Spenser R. - Fort Collins, CO 80526 (20.4 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $35.00/hr.
College level. I have helped tutor AVID high school students when I was a senior at Cherry Creek High School. I enjoy helping the kids learn and believe that being a tutor would pay it forward since I had so much help from tutors. I always helped my friends out because I was in higher level classes than them some of the times. I also worked with tutors and know how much of a difference they can make. I'm currently studying at CSU and still work with friends on homework if they need help. I believe in success. There is no guarantee someone will learn on the first try. It's all about enjoying the learning experience and positive reinforcement. I also believe in humor and think that it can help a lot in peoples difficult situations.

Saul F. - Fort Collins, CO 80523 (22.1 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $40.00/hr.
Flexible, down-to-earth -- I try to figure out how YOU learn best. I am a retired college/university professor, and have been tutoring actively for the last six years (privately, as well as in a mentoring program at a community college). My tutoring experience has focused primarily upon mathematics, statistics, writing, Test Prep (e.g., ACT,SAT, GRE, math placement tests), chemistry and economics. Students have told me that I explain otherwise difficult material (especially in mathematics), in a down-to-earth and commonsense manner that makes sense intuitively.

Josh C. - Fort Collins, CO 80523 (22.1 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $22.50/hr.
Well, throughout my life, I have worked with fellow students to foster better understanding of class material both in myself and in my classmates. In addition to informal, unpaid cooperation in mastering class material, I have also held positions tutoring both as a freelance tutor and as an hourly employee of the Academic Advancement Center, a Trio Program run at Colorado State University. At this job, where I have worked for the past two years, I have tutored low-income, first-generation, and disabled students (both physical and learning disabilities) in a variety of subjects including Psychology, French, Composition, Sociology, and Spanish. I tend to use the socratic method a lot to help my students arrive at their own conclusions and understanding of material, paired with some basic, interactive instruction when students do not already understand some of the material involved.

Renee W. - Boulder, CO 80301 (38.2 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $30.00/hr.
I'm an environmental engineer who has been tutoring for the last 13 years. I enjoy working with children and excell at working with children who might be struggling with comprehension or who have learning disabilities. I have experience working with children who are ESL or ELL. I have worked with elementary, secondary and high school students. Make learning fun and everyone wins! Not all children absorb material the same way. I try to explore different ways of presenting material and working through concepts to relate the material to something that can be understood.

Carie C - Estes Park, CO 80517 (12.6 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $35.50/hr.
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. 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.

Susan R - Fort Collins, CO 80521 (20.9 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $38.50/hr.
One of my greatest strengths as a teacher is my ability to discern whether or not a student has understood a concept. I recognize that students learn through different methods and I know how to present complex information in a variety of ways so that a student grasps the topic. I believe in having students demonstrate learning by performing activities and exercises that reinforce presented material. I have a good rapport with students of all ages and they find me accessible which enhances the teacher-student relationship.
My ultimate goal is for students to become self directed learners who can eventually take control of their own educational experience. Once they have confidence in their skills and abilities they will then be able to be successful both in school and beyond. I possess both a B.S. degree in zoology/ biology and a M.S. degree in environmental health. I have a second

Paul S - Fort Collins, CO 80126 (21 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $63.50/hr.
I love to work with children and adults. I feel that the best way for my students learn is for them to get hands on experience whether that be guided problem solving or actual lab work. I think that through this way my students reach their greatest potential. I am a Colorado State University graduate with my major in Natural Sciences as well as a completed Initial Teacher License. I have not only an extensive understanding of science but I also know how to specifically teach science. I greatly enjoy helping others learn and I had a tutoring position last spring at a local high school (Fossil Ridge).

