Knowledge has come from observation and describing it.

The first thing I can say is necessary is to recognize the student can also teach the teacher. I respect the student's intelligence and I also devised techniques that build on acquiring knowledge. So if a child knows how to tell time and can count to 100, he of she is capable of learning how to multiply, From that comes division, and now they are ready for simple algebra. For science, E = mc2 is the building block for astronomy which leads into physics which leads to the speed of light and the compostion of elements within the cores of star and the structure of atoms, creation of molecules, life forms, and Newtons prism and the spectrum ot light to math and the metric system and the old systems of measures on which it is based, to history of the development of writing.

More About This Tutor...

My teaching style is extremely fluid. I've found that adapting classes to the unique needs and interests of each individual student is the best way to making a lasting impact on their educational growth.
A lifelong lover of reading, writing, and language in general, I supported myself through college by tutoring other students in Spanish and helping them edit/write their papers. Since then, I have tutored students between grades 6 and 12 in English related subjects, including spelling, vocabulary, and general writing. The past four months, I lived in San Juan del Sur, Nicaragua, where I spent two days a week tutoring local students in English as a second language, in addition to generally improving my Spanish skills.

My comments on tutoring Spanish : Spanish is my native tongue. I studied at the University of Puerto Rico and earned my B.A. in History, as well as a minor in Philosophy, from the University of Colorado. Dedicated and well mannered students only.

I am a newly grad from the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs; I earned my B.A. in History and a minor in philosophy. I maintained a 3.5 GPA and had the honor of being selected to study abroad at the University of Puerto Rico while writing my senior thesis on the socioeconomic conflicts of Puerto Rico's independence movement. I will be pursuing my Master's degree next fall, continuing the path of academia. I relate well to students because I am a lifelong student. Also I am a husband and a proud parent of three children. I am experienced at running a healthy household where academics reign supreme; dictatorship is often avoided under the guide of homework being an opportunity to show off. Kids find that fun. I am also aware of the challenges of parenting because I too am a parent.
There is not progress without dedication; there is no dedication without interest. I spark inte ... read more

Being bilingual can open up many job opportunities.

Whatever the student prefers and learns best.
I have experience with Spanish because my mom is from Juarez Mexico. She spoke Spanish to me ever since I was a baby. I speak in Spanish with my moms side of the family too. I am Hispanic and originally from El Paso TX. I have also taken a Spanish class in high school. I've never tutored before, but I believe I can definitely teach this language to those willing to learn.

I am a graduate of the University of Avignon located in France, where I earned a Bachelor’s degree in foreign languages with a specialization in English. I am a French citizen and have lived in France for twenty four years. I completed all my education in my country and moved to the United States in 2003. French is my native language. I have been teaching French for ten years, in many settings such as adult education, tutoring, and church programs. My teaching experience has afforded me the opportunity to assume various responsibilities at multiple levels, such as preparing students for examinations, directing an after-school language program and organizing intercultural exchanges.
Teaching French is my passion. I believe there is no age to start learning French as long as you learn it in a fun environment. I am very patient, a good listener and also understand how intimidating ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have been teaching guitar lessons for a year now. I have just graduated from Colorado State University Pueblo with my Bachelor's degree in Liberal Arts. In my education at CSU I have also acquired six credit hours in education classes and observed 60 hours in public schools.
In my experience as a musician, I have found that teaching a subject I love can really inspire students to excel. It's necessary to spread our knowledge to others. My specialty is music, but I love to teach in general because kids need good mentors. Each child is different so I use an individualized approach to my teaching styles. We all learn differently whether we are auditory, visual, or kinesthetic learners. I asses the student and provide the material/exercises necessary in order to create the best learning experience possible.

I am passionate about what I teach and I am committed to constantly seek new methods on how to effectively teach a foreign language. I am competent in my ability to get students to learn and believe that all students can learn. I consider myself engaging and able to reach students at whatever level or learning ability they are at.
My most extensive experience is with middle school students, although I currently teach Veterans who are seeking to re-enter college. I consider myself to be very compentent in what I do and have had tremendous opportunities because of my skills. For example, I worked as a Parent Partner for Migrant Headstart of Southern Colorado.

More About This Tutor...

I finally realized that teaching was my one true talent. I have always enjoyed providing people with new ways to think about whatever it is that they're learning. I took great care when teaching languages to convey the importance and relevance of diversity. I gave my students necessary references to their own lives and made an effort to pull their own experiences into their learning. When learing a language it is so much about memorizing, so I make it fun with flash cards and visuals so that the next time they hear that word or see it a few images race through their minds that we spoke about while studying so that they never forget the word or phrase.
As a student of foreign languages, I have traveled all over the world in search of new opportunities and knowledge. I earned my degree at the University of Colorado and spent one year studying abroad. During this time I tutored ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have been teaching for the last 18 years. I have taught Kindergarten, Spanish to 1st through 12th grades, Middle and High School English, and Intensive Reading to struggling elementary school students. I have tutored ESL to adults in the work place, and college students needing help for English competency tests. I am currently tutoring a woman lawyer from South America with her English. I can help you prepare for exams, your job or just to improve yourself. I am familiar with the Colorado State Standards for English and Spanish, and while in North Carolina helped some students prepare to test out of Spanish I at the college level.
I love helping people learn. I try to make my lessons enjoyable and practical. With Spanish, for example, I try to use props and role-playing whenever possible. I am patient and friendly. I have had past students return and tell me they apprec ... read more

Essential to learning is an environment that allows students to personalize and experiment with new-found knowledge, to enjoy the learning experience and to know that their instructor cares about their progress. Teaching methods are always tailored to student needs, and to meaningful activities for each student’s life and goals; activities engage students' cross-disciplinary and leisure interests, as well as their unique personalities and learning styles. We learn to “survive” in a second language, to make friends and talk about daily activities; and we learn to raise the level (written and oral) to academic and professional needs in both linguistic and social aspects of the culture.
I have taught and tutored second languages (French and Spanish) and English here and abroad with every age level, (including K-12, university and continuing education classes), have served as Director ... read more
