As a teacher with the Colorado Department of Corrections for 28 years, I had the opportunity to teach several subjects at several levels. Through my experience I had the opportunity to teach reading at a very fundamental level to adults. I also taught math and English to inmate students studying for their GED. I especially enjoyed the opportunity to teach English as a secondary language to non- English speaking students. I helped develop and teach an English grammar curriculum for a Corrrectional staff class. In 2005 I was honored by my peers to be given the Correctional Teacher of the year for a 5 state region. Some of my most rewarding times in life have been those when I help a student understand a concept that has bewildered him. I am usually able to find a unique way to make the student think about his learning. I try to teach to mastery. I don't believe efficient learning tak

I feel that teaching children is a very important field of work. Our young people deserve educational training and experiences which challenge them to grow, intellectually, physically, culturally, socially and academically, regardless of disability or gifting. I am aware of various learning styles and try to adapt my teaching style to individual needs in a calm, patient, active learning setting. It's my purpose to motivate and provide a positive structured learning process where the outcomes are lasting, nurturing a lifelong love of learning,reading and exploring the world around us. I have a strong desire to use my abilities and interests as a professional educator. I have a Bachelor’s Degree in Business Administration and Accounting. I have a strong math, reading and social sciences core subject background. Since January of 2010 I have been serving as a substitute teacher in both Pueb

I have helped children prepare for preschool through games and activities, and community college students brainstorm ideas for transfer essays. I am very organized, responsible and trustworthy. I have worked at a Montessori preschool and am comfortable using hands-on, creative methods for learning. Each student is different and learning approaches need to reflect that. I have worked with sensory-sensitive preschoolers, mentally challenged high school students, and ESL students ranging in age from 3 to 40. Whether they needed to learn how to tie their shoes, write an essay, the parts of an atom, how to use a conjunction, why the slope of a line is important, or how to write their name, I was there to help. I worked at Moorpark College as an ESL and Writing Tutor, helping students discover ways to identify and clarify ideas, refine a topic, outline ideas, and develop the skills needed to w

I have recently retired from the U.S. Army as a medic. During my service, I was frequently responsible for both formal and informal teaching and training. I learned to easily adapt to various learning styles, learning barriers, and researching subjects. While still in the service, I utilized my lunch breaks and evenings to further my education and emerged with my AA and completed Nurse Assistant training while still serving and my BS only one year later; two months after retiring. Currently, I am working on my MS in Health Promotion with a certificate in Disaster in Public Health. I am capable of producing a lesson and effectively teaching any subject. I am very adaptive. I accept challenges warmly. I love working with children; I teach at my church at the elementary level weekly. I also enjoy working with adults in a non-threatening way. I am a patient person and know that lear

I have a bachelor degree in Chemistry from Colorado College and I have also taken a large number of math courses at the undergraduate level (Calculus 1, 2, and 3, Linear Algebra, number theory, and mathematical models in biology). I have worked as a college tutor for 2 years while completing my degree and I currently teach middle school science. I believe in inquiry based learning where students learn new things by forming questions that they want to answer. When working on a problem I encourage students to come up with questions that they want to answer, to make lists of things they need to know, and then to think of an attack plan to complete the math or science problem. I am an extremely patient teacher and I work hard to make sure that every concept is understood before moving onto the next one. I believe that each student learns differently and I am very willing to tailor my teachin

I believe that there is a scientist in each and everyone of us.everyone is different,all of us are good at something or the other.I believe if we are good at something ,for example ,painting,its because it seems interesting for us.So my point is to make the subject interesting and understandable for the kids. I assume everyone is capable of learning the material and try different ways of introducing and reinforcing information until it sinks in. When I was in high school ,I had a passion for physics.I realized that I should know more about the subject,so I took my bachelor degree in physics .Along with physics I studied electronics and mathematics.I really believe that I enjoyed each and every moment of my science lessons and because of that I was honored as the First Rank holder in my university.While doing my masters degree in the same university ,my professors gave me opportunity to

My principle idea of teaching is that no one learns the same. Having tutored a wide variety of students taught me that I have to be flexible and adaptive in explaining the subject. This allows me to adapt to the student I am tutoring in order to help them achieve their desired goal in understanding the subject. I began tutoring mathematics when I was still a student and this allows me to relate to the students. During the past three years I have tutored a wide range of mathematic subjects ranging from high school geometry and algebra to college differential equations. I have specifically spent the majority of my time tutoring students in college algebra. After obtaining my mathematics degree, it enabled me to gain a better understanding of math that allows me to translate such a difficult subject to students.

I really enjoy teaching and the whole learning process intrigues me as well. I teach with urgency, through quick pacing and small incremental steps. I am very patient, giving of my time, and possess multiple ways of explaining material. Every child learns differently and if one method isn't successful, another should be tried. I have been told by many students that I have a unique ability to make difficult material very easy. I believe in mastery learning and material should be re-taught if needed. The goal is autonomy and fluency for students. I have ten years of experience working with youth. My involvement began in 1997 as a volunteer youth leader at a local high school. After a year I worked three summers as a youth counselor and program director at a youth camp. I received my B.S. in Mathematics in 2001 and have been teaching since. I have taught all math levels from Pre-A

My teaching style starts usually with a question to spark and interest, or perhaps another question. I idenify with the audience and that is extremely helpful. I am patient and enjoy when a student finds confidence by learning something new. I use some props and examples to aid a particular subject, and I speak English very well so there is no miscommunication. I am interested in working again as a Mathematics Tutor, I've had a very enriching previous experience from former employers at Colorado State University-Pueblo, where I've obtained two degrees, a B.S. in Mathematics and a B.S.B.A. in Economics. I love education and working along with others. I'm very passionate in continually cultivating myself and growing, in fact, my last employer hired me to teach English in Taiwan! It was wonderful experience.

I tend towards a "supporting /coaching" style when teaching. Although there is no one best style for all situations, this style highlights the value of encouraging independent thinking, problem solving, and ownership for learning. It’s my goal not just to dispense information to students, but to coach them to turn the information into knowledge and eventually wisdom (21st Century learning strategy). I am proficient at discerning between ability (skill or talent) and motivation (willingness to learn) in order to better guide a learner towards success. Finally, I am a firm believer that all students can learn and strive to make a difference in their lives (see experience). One of my key strengths as a science and math teacher is that after receiving BS & MS chemistry degrees, I’ve spent over 20 years as an industrial scientist (Allied Signal Aerospace, Eastman Kodak, & Ford).

As a student athlete I understand the demands of both schoolwork and extracurricular activities. I have a bachelors degree in biology which has giving me a background in biology, anatomy, chemistry, psychology and math. Though I have not tutored before I have been a director of a daycare in which I was responsible for helping multiple students with homework. I believe learning should be fun for both the student and the teacher. I am a vary laid back person and do not believe in putting extra presser on a student. Children learn better in a relaxed environment. I have always found it fulfilling to help a child gain an understanding of a difficult concept.