Kristin H - Fort Collins, CO 80526 (21.6 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $32.50/hr.
Although I earned a mathematics degree, I struggled to gain complete competence in algebra and geometry. I believe that my initial struggles have enabled me to become a better teacher because I constantly offer several ways of solving a problem to my students. I do not have to pause and wait for them to comprehend the material the first try. I can simply try re-phrasing or a different method. Also, I am intrinsically patient and a people-pleaser. I love seeing children succeed and value their success. As a mathematics graduate, I am very detail-oriented and organized. Throughout college I tutored college students in calculus, business math, and statistics. I also tutored high school students in Algebra 1 and 2, Trigonometry, and Geometry. My easy-going and patient teaching style created many referrals that made me a successful and lucrative tutor. During the past six years I hav

Cynthia A - Fort Collins, CO 80526 (21.9 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $35.50/hr.
My goal when teaching is to see each student not only arrive at a point of understanding, but to witness a sense of joy and confidence in the process, as the sense of "I can do it!" becomes the motivation for trying harder and gaining results. I like to encourage students with positive affirmation, but I am also straight-forward about the importance of hard work, correct results, and honest effort. I believe that students need to come up with their own answers through gentle coaching and learn that they are capable of studying independently. My job as a tutor would be to help each student believe in his/her capability to succeed by encouraging, coaching, and holding a high standard. I studied both music and Spanish at Colorado State University, and during my time as a student, I worked as a piano teacher in my own home. I enjoyed interacting one-on-one with each student, as they were

Mamie C - Ft. Collins, CO 80526 (22.3 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $35.50/hr.
My degrees have taken me places that I never thought they would. I was excited to teach English in a school in Costa Rica for one year. There I was able to learn Spanish quickly as well as help elementary school children learn English. I taught grammar as well as science. I also tutored on the side in all subjects. Previous to this experience I tutored a fourth grader in geography, history, and spelling. In college I used many skills that helped me to prepare for teaching. A short list of these skills is math, creative writing, computer skills, memorization, and art work. Due to the fact that I was a science and art major I wrote many essays and made many different types of projects. For two semesters I did microbiology research, where I learned critical thinking and lab technique. I enjoy teaching children and have been assisting children in their homework for many years.

Carrie S - Loveland, CO 80538 (24.4 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $37.50/hr.
The more time I spend with kids, the more I realize how many different ways they learn. Kids have taught me a great deal about looking at things from a different point of view and teaching to a variety of levels, abilities, and learning styles. I KNOW each child has the ability to learn. Unfortunately, I also know each child has the ability to feel failure and confusion. My greatest pleasure is seeing students grasp a concept that was previously very foreign. A kid who breaks a smile while struggling to learn a challenging idea means success to me. I aspire to make students feel comfortable, supported, accepted, and encouraged through my patience, understanding, rethinking, and openness. Ideally, my students will find their own motivation, strength and determination to find future success in educational endeavors. I know I am making a difference in each life I touch and I feel lucky to h

Virgil B - Loveland, CO 80538 (25.3 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $35.50/hr.
As each student is unique, my teaching style is eclectic and tailored to the individual student as to how they best learn. Having a degree in Psychology gives me the unique opportunity to understand the individual, present them with techniques that promote better study habits, and increase their retention. I have dealt with situations of dyslexia, test anxiety, panic attacks, and challenging home/lifestyle situations, and have met with those challenges with success. As part of my continuing education I have taken a graduate class in Meta Cognition which is all about learning, learning styles, and how to create the best environments. As a nontraditional student at Casper College in Casper, WY I augmented my tuition costs as a peer tutor for two years specializing in Biology, Anatomy, and Psychology. I have extensive experience in writing research papers, and interpreting case study p

I am a graduate of Law School, but my first love and continued passion is education. I have vast life experiences as well as experiences in education that were both diverse and enriching. My English background has provided me with a great content-area knowledge; while my law background has taught me an analytical side to reading and writing. My love is working with kids. My true gift is working with kids who have otherwise had problems in an academic setting.

Sias S - Fort Collins, CO 80528 (26.3 mi) - Psychology Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I began tutoring Spanish in high school and have done it off and on since. I studied abroad in Spain for a semester and continue to work on my Spanish skills independently, and am very proficient in reading and writing Spanish. I have also tutored at Putnam Elementary School and Fort Collins High school, namely with reading/writing/English. I am currently tutoring independently in mathematics and because of my pre-med requirements, I can tutor almost any science field (General Chemistry, Organic Chemistry, Physics, Biology, Biochem, etc.) I also research for a professor at the University of Nebraska and help to write and edit dissertations/proposals in psychology and law, including the Drake Law Review. All throughout my educational career I have learned best through observation. I typically like to solve one problem for the student, allow them to observe, and then work through another p
