A Little Bit About Me...

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 years teaching these subjects to students grades K-12. The past 10 years I spent teaching high school students English, literature, credit recovery, writing and reading. I am an excellent reader and writer and accomplished at sharing these passions and skills with students. I believe education is the greatest tool a person can possess, and helping to provide students with a good education is the most positive and proactive way to make a difference in the evolution of our world. Literacy skills are crucial to the advancement of all learning.

A Little Bit About Me...

As a retired Air Force aircraft maintenance technician much of my time in the Air Force was spent as a supervisor training and mentoring young airmen to maintain sophisticated jet aircraft. I have spent the last three years working as a substitute teacher. I have worked in every grade level in elementary school, and have worked in all academic disciplines in middle school and high school. I hold an Associate of Arts degree from the Community College of the Air Force in Aircraft Maintenance Technology, and a Bachelor of Arts degree from Western Governors University in Educational Studies and Social Studies. I am qualified to help students with technical subjects, math, English and composition, reading, and Social Studies.
Each child has an individual learning style the teacher needs to discover and build upon. I believe there are many tried and proven methods of education that schoo ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Upon graduating from Penn State University with a double major in Sec. Education and Psychology, I began my new career teaching secondary English, World History & Cultures, & Psychology. Coming West, I taught middle school English & Social Studies in Colorado for four years. In addition, I have been a business college instructor & counselor for 13 years. Thus, overall, I have had 20+ great years' experience instructing at the sec. and post-sec. levels. Now semi-retired in Fort Collins, CO, I have tutored at middle school levels in English comp., writing skills' development, and U.S. history--and have served on CSU's tutorial staff--and loved every opportunity!
Effective, long-term educational results occur best in a teaching environment that includes energy, enjoyment, and enthusiasm (i.e., the joy of learning!). With that motivation, I believe that building a strong foundatio ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have experience as both a teacher and a tutor. I graduated from the University of Illinois with a degree in English/Secondary Education. Throughout my years in college I learned theories of education, observed in classrooms and student taught at both the middle school and high school level. After graduating college in 2003, I taught 9th grade English for 2 years in a charter school in Houston, TX. After I relocated to Chicago, IL, I entered the corporate sector; however, I continued to volunteer as a tutor for 2 years. Given my past experiences, I have had the opportunity to work with students at many different levels and have tutored in various subject areas.
I have always been a believer in giving students a foundation from which to learn and grow. I enjoy teaching students basic skills that can be applied to many different subject areas. For example, I think things like t ... read more
