A Little Bit About Me...

I taught a 5th grade for half a year in Missouri directly after graduating from college in January. I then taught a 5th/6th combination grade for one year when I moved to Colorado. After my marriage, I did substitute teaching for about 3 years. My most recent teaching experience was eight months of substitute teaching for K-8th grade in 2007. I have periodically tutored over the years in all subjects for students in elementary school.
I especially enjoy building the self confidence of students that have failed in an area. I believe their attitude about themselves plays a huge role in their ability to learn. I also try to create a firm foundation of basics so that they are able to easily build on that.

My style is a creative one with results.I have watched students start coming to school with confidence,prepared to meet teacher expectations instead of arriving fearful,knowing they didn't understand what to do,didn't have the materials to do it,or forgot or lost it.Demystification,respect,and rigor are what I offer my students.Responsibility,respect,and rigor are what I expect.I teach organization and empowerment techniques that give tutoring long-lasting effects, not just short-term results like a passing grade on next week's test. As a businesswoman for over 20 years, I believe in prudent use of resources and measurable results. My students and I will have a plan and will assess and course correct repeatedly on the path to success.

I love working with children and I believe in high level of excellence in education. I believe all children can do well in studies, but they need different methods of learning. Some children need more visual methods; some need more practice and some need more hands-on experience to understand the subject better. My goal is to give them confidence by patience and encouragement. I believe a good educator can make a world of difference in a child’s education. I strive to make a difference in my students’ lives by giving them the confidence and solid foundation for higher education.

More About This Tutor...

I have been tutoring since high school & I absolutely love it. In 12th grade, I tutored fellow students grades 9-12 at my high school's tutorial center in various math, science, & spanish classes. Every Sunday, I taught my native language, Tamil, to preschoolers through a local non-profit organization. In college, I was involved in the Society of Women Engineers, through which I created & led weekly science experiments for 5th graders. I also tutored math students at a local charter school in grades 6-12 for 2 years. Additionally, I tutored an intro Java class in which I helped students debug their programs & review material for exams. In addition to my experience, my engineering background gives me an edge in tutoring math & science.
Due to my extensive experience in tutoring students of all ages, I am very good at tailoring my teaching toward the specific student's needs. I am ve ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As an engineer and mathematician I have experience in all areas of Aerospace engineering,including management and mentoring of engineers over much of my 44 year career at Lockheed Martin. I have also tutored math, phyics, and other related subjects.
My approach to teaching math and science is to thoroughly prepare a student by first emphasizing the fundamentals. Too many students get "lost" if advanced concepts are taught too soon. Then, once a student is ready, the studies should emphasize the students strengths and interests to the utmost possible.
