I am a laid back type of instructor and use my experience and intuition to create unique learning environments for each student. I like students to express themselves in their studies, and I encourage each student to express their natural gifts. I have a creative mind which allows me to relate to many types of students and many subjects and to use student's natural interests as a starting point for learning new material. I have taught for over 30 years in a variety of institutions, but mostly public schools. I am conversant in Spanish and have a broad range of interests and fields of knowledge, including English literature, Math, History, Science, current events and Politics.

I love developing and fostering a positive, trusting relationship with my student. By becoming acquainted and appreciating my student's motivations and learning style, I tailor my instruction to best suit my student's needs. I firmly believe that a teacher must be both flexible and intuitive. Whether I am teaching through discovery or through direct instruction, I continually assess and respond to my student's level of understanding in learning the new material. It is through this dynamic learning environment that I am able to make math both accessible and rewarding. I thrive on the "Ah ha!" moments that build my student's confidence. Extremely driven to achieve academically, I graduated magna cum laude with a BS in Applied Mathematics from the University of Colorado at Boulder. While completing my coursework, I gained real world experience applying high level mathematics as a research a

I love, and am passionate about teaching children of all ages. I am a mother of three, and all of them have drastically different learning styles. I believe there are ways to teach that can encourage the child in their strenghts, and weaknesses and learn how to learn by emphasizing these strengths. I have worked a number of years in Early Childhood, Elementary level of Education, Middle School, and Special Education. I have also worked with children from the age of 6 weeks to 18 years old. I have worked as both a worked as a Para-educator and a teacher in a classroom with students with behavioral disorders. I taught 6th grade math and science 2007-2008, 2008-2009 school years, I taught 5th grade.I have both a CO. Teaching License and a CA Teaching License. Both are multiple subject credentials.

The bachelors degree I received in English Literature and Spanish allowed me to spend two years serving as a United States Peace Corps volunteer in Ecuador. There, I became fluent in Spanish and decided to return to the United States to pursue degrees in both Elementary Education and teaching English as a Second Language. I have a Masters of Teaching and will be completing an additional masters degree in English this year. While pursuing those degrees, I taught Spanish to young students through second grade and was an assistant teacher for middle school students. Since completing my degree, I have taught first grade in a public school. My classroom was comprised of English language learners, to whom I was responsible for teaching all subjects. Using a variety of teaching strategies, I engage students with all learning styles including using music, creative writing, visual arts, interper

Tutoring the children over the last two years has been the most rewarding work for me. When a middle school child actually gets up, goes and gets a dictionary, and looks up the meaning, pronunciation, and spelling of a word, without having direction from me, it makes my heart sing. Never have I had that feeling before, therefore it is my goal to continue to provide any child with the best tools, a positive mindset, and forward ambition to achieve the best opportunities in life that only an education can give them. I believe it is imperative that people of all ages, ethnicity, and socio-economic status have access to the best avenue to attain wealth, prosperity, and an increased quality of life: an education. It is my hope that when my students leave my class that they feel hopeful, excited, and energetic about their futures. Securing a BS in Political Science was a process that allow

I have been engaged in tutoring since college; started a tutoring program for inner city kids in Atlanta, GA while in College. I have a B.S. degree in Biology and therefore have a lot of experience in the sciences and mathematics. I also worked with Step Ahead Tutors in Milwaukee, Wisconsin prior to recently moving to Denver, CO. During the last 10 years I have tutored middle school, high school, and medical students in an array of math and science subject. love teaching and working with all children but I am capable of teaching all ages. I am flexible, patient, and persistent and try to couple my persistence with humor and light-heartedness when teaching challenging subjects. I try to convey to all students who struggle that at some point, everyone has academic challenges; and that it's 'not where you start, but where you finish.'

I believe that all children have the potential to learn in whatever capacity they are given as long as a connection has been made with the child. Teachers need to look at each student individually and be able to capitalize on their strengths and weaknesses, rather than mold the student into a one size fits all lesson. All it takes for teachers to see some level of success is for them to be patient with their students and remember that all students learn at their own pace. Teachers entered this profession because they care about children and want to help and it is that basic principle that guarantees a successful student. I have spent the majority of my career working with students who have struggled to maximize their potential either because of their economic/home life situation (SES)or their inability to make meaningful connections with their teachers. I make it a priority to make the c

I believe that every student deserves the individual attention they require to excel. I am capable of offering this help to your child: I am very patient, flexible and considerate, but I also push my students very hard because it truly helps them attain their academic goals. I take pride in working with my students to find the teaching approach that best suits their learning style. Sometimes a child needs more help than they are getting from their teacher alone, and that is where I can help. A good tutor can have a tremendously positive impact on a student’s academic performance, and I strive to advance the minds and lives of all of the students that I help. I graduated Summa Cum Laude and Phi Beta Kappa from the University of Denver with a double major in History and Mathematics. However, I pushed myself to succeed in many other subject areas as well, including Theatre, Spanish and Lead

Everyone is different so the first lesson is always about finding the best way to teach that student. The three different ways that people learn are hearing, seeing, and doing but different combinations work better for different children. I believe that all children can meet their potential if they can be taught in an appropriate method. Children should be limited by their own preferences and not by a subject's "difficulty". By finding the proper method a tutor can and should mold their lessons for that method. I have tutored students in Geometry for half a year officially, and tutored students in physics unofficially for the past 5 years. Before that I worked in a boy scout camp for 6 years and I have always worked well with children. I have earned a BS in Physics which has given me an understanding of many areas of science and my minor in mathmatics has given me a great understanding o

I have quite a bit of experience, in both the tutoring and the teaching fields. While working in Los Angeles as an actor, I needed to take other jobs to supplement my income. Pursuant of this, I worked for 2 years as a tutor for Ivy West in Los Angeles, tutoring high school students to prepare for the SAT. I tutored both one-on-one and in the classroom setting. Since 2003, I have been substitute teaching for LAUSD, DPS and other private schools. During this time, I have done many "Long Term" assignments that required me to lesson plan, evaluate, and manage students. I found that I enjoy teaching as much, or more than, acting. My style is to have students working and interacting as much as possible. I don't do much lecture, but rather, design the classses so the students can work independently or in groups while I advise them.

Throughout my past experience as a tutor, I have learned that there are many different ways that children learn, each of them unique and special in their own right. Traits which help bring out the best in each child definitely include patience, persistence, empathy, and consideration for each unique learning style. While tutoring a child, goals should be well communicated between the child, parents, and tutor, as the best outcomes are the result of a team effort to succeed. While in highschool, I was approached by several of my Advanced Placement teachers to assist and tutor various Elementary and Middle School children in the district. I continued with these tutoring sessions throughout the remainder of my highschool education, having 3-4 students at one time, focusing on subjects such as History/Social Sciences, English, Math (Algebra and Geometry) and Science (Botany, Anatomy, Bio
