brian g. - Denver, CO 80226 (37.7 mi) - Chess Tutor - $29.50/hr.
I am a laid back type of instructor and use my experience and intuition to create unique learning environments for each student. I like students to express themselves in their studies, and I encourage each student to express their natural gifts. I have a creative mind which allows me to relate to many types of students and many subjects and to use student's natural interests as a starting point for learning new material. I have taught for over 30 years in a variety of institutions, but mostly public schools. I am conversant in Spanish and have a broad range of interests and fields of knowledge, including English literature, Math, History, Science, current events and Politics. I have taught grades 3-12, and have experiences teaching all income levels and socio-economic backgrounds.

Stephen H - Lochbuie, CO 80603 (13.6 mi) - Chess Tutor - $41.50/hr.
Each time I have taught a different age-level I have sought to accommodate myself to the learning style of that particular level, whether psychokinetic for kindergarten and preschool, audio-visual for lower elementary, or verbal-phonemic for upper-level students and adults. It was in the teaching of adults that I encountered my most challenging situations, and even today the pedagogy is not nearly as simple as would appear at face-value. Reference to Ken Pike's tomes on the fundamentals of tagmemics, James Stanfield's affective pointers for students of various emotional statuses, and even the philosophy of Noam Chomsky on English deep structure, were all consulted early and often and at one time or another throughout my career. I have been involved every year since 1975 in the work of an educator, mostly for pay, but occasionally as a volunteer, either community- or faith-based, in three

Easton E - MILLIKEN, CO 80543 (22.2 mi) - Chess Tutor - $36.00/hr.
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.

James M - Lafayette, CO 80026 (30.7 mi) - Chess Tutor - $36.50/hr.
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

Raymond P - Longmont, CO 80501 (30.8 mi) - Chess Tutor - $38.00/hr.
When I graduated college I found myself wanting to help others. I began doing this by counseling youth who had substance abuse issues. For a time I also worked with the youth at a homeless shelter. Helping them with homework, ESL studies, and math skills. The youth there were a variety of ages and backgrounds, so I had to adapt my style to their needs. My education allowed me to focus on child development and the various stages of cognitive development. This helped shape my ability to help a variety of age groups based on their level of understanding. By relating information in terms that were easy to understand for them, I have been successful in helping them learn new skills and ideas. I enjoy teaching a great deal and working with all ages of children. However my favored age group is adolescents. I try as much as possible to appeal to as many learning styles as I can in each

Stefan R - Denver, CO 80247-1181 (31 mi) - Chess Tutor - $38.50/hr.
Securing a BS in Political Science was a process that allowed me to examine a comprehensive body of knowledge that deals with the structure of our country, our belief systems, and our government. Having recently graduated from UCDHSC’s MBA program with an Entrepreneurial track, I leave the university equipped with a new set of skills. Most of the curriculum was heavy on the writing side, forcing me to take a hard look at my grammatical skills, but allowing me an opportunity to grow and learn. The volume of written work over the entire MBA Program was massive, but it allowed me to hone my research skills and refine my writing style. Having many integrated collaborative group projects over the duration of my attendance familiarized me to the team member mentality prevalent in our current work environments. I have tutored pupils in English, math, social sciences, physics, mathematics,

Kenneth K - Broomfield, CO 80020 (31.1 mi) - Chess Tutor - $37.50/hr.
I have been a substitute teacher in all academic subjects. I have managed a classroom of 5-12th graders as well as presented the lesson prepared by the teacher for that day. This experience has increased my knowledge of the behavior of middle and high school students. In addition to my substitute teaching duties, I have accumulated over 600 hours in the classroom through internships and student teaching. I participated in the “Summer in the City” internship given by the New York City Board of Education in the summer of 2003. This gave me invaluable experience with a diverse learning population in an urban learning environment. Furthermore, I have performed over sixty hours of one-on-one tutoring in all subjects.
I graduated from the State University of New York College at Geneseo in December, 2003 with a Bachelor of Science in Biology and a provisional teaching certificate in B

Thomas M - Loveland, CO 80538 (32.3 mi) - Chess Tutor - $35.00/hr.
I believe that everyone, children and adults alike, can learn through patience, creativity and organized lessons. I make it fun and interesting, and possess many years of interesting real world experiences to draw on to help students understand and learn. While at Devry Institute of Technology, I was ranked in the top 3% of National Engineering students. This degree required advanced mathematics including Calculus, differential equations, and network synthesis. It also included computer programming and electronic circuit theory and design. In my career I have taught Windows, MS Office, robotics and programming to adults, helped teenagers graduate from high school, and helped my 7 year old daughter learn math.

Bobby T - Denver, CO 80221 (32.8 mi) - Chess Tutor - $40.50/hr.
My undergraduate degree in biochemistry provides a solid foudation in the sciences such as Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, and Biology. The reading and writing skills I learned during my course studies further supplemented my overall skill sets, and make me a well rounded candidate for tutoring. I tutored for Denver Relay, a program mentoring and tutoring at-risk children, grades 6-8, in math, science, reading, writing, mentoring, and life skill development. 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 ski

Jason S - Denver, CO 80203 (32.8 mi) - Chess Tutor - $38.00/hr.
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

Lee B - Longmont, CO 80503 (33.2 mi) - Chess Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I have taught elementary school in Colorado for 34 years. I have basically taught 2nd-6th graders, and taught a middle school class (combination 6th/7th/8th) one year. The past seventeen years, I have taught gifted/talented students. G/T students usually have asynchronous development, meaning they have strong abilities in some subjects and are weaker in others. Some g/t students are twice-exceptional, meaning they are gifted in particular subjects but have learning disabilities which need to be addressed in others. Therefore, I have experience with the entire spectrum of learning disabled through profoundly gifted students. I am a master teacher in all subject areas, except the arts. I love teaching and working with all children. I believe all children can learn, but each in different ways. I try to discover each student's particular learning style to help them successfully enjoy

Paul S - Superior, CO 80027 (33.5 mi) - Chess Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I have worked with students who are very bright, and just wanted to score a little higher on their boards, and students who had trouble passing their courses before they came to me for help. Whether I assist the student to get a "C" in their math course, or an 800 on the SAT math section, I have always enjoyed working with children. I know the material, and I have the patience to explain and make sure the student understands. As an ivy league graduate, I have attained a top-notch education and had access to the best professors in the world. Through my major I have studied mathematics, including Algebra, Geometry, Algebra II, Calculus, and Statistics. I have tutored high school students for several years in their homes, mostly for SAT prep and Algebra. My SAT I scores were 710M and 710V.
