Creative Writing Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Guffey, CO

I believe my teaching style is very adaptive to the age and need of the learner, however, I require parental support, dedication, and willingness on the part of the student to make my tutoring approach successful. I believe we are all lifelong learners and with hard work and dedication can achieve any goal we have for ourselves. I do not see myself as very strict nor am I very lenient. I have never tutored before, however, I have taught Sunday School for two years, I am currently volunteering at two Museums where I am engaged in educational activities, and I have experience in home schooling my 5th grader. I have just recently graduated from college and will begin my graduate studies this August. I have received a GPA of 3.89 and I am an excellent writer, editor, researcher, and test preper. I have passed numerous test, including various CLEPs, GED, and TOEFEL in the highest percentiles.

I am currently attending Air Academy High School as a senior. My expected date of graduation is May 17, 2012. I am studying multiple core classes but take a special interest in English. I have taken multiple classes including grammar, writing, and everywhere in between. I have also taken an assortment of Math classes. Now I am currently taking Functions, Statistics, and Trig. My younger brother and I both have moderate ADHD. While this is technically not a disability it puts a strain on learning new subjects. Throughout my educational career, especially high school, I have learned different methods of studying that help me succeed just as well as my fellow classmates. I believe that everyone is capable of learning a subject. I have been told I am a patient person. It has been scientifically proven that children learn in different ways, something teachers don't always understand. I am a v

I like to allow students to opportunity to make sure all questions about topics being discussed. All students can succeed, but it is the responsibility of the student to be willing and ready for that success.

I graduated with my degree in Secondary English Education from the University of Central Florida in Orlando, FL, in 1998.

I worked at Moorpark College as an ESL and Writing Tutor, helping students discover ways to identify and clarify ideas, refine a topic, outline ideas, and develop the skills needed to work independently. I have my BA from Scripps College in both English and History. I have significant experience tutoring within the humanities, but also German, math and the sciences. I started college as a Biology major, so I have a firm grounding in mathematics and the sciences, which I have bolstered to prepare for graduate school in Architecture. I was a Jumpstart (AmeriCorps) team leader, which involved implementing early childhood curriculum and promoting skill building for at-risk preschool children. I have helped children prepare for preschool through games and activities, and community college students brainstorm ideas for transfer essays. I am very organized, responsible and trustworthy.

I have taught and tutored second languages (French and Spanish) and English here and abroad with every age level, (including K-12, university and continuing education classes), have served as Director for Study Abroad programs, organized and led European tours, and have extensive experience in standardized testing (I wrote in Texas Oral Proficiency Exam in French and edited the TOPT for Spanish for that state's teacher candidates, trained scorers for Basic Skills and subject-area tests in 11 states). My PhD is in Language Education/Applied Linguistics; my MA is French Language and Lit; my BA, French/English; and my proficiency for French is native-level ("Superior" by ACTFL standards). Essential to learning is an environment that allows students to personalize and experiment with new-found knowledge, to enjoy the learning experience and to know that their instructor cares about their pro

As an educator with a BA in English and an MA in Education, I have dedicated my life to teaching. I have a passion for all types of literature and writing. As a result, I have taught high school English for 12 years and expository writing at the University of New Mexico in the evening for nine years. During that time, I earned an administrative license qualifying me to be a principal. Instead of immediately becoming an administrator, I moved to Alaska with my husband for several years and explored the wild outdoors. I have moved back to the lower 48, and I have returned to education as a substitute teacher. My qualifications as an English instructor and tutor remain in tact. I love to patiently impart my knowledge with curious students one-on-one or in a group. I encourage individuals to do their best and show each person how to take personal interest in his or her work, particularly w

I believe that it is the teacher's job to discover the true learning style of their students and when we do it is like unlocking a treasure chest of gold, so to speak. I enjoy teaching all the subjects in school and I enjoy the challenge of teaching children with learning disabilities and or emotional disabilities. I like to differentiate my instruction so that all students can access the curriculum and I keep track of my performance through regular assessments and using the RTI (Response to Intervention) process. I know how to teach reading and writing effectively studying under Dr. Elaine Cheesman from U.C.C.S. Also, I am able to teach math effectively for grades 5-8 with my combined experience and the courses I have participated in. For the past four years I have been working at The Children's ARK-A residential treatment facility for at-risk youth. I was a teaching assistant my first

My background is in International Montessori Education , as well as psychology. I taught, tutored and trained teachers for 20+ years and founded a successful private school, though tutoring is my favorite part of teaching. I love learning and applying new formats, as well as using the many skills I have developed over time. My experience in teaching reading is extensive, probably my greatest strength, and I also tutored all ages and in the areas of writing, study skills,critical thinking,and perceptual skills. The first thing I do is create a personal connection with a child and get to know their individual needs, strengths and learning style. Once that rapport is built the child can relax and focus, knowing they are supported and valued. Bringing energy, a love of learning and a sense of fun, as well as healthy expectations, fuels a great learning environment. I also have high standards

I volunteer for HOBY (Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership Seminar) every year. This program pushes facilitation, which is what I strive to do. I like to try to facilitate and push my students to ask questions and talk to me as a peer. I always try to give at least three compliments to every criticism because students are often too hard on themselves. For some reason, most of the students I have worked with have had an English teacher along the line who has made them feel "stupid." It is amazing what boosting confidence can do! I like to understand where students are coming from and what their specific needs are so I can address them in a way that best fits their learning style and experiences. I began working with children who were diagnosed with autism my first year of college (I did this for 7 years). I felt a sense of accomplishment as I watched them grow as people. I realized throug

My experience is generally with high school and adult learners and I also am extremely proficient with online learning and designing curriculum for online learning that uses mobile devices and virtual simulations. My doctorate research is in the interplay between real and virtual identity when we go into an online space, making me very adept at teaching anytime, anywhere. I am able to teach most high school and undergraduate level subjects as well as writing and business but have a particular passion for finance, history, and most math courses (algebra). My teaching style is collaborative; everyone brings some gift to the table. I never forget to thank my students for giving me the opportunity to guide them on their journey. I try to make learning like a story. I weave real-life examples that have relevance in the lives of my students, and examples from popular culture. My strengt

This work includes providing one-on-one assistance to students who need additional support. I have also worked with students that have a variety of disabilities, from pre-school through high school. I feel I have the patience, compassion and skills needed to provide a safe and productive learning situation for all students. I feel that teaching children is a very important field of work.
