Michael S - Estes Park, CO 80517 (26.8 mi) - Study Skills Tutor - $42.00/hr.
My experience with tutoring ranges from being tutored in middle school at Sylvan Learning Center (due to not being challenged enough in my private school classroom) to tutoring fellow classmates and my friends' younger siblings in a range of subjects during high school and college. I have extensive experience instructing and guiding 12 through 17 year olds from working as a camp counselor for three consecutive summers.
The nature of my double major in religion and philosophy from Calvin College dictated that the bulk of my coursework focused on abstract thinking, theoretical reasoning, and argumentative essay writing. The liberal arts collegiate curriculum I pursued included calculus and metaphysics among other challenging and broadening courses.
I am driven by creative problem solving, challenging situations, and helping those around me succeed. I enjoy working hard for my o

Randall B - Estes Park, CO 80517 (32.7 mi) - Study Skills Tutor - $37.00/hr.
Teaching in a major metropolitan school district has allowed me to teach among a very diverse population. I use a variety of teaching strategies and assess my students' progress regularly. I have extensive training in measuring the learning needs of students. My strength in teaching stems from maintaining a positive learning environment, teaching at levels my students are comfortable with, and encouraging higher level thinking skills.
Major subjects I am experienced in (11 years) are Accounting, Finance, Computer Applications, ACT Preparation, Job Skills, and Business Writing. I have taught high school Accounting, Finance, Computer Applications, Web Design classes for the past 11 years. I do have experience teaching Accounting at the junior college level as well. In 2004, I was chosen Teacher-of The-Year by my colleagues and students. I am proficient in teaching job skills, study sk

OraLouise S - Estes Park, CO 80517 (33.8 mi) - Study Skills Tutor - $39.50/hr.
I have been through a teaching credential program for elementary education and chose not to teach in a classroom environment because I prefer one-on-one and small group interaction. I've also earned a bachelor's degree in Liberal Arts because I personally enjoy and value a broad education. My master's degree in counseling reflects my concern for people, my ability to listen and respond to individual needs. I've also been a Teacher's Aide at the Elementary school level and a Substitute teacher at the Elementary, Middle, and High School levels in English, history, science, mathematics, the arts and government. I love working with kids and strive to identify, support and encourage each individual's gifts, strengths, and abilities, while also assisting them with his or her areas of challenge. I am patient, respectful and believe that children and youth respond best to positive reinforcem

Carie C - Estes Park, CO 80517 (35.2 mi) - Study Skills Tutor - $35.50/hr.
During the last three years of my undergraduate college career, I was a Mathematics tutor for student athletes. Although the courses covered while tutoring ranged from basic math to calculus, I am more comfotable tutoring algebra and geometry. I earned my BA with a double major in Mathematics and Russian in just four years. After college, I helped my sister and step-sister with their math and math-related physcis problems. During my three years of formal tutoring, I was able to change my tutoring styles to fit the needs of the student. Everyone learns differently and it is important to realize and adjust my tutoring accordingly.

Richard T - Nederland, CO 80466 (42.6 mi) - Study Skills Tutor - $38.50/hr.
I provide good mental discipline in my tutoring along with a comfortable working environment. My lessons blend structure and sensitivity to the student’s individual learning style. I often assist students with specific tasks such as organizing and completing their school work, yet I am open to creative teaching approaches. I give firm and intelligent direction, helping students to accomplish their goals. I keep my “eye on the ball” when the student‘s attention strays away from the lesson. I am patient, focused, and very experienced. I have a degree in English from Syracuse University in New York. I have 15 years of tutoring and teaching experience in English and Spanish. My previous work positions include: teaching Spanish at the University of Colorado (CU) in Boulder, tutoring English and Spanish at CU-Boulder, and tutoring English and Spanish at Front Range Community College in Longmo

Pierre D - Boulder, CO 80302 (47.6 mi) - Study Skills Tutor - $35.50/hr.
In my past I have taught many years as a tennis instructor and ski instructor. I also taught at a Federal correctional Institution in Englewood, Colorado in their Education Department in 1990 and 1991. i tutored inmates for their 8th grade equivalency as well as several others through their GED's. In 2002 through 2004 I also was the training officer for Star West Aviation. My teaching style was, and always has been to use humor and patience to bring my students along and to achieve where they had failed in the past. I found, especially in the prison system, that people achieve best when you make the work interesting and also within the student's ability. No one wants to feel stupid and there is always a tremendous joy in even grown adults when they "get it." In 1975 I had been teaching tennis for the City of Boulder Parks and Recreation Department for a year and elected to attend

Sherry H - Golden, CO 80403 (51 mi) - Study Skills Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I am a retired Boulder valley teacher and I have taught from the preschool to college level for over 20 years. Most recently, I worked as an ESL and reading teacher. My training was modeled after reading recovery and involved one year of supervised teaching one-on-one with children who were struggling readers. The goal of this training is to help children work with their strengths as readers, rather than focusing on their weaknesses. Children learn the strategies that they need in order to be successful, independent readers. The work I do with them is very focused and begins with a thorough diagnostic assessment of their reading abilities. I have six years of experience working one-on-one with children to improve their reading. I also have extensive experience teaching and writing with both native English speakers and second language learners from the elementary to college level.
