More About This Tutor...

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.

A Little Bit About Me...

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 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.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a bright, patient, and good teacher. I have been tutoring professionally and on a volunteer basis for many years. I am a business professional who has an MBA and an undergraduate degree in liberal arts. Both degrees are from top ranked institutions. I enjoy working with children!
I am patient and open to a variety of teaching and learning styles. I work by positively encouraging kids to want to learn and by finding what their "hot buttons" are to avoid instilling fear into them. When I teach kids, they actually want to learn and the results have been great!

A Little Bit About Me...

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. However I pride myself for tea ... read more

As the oldest of seven children, I am very comfortable working with children and enjoy it very much. My favorite teacher was in third grade, and he made such an impression on me that fifteen years later I am still reminded of him and his unique teaching style. To me, every child is unique and learns better in a different way than others might. Having a wide range of teaching methods is important, as well as being patient, empathetic, and innovative to help someone learn in a way that is interesting and stimulating. Every person, child or adult, can reach their academic potential with the right guidance, and I thrive on that interaction.
Being a meticulous student at Colorado State University, I excelled in academics. During my nine semesters, I earned a Bachelor of Arts in Language, Literature, and Culture with a concentration in French, as well as Political Science. Helping others ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I am a very patient and kind hearted person. I am able to relate to teenagers and can get through to children. I find that as long as I have the students respect, then progress can be made. I do not come in demanding their respect or attempting to force their respect. I come in a friendly manner and I will conduct the course in that same manner. I don't have a problem laughing and joking about, but when push comes to shove, the material will always be gotten through. I want them to understand what they are learning.
I have always had an affinity for math and history. As a result, I went to Colorado State University to major in history, but I took a few math classes as well. I know how to do math up to Calculus 1. Last summer I tutored a girl going into the fourth grade. She came out of third grade not understanding any of the math taught, because the teacher believe that ... 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

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a very easy going and open minded educator. I believe everybody has a unique way of learning and that my role as an educator is to find the best approach to make the knowledge stick into a person's mind. I try to engage as many of our senses in any learning endeavor (sight, sound, smell, taste or touch). The best reward I get is that look of AHA!! in a person's face when the information I am trying to communicate finally makes sense.
I am an Engineer by education and trade. I have a Physics degree and I have worked in production-cell support throughout my working career. My main responsibilities have been focused on training different people, with different skills and different approaches.

I am very passionate about education. I am a life-long student and my enthusiasm for learning is contagious. Each child has learning style and my priority is to discover that of your child's.

I create a safe and fun environment for learning and endeavor to provide a good fit, so as to avail the most effective opportunity for your child's academic success.

I have a true passion for teaching children. It is because of this love for kids and teaching that I like to run a love and logic classroom where actions are met with consequences that will benefit every child throughout their child and adult lives. My teaching philosophy is that of balance. I believe that every classroom and student requires a delicate balance of management, instruction, and respect. In my eyes every student requires this type of balanced approach to learning and growing. I also believe that every child is different and therefore each individual needs a different type of direction and instruction in order to be successful. As an educator I have and will strive to constantly differentiate instruction to fit the needs of all of my students.

As a teacher’s assistant for photography in high school, I realized that I had a natural aptitude for teaching and breaking subjects down into manageable parts. In college, I was the person that other students came to for guidance with difficult topics, from mathematical equations to evolutionary theory. Since I earned my BS in wildlife biology, I have taught in many capacities, including as a substitute teacher and as a trainer for new employees. I have taught discouraged children to read and fostered latent talents. As a tutor for the Interfaith Refugee Ministry, I worked with children and adults from all over the world, including a woman from Zimbabwe who was studying to earn her GED, but struggled just to create a complete sentence in English. After meeting with her for a few short months she had become a capable essayist and passed the test on her first attempt.

I enjoy working with children, and in one-on-one settings, I find it the most effective. I do demand alot from my students, especially considering the distractions and challenges children face these days. Emphasis on studying and school work remains my focus. I achieve that by a slow, deliberate teaching of methods that I hope the children find useful in the learning process. I focus on core fundamentals and critical thinking skills, applied to whatever subject I am helping with. Ultimately, the fundamental necessity is dedication, effort, and discipline on behalf of the student and myself to make this endeavor a success.

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 is a child that is "unteachable," rather I trust in the fact that once a child has the necessary skills to process information the way it makes sense to them, every child has the capability to learn. I strive to make learning fun and use tricks such as writing songs, drawing pictures, flashcards, rapping and many more to aide in the process of understanding, comprehension and retention.
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 pri ... read more

More About This Tutor...

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 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 have a gentle yet focused approach to learning. During my academic years I excelled in learning. As an undergraduate I conducted a thesis with four undergraduate assistants. I graduated with honors earning my BA in Psychology. As a drug prevention counselor I had the opportunity to work with children of different ages. I feel I could be of benefit to any child in need of assistance. I am looking forward to establishing strong roots in this community.
My teaching style is very personal. I try to teach from experience. I relate to children and listen to their concerns while encouraging their individual growth. It is very important to listen and then make them aware of their choices and their responsibility for their choices. It is also important to set an example through my own actions. I enjoy learning and feel that my enthusiam can be contagious. I get along very well with c ... read more
