I have been a special education instructional paraprofessional for the past eight years. I worked for 2 years in elementary education and the past twelve years have been with high school students. I love helping struggling students learn and succeed in their education. Math is my specialty but I can also tutor in Reading, Social Studies, and Science. Over time I have figured out different teaching styles for my students who struggle with understanding. I love watching my students faces light up when they really get it!

Throughout high school and college, I worked as a nanny for many different families, for children of all age ranges. I absolutely love children, as I have one of my own, and always thought that I would have pursued an education in teaching had I not gravitated towards math. I believe I am a very patient person and understand that each child will learn and thrive in a different way; it is up to the educator (me) to best serve the needs of the child. I will always strive to make certain that I am meeting the needs of your child and am providing the best atmosphere possible. Upon graduation from Colorado State University with my BS in Finance, I began working as a licensed financial planner for a small boutique financial advisory firm in the Denver Tech Center. The experience I learned there opened doors for me at a large health insurance firm (Cigna) and later at the Pepsi Bottl

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 CO license is for K-6 and is my Initial Teaching License. The CA License is K-12 and adu

I have over 5 years of teaching experience. I taught high school English as a foreign language near Budapest for 3 years. During that time, I focused on teaching English language learners, helping over 150 students pass their EU fluency exams, teaching essay writing to prepare students for majors in English at the university level, and the skills they needed to analyze classic literature. Since returning to the United States, I have completed my Masters degree in Education with the University of Phoenix, taught pre-school and second grade. These experiences have given me the skills to not only teach higher levels of English but to also be able to give young students the tools they need to begin the reading and writing processes. To put it simply, I love teaching. I believe that every child can learn. The beauty of a private tutor is the one-on-one connection between the tutor and t

I like to work one on one with my students. This way, I can give each student my full attention. I like working with people of all ages, from six years old through adulthood. I love it when a person understands my explanation and is enthusiastic about having done so. I am patient and willing to go over any material many times until the student fully understands it. My English grammatical skills are excellent. Many friends from Japan and other countries who are graduate and undergraduate students have relied on me to make sure that their grammar and word usage is correct. I feel that, with my help, any student's writing skills will improve. Since graduating from the University of Albuquerque, I have worked in the New Mexico Governor's Office and been a guide for a Santa Fe outdoor museum. I also worked at the History Library, which is part of the Museum of New Mexico's Palace of the Gover

I am in my first year of teaching 5th grade at Wyatt Edison Charter School in Denver’s Five Points neighborhood. The student population I serve is 75% Latino, 24% African American and 1% Caucasian. As a member of Teach for America, I receive intensive training in multiple areas of effective teaching strategies. I’ve taught summer school math, reading, and writing in Atlanta Public Schools to students who have failed the previous school year. I hold a current Colorado teaching license and received a degree in Political Science and Sociology from Howard University. I love children and have many tactile and visual learners in my 5th grade class; thus, I use a lot of movement, realia and manipulatives in order to appeal to those learners. Students who typically have this learning style respond well to mnemonic devices, thus I encourage and teach self-created songs and gestures to increas

My teaching style starts with the class. I follow manuals as far as they can take me, but I like to get a feel for the class, learn there interests and disinterests and use those as teaching tools. My philosophy is: you learn a second language to help you advance in life and in the global economy. I think most students understand that, and if they don't I like to take the time to let them know the importance of a second language in this current global spectrum. I use music, clothes, food and shopping as key themes as well as some colloquial terms, nothing graphic, to lighten the mood every once in a while. I know it is not linguistics, but I enjoy emphasizing pronunciation as well, because regardless of how much you know, if you pronounce it poorly no one will understand you.

My teaching style could be described as modified Montessorian, in an attempt to appeal to all the senses, and to affect the learning channels of each student as a unique individual. Encouragement is lavished on even the adult students, and not all errors are equally vital to correct on an immediate basis. One observing any one of my classes could feel definitely "drawn in" if so desired. My experience in paid teaching (excluding numerous volunteer and non-paid opportunities) range from teaching Vietnamese refugee "boat-people" children (news film footage archived by Vanderbilt University) in 1975 through years of Orange County (CA) adult education in English as a Second Language to my present duties in metro Denver of teaching immigrant adults in English as a Second Language. Along the way, I also experienced fulltime day teaching of a kindergarten class in Fresno and a combined 7th-8th

Each time I have taught a different age-level I have sought to accommodate myself to the learning style of that particular level, whether psychokinetic for kindergarten and preschool, audio-visual for lower elementary, or verbal-phonemic for upper-level students and adults. It was in the teaching of adults that I encountered my most challenging situations, and even today the pedagogy is not nearly as simple as would appear at face-value. Reference to Ken Pike's tomes on the fundamentals of tagmemics, James Stanfield's affective pointers for students of various emotional statuses, and even the philosophy of Noam Chomsky on English deep structure, were all consulted early and often and at one time or another throughout my career. I have been involved every year since 1975 in the work of an educator, mostly for pay, but occasionally as a volunteer, either community- or faith-based, in three

As a classroom teacher I quickly learned to engage each student individually. I prefer tutoring because I can tailor my instruction to a specific student. Children have different learning styles so it is my responsibility as the instructor to adapt lessons to maximize learning for each child. Ideally I am able to guide a student to realize concepts in their own terms rather then dictate facts to them. I recently completed two years of teaching Physical Science in a secondary school in Namibia as a Peace Corps volunteer. Prior to that I earned a BS in Computer Science which included a mathematics minor and courses in physics and chemistry. I tutored throughout my time in the Peace Corps, my undergraduate studies and my high school years.
