Journalism Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Greeley, CO

A licensed educator for 13 years, I have developed a deep understanding of students and what makes them motivated to learn. I appreciate the challenge of developing strategies to refocus student learning and make them more accountable and actively involved. No two students learn and develop skills in the same way and I embrace that by using tools to engage students where they are and then pushing them to discover where they can be. I have taught middle school social studies and literacy and enjoy the complexity and creativity of middle schoolers. I am a Love and Logic teacher; choice is the biggest driving force in my classroom. I give students the power to shape their learning and success by offering them choices, and using enforceable statements. My goal is that all students leave with a sense of accomplishment which has been shaped by them.

I taught middle school and high school Language and Literature for two years at a private school. During that time I also tutored in the subjects of history, math, and science. I am currently working on my Masters degree in Education and have had refresher courses in the areas of study outside of my initial degree. I love working with students and have taken courses specifically in test prep. I am an active teacher. I want students to understand the subject in the context of their own lives as opposed to just learning definitions. If they can realate the information to an actual happening, they are more likely to remember. In terms of test preparation, aside from learning the information it is important to work on test-taking skills (relaxation, focus, etc.). Being prepared for such large tests is more than just knowing, it is recalling under pressure. I work with all of that to

For seven years, I have been involved in voluntary tutoring as well as professional tutoring and teaching. I earned my BA in English in 2008, and I am currently earning my Teaching Certificate and MA in English Education. I have worked with middle school, high school, and college students as a teacher and a private tutor. I worked as a tutor in the University of Northern Colorado Writing Center and received outstanding reviews from my clients and well as the satisfaction of seeing measurable improvement in their writing skills and critical thinking abilities. As a teacher, I held personal conferences, and I believe more individual progress was made during the one-on-one sessions than could ever have been achieved in the classroom. I believe that learning is a very individual process and that teaching should be tailored to suit each learner's needs. My approach to tutoring has always been

As each student is unique, my teaching style is eclectic and tailored to the individual student as to how they best learn. Having a degree in Psychology gives me the unique opportunity to understand the individual, present them with techniques that promote better study habits, and increase their retention. I have dealt with situations of dyslexia, test anxiety, panic attacks, and challenging home/lifestyle situations, and have met with those challenges with success. As part of my continuing education I have taken a graduate class in Meta Cognition which is all about learning, learning styles, and how to create the best environments. As a nontraditional student at Casper College in Casper, WY I augmented my tuition costs as a peer tutor for two years specializing in Biology, Anatomy, and Psychology. I have extensive experience in writing research papers, and interpreting case study p

My teaching style is guided by the student, curriculum and situation. It is crucial to evaluate where a student is in the learning process, understand how each learns best and be clear regarding course expectations. Developing specific strategies and changing with challenges that arise is essential. I am kind, patient and creative, have high expectations of myself and others, and believe that all people can learn. A key to meeting the needs of students is to have healthy and professional boundaries while creating good relationships; one of my greatest strengths is relating to students on a personal level and then tailoring the learning to this real person. I look forward to being involved with people who choose to learn. I hold a BA in physical education & health,a MA in Reading/Literacy, and am highly qualified and certified to teach English/Language Arts. I have spent the past 29

As a Colorado State University Undergraduate I earned a Bachelors Degree In Journalism and Technical Communications with a Minor in Communications. I have excelled in many areas of writing such as grammar, punctuation and spelling. With a Minor in Communications I learned many ways to communicate with people and how the human mind works. Being a Journalism Major, I have successfully completed many papers and essays about an array of topics, as well as presented many subjects to my classes. For the past year I helped tutor English and Writing helping those understand the tools to writing a paper. I have also helped younger kids with reading and mathematics. I remember growing up knowing that I learned differently than others as I was a very visual learner. I understand that all children have their own way of learning and getting one-on-one help from someone who can teach in that way will

I possess unique training and skill sets that enable me to reach and connect with diverse learners. I work to honor each learner’s distinctive needs, abilities, proclivities and style through establishing trust by way of kindness, patience and understanding. I trust in every child’s ability to connect with the material at hand given the right environment, support and encouragement. I understand that when a child feels safe, valued and met, engagement and learning follow. Being an avid learner myself, I bring enthusiasm and curiosity to every lesson and work to find and stir that curiosity in my students. I’m deeply passionate about education and have taught for over 16 years a wide variety of students (ESL, Learning Challenged, Gifted, APA), 2nd – 12th grades and college courses in Critical Thinking, Creative and Multimedia Writing. I have a BA with honors in English, and hold an MA in P

I received a Psy.D. degree from a distance online program. I have written hundreds of papers in my lifetime! I teach non-credit adult education classes and have been a mentor/tutor with at-risk youth, a volunteer ESL teacher for immigrants (I have a working knowledge of Spanish), and am currently taking classes to renew my Colorado state teaching license. I love teaching and I believe that learning can be a positive experience. I know that people learn in different ways and one method does not fit everyone. I work hard to determine

My educational philosophy is strongly influenced by Howard Gardner's Theory of Multiple Intelligences. I approach teaching from that perspective, incorporating a variety of disciplines and media to build on a student's strengths, to have fun while learning, and to challenge areas (building new skills) where a student can benefit. I volunteered at Howard Gardner's Project Zero at Harvard to understand how to evaluate learning through qualitative and quantitative measurements. Each student brings "genius" to learning, and our collaboration together would be to creatively build and strengthen from that place of genius. My teaching experience includes traditional classroom single-discipline settings, as well as non-traditional field work, with students Pre-K to Secondary. I have lead (wildlife and water) research projects with students and teachers, and have participated on research proje
