and try to demonstrate to them my own love of learning, as well as my consideration of each of them as unique and special individuals.
The bachelors degree I received in English Literature and Spanish allowed me to spend two years serving as a United States Peace Corps volunteer in Ecuador. There, I became fluent in Spanish and decided to return to the United States to pursue degrees ... read more

As the daughter and sibling of educators, I have been teaching since I was 6 years old; I taught a 4-year old boy to write his name at an inner-city program. As a teenager I tutored a 9-year old girl in math. After graduating college I managed an adult learning center for a local non-profit organization. I currently substitute teach for K-12 in Boulder Valley schools and recently began substitute teaching a Composition course at a community college. Most significantly, however, I have developed unique approaches to reinforcing classroom concepts for my two children with special needs so they can be successful students in light of their non-traditional learning styles.
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 t ... read more

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!

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 areas of fine and liberal arts. I have extensive understanding of grammatical skills due to my experience writing research and analytical essays and grading essays written by my students on a wide variety of topics. My time in college was spent tutoring students in history, math, science, English, psychology, French, Greek, and the arts. As a teacher I worked with students individually as well as in the classroom. In addition to academic training, I have instructed students in voice, guitar, acting, and piano both formally and informally over the last six years.
