More About This Tutor...

I entered Brown University with a desire to become a teacher; the ancient world drew me into pursuing a degree in Ancient Philosophy, during which I studied Ancient Greek. After graduating, I spent two years in the Peace Corps in West Africa, where I taught villagers how to improve their nutrition and crop raising techniques. Upon returning, I decided to return to my original love for teaching, and entered the Master's program at CU in Teaching Latin. During my first year of learning Latin, I became a tutor to an undergraduate during a Teaching Methods course, and have since given long-term private instruction to 2 middle school students, 2 high school students, 3 undergraduates, and 2 adults. I also became a substitute teacher for the Boulder Valley School District, and taught in the Latin classrooms of two high schools. Last spring, I taught the final semester of the beginning year of ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am currently completing my MA in Professional Writing. I completed a BS in Interdisciplinary Studies with concentrations in English, Business, and Social Science in 2007 while working full time as a Senior Escrow Officer. I have trained colleagues over the past 20+ years in the areas of banking and title as an Assistant Vice President and Senior Escrow Officer. I am eager to share my expertise in English and Business with students who desire to excel in life.
I have mentored and trained part time workers ranging in age from teens to seniors over the course of my career. My goal when mentoring and training individuals or groups, is to recognize and use weaknesses and strengths to make them as successful as they wish to be in work and in life.

My experience in tutoring began in high school when I volunteered for my local library, in a program aimed towards improving students’ reading ability. Having had considerable difficulty learning to read myself, I felt it was important that I attempt to pass this on to others. When I entered Knox College I was focusing on English, and ended up helping my fellow students with writing and editing their papers.
I have always sought to lead rather than force something upon the student by rote. Most important is to present the information in a way that is both interesting and memorable. It is my experience that people remember things better when they truly understand the process, and have reason to listen to the explanation.

I consider myself to be an excellent communicator. I use humor and down-to-earth style to "connect" with children in a way that creates trust and allows them to open up. I believe learning happens when students are encouraged to explore, ask, and dive into what interests them. When material is frustrating or challenging, it's my job to make the material accessible and interesting; to engage my student in a way that fosters that "aha!" moment. Montessori gave me the wisdom to offer my students "freedom within limits". I can help children find their own boundaries by creating respectful learning situations where children realize they are being asked to do their best, and gently encouraged through positive feedback.
I have taught elementary education as a classroom teacher for over twelve years in both public and private settings. I held a valid OH teacher's certificate in 199 ... read more
