Marlene G - Fort Collins, CO 80525 (7.1 mi) - Teacher Cert Exams Tutor - $37.00/hr.
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 foundation in every subject area is the key to students' learning and retention. Teaching the "Hows" and "Whys"---not just the "Whats" (the answers)--is imperative as is critical thinking and organizational development! Also, relevant, meaningful applications of learned material are essential and encouraged.
Being a results-oriented, caring tutor and mentor is always my ultimate goal---with smiles all around! Teaching competence while developing confidence is the key to effective learning! 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. C

Lisa R - Fort Collins, CO 80526 (7.1 mi) - Teacher Cert Exams Tutor - $35.50/hr.
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 test-ta

Kenneth O - Longmont, CO 80503 (19.9 mi) - Teacher Cert Exams Tutor - $41.00/hr.
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 schools have used over the years to educate students that are still valid. My task as a tutor is to find out something about the difficulties they are having with a particular subject or lesson, and then plot a path that will lead them to success in the particular lesson they are having trouble with. I must to my best to break down complex problems into a step-by-step process that will lead the student to understanding and discovery. 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 elementar

Lona B - Fort Lupton, CO 80621 (30.7 mi) - Teacher Cert Exams Tutor - $37.50/hr.
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
