College Communications Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Denver, CO

I have lots and lots of experience with reading and writing to share! I have 30 + years of experience with composition - legal writing, high school and college composition, MLA and APA formatting, legal citations, and the elements of creative writing. I recently received an M.Ed. and Literacy Certificate from my alma mater, Regis University, and I am eager to share all of the knowledge and experience I have gained with your students. When I tutor students, I make sure they come away with better reading and writing skills and hopefully are more excited about learning! Their interest is key, so if I can help them build that, we are on the way to success! My teaching style is casual - I am not stuffy or formal, and I try to get right to the heart of what is holding a student back, or what the difficulty is that he or she is having. I establish rapport and then dig into the meat and pota

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. 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.

I absolutely love working with kids. I believe it is very important for a tutor not to simply tell a student how to do things, but to show them and then through questions and developing a consistent road map make them come up with the answer themselves. There is a huge difference between pretending to know how to do something and actually knowing. If the child understands through consistent questions and problem solving he/she will develope good habits throughout their school careers. I have been involved with the First Tee Program for over 10 years now. This program teaches children life lessons; such as honesty, integrity and sportsmanship through playing golf. This program is nationwide and has developed many young children into community leaders, respected business men/women and college athletes. I have been a tutor with this program since 1998. I believe it is very important

I am convinced that each and every person can learn when given the proper tools, opportunity and the support to take them to the next level. The key is learning what motivates, excites and propels each person to the next level and what the possibilities are for their potential. I cherish working with students either one-on-one or in small groups, so their progress can be monitored. I teach using creative methods and believe that learning can and should be fun. I also know that the best teachers and tutors are those who are passionate about their subject matter and about bringing students to their full potential. This is where the true results are experienced. As a lover of learning and education, and also all things international, I have always been interested in helping others learn. My BA education in marketing and communication has afforded me the chance to explore many aspects of bus

I have broad experience working with a variety of students in different settings. My combination of domestic and international teaching jobs gives me a unique perspective on teaching and learning styles, curricula, and student needs. Although my main subject has been English, I have also gotten to teach science, global studies, and physical education. In every class, I have had the opportunity to work one-on-one with each student, focusing on those who have special needs. My graduate degree in interdisciplinary humanities has kept my writing, editing and analytical skills sharply honed. I have a personal and professional passion for life-long learning. My passion for knowledge and the practical application of that knowledge usually creates an enthusiasm in my students, as well. With individual students, I try to find a motivating factor in his or her life that makes learning relevant

To effectively teach any subject I first take the time to clearly organize my thoughts on the subject, decide upon what objectives/information that I would like/need to convey to my students, and then prepare a complete lesson plan including clear goals and a concise agenda for day's topic,which will be shared with the students at the start of the lesson. During the next segment, I present and explain the chosen topic in enough detail to provide a foundation for the class to then be able to engage in a variety of interactive,skill mastery activites, designed to further clarify the subject in as many different ways as are necessary to meet the various learning styles and needs of all the students present. I have been teaching in both classroomas well as one-on-one settings here in the US as well as Europe and South East Asia for over 20 years. My students have been of all abilities and

I started tutoring as a result of my knowledge base and the needs of the young people I worked with. My first tutoring experience was with a young man who was studying pre-calculus. Since then, I have tutored in upper level mathematics, history and social studies, English composition, and basic sciences. I had a position as a history and social studies teacher for five years in a private school, and have also taught adult education and GED prep. My approach to education is extremely individualized. My students have taught me that we all learn differently, and that success is always reachable with patience and persistence. I find that creativity and a variety of approaches to learning are the keys to making this success happen.

Having been raised by two teachers, education has always been an important aspect of my life. One of the most important aspects of education, I feel, is determining the most effective learning style for oneself and being able to study and process information using that method. I do not believe that there is a child that is "unteachable," rather I trust in the fact that once a child has the necessary skills to process information the way it makes sense to them, every child has the capability to learn. I strive to make learning fun and use tricks such as writing songs, drawing pictures, flashcards, rapping and many more to aide in the process of understanding, comprehension and retention. For as long as I can remember I have been tutoring students in various subjects. My tutoring experience started when I was still in elementary school and has yet to be interrupted. I had the privilege

As an Ivy League graduate, I have always been driven to excel at whatever I put my mind toward and hold formal education in high regard. Throughout my graduate studies at Columbia, I was part of the Harlem Tutorial Program where we tutored local elementary students once a week and I found this a very rewarding experience that I would like to continue. The quantitative skills in math and statistics that I developed in business school was in additional to the strong writing skills that I developed as a dual political science and philosophy major in undergraduate school. While I was in high school, I also participated in a tutoring program in a nearby community of foster children and remember enjoying this experience very much. As a professional, I have taught various levels of students through the Junior Achievement program here in Denver. I am the daughter of two special education tea

I have a substitute teaching license from the state of Colorado. I have been subbing for Denver Public Schools and Cherry Creek School District for over three years. I have worked with ages ranging from Kindergarten to 8th grade. I enjoy working with students and have a high level of patience with each grade level. I am usually pretty laid-back and allow students leeway to have a bit of fun while they learn. I believe that without a little fun in their daily routines, students grow stagnant and bored easily. I enjoy feeling that I make a difference in student's lives.

I am passionate about sharing with others what I know, and in turn, enjoy learning from the experience of tutoring. I always edit a paper by going through a line-by-line account of what my suggestions mean on a conceptual level. I am direct, and I feel that by understanding what students' goals are within a subject or class, I can meet them on their level. Then, I strive to amplify those goals and to excite them to take pride in their achievements, pushing them to reach for even more. As a student at Colorado State University I felt that I was especially talented in English and journalism. I even studied Spanish, in the states and in Spain, solidifying my passion for language. I was hired to tutor and mentor college-level athletes while finishing my final year at CSU. I cherished the experience and am currently employed at a trade journal where I edit and write.
