My comments on tutoring Painting : Watercolor is my favorite.

I taught a collegiate level graphic design course to intermediate and advanced students at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee. Typography, digital design, and consistency within design were emphasized. Previously I taught a graduate level course in surgical orientation and conducted independent studies with medical illustration students.

More About This Tutor...

I am a graduate of both the University of Colorado and Adams State College. I hold a Master's degree in Secondary Education as well as a Initial Teacher's license. I have experience as a volunteer tutor in social studies and math, a paid tutor in reading, a student teacher, and as a substitute for the last year and a half. I also have experience as a mentor to young people through the YMCA.
My teaching style revolves around the specific learning needs of students because each person not only learns differently but has specific strengths and weakness. As teachers it is our job to meet the needs of all learners. I do not believe in presently material in one way, or one way all the time.

My formal teaching experience consists of weekly classes and workshops at Artful Journey, and over three years at ArtWorks Fine Art Studio. While there I taught traditional drawing and painting with a focus on teaching students to draw realistically. I guided all ages through color theory, design, drawing, painting, and printmaking. I also helped manage our studios, set up new curriculum for our summer workshops and developed and created working examples. I also held a teaching assistantship at Cranbrook, which consisted of mentoring my fellow graduate students, managing our facilities, and assisting our artists in residence.
My overall aim in dealing with students at every level is to construct an atmosphere of mutual respect where I may equip each student with a strong foundation and provide them with the confidence and desire to acquire the skills, independence, and motivatio ... read more

I enjoy teaching and learning from students. I feel everyone has something to share and assist with understanding different beliefs, cultures and ideas. I strive to teach to all modalities. I look at and present different ideas that might make sense. When a student understands the whys they can understand and look at the how to aspect.Teaching should be student driven allowing them to take in information and process. Then as a teacher I can reinforce and guide then to success.I believe that everyone can learn at their level of knowledge. I never give up on any student.
I became a para and went on to get my teaching degrees.Initially I received a BS in Human Services(This degree dealt with ethics, social work, counseling, and confidential issues) I felt these were issues as a teacher that would be beneficial.

I believe teaching should be child friendly and as interactive as possible. When learning is fun, even difficult concepts become easy. My goal is to motivate children to succeed and teach them that they can do anything if they put forth their best effort. I strive to create an environment where students can focus feel safe to take risks. With positive reinforcement I hope to encourage and motivate students as well as instill confidence in them.

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is patient and caring, while being consistent with expectations. I believe the role of a teacher is to facilitate learning. Differentiating for students according to their individual needs and learning styles is at the forefront of my teaching. I believe in combining academic support with manipulatives and physical exercises, i.e. Brain Gym activities. Overall, I utilize as many strategies as possible to determine the most successful support for individual students. My goal as a teacher is to encourage students to succeed at their individual potential and to instill genuine a love of learning in my students.
After earning my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology from the University of Colorado at Boulder, I determined that I wanted to pursue a teaching career. I enrolled in the Master’s in Elementary Education program at the University of Phoenix. My work in elementary ... read more

More About This Tutor...

I have been tutoring children while in college and since. I tutored children as part of the No Child Left Behind Act in the fields of reading, English, math, history, and science. Since graduating college, as performing as a case manager in mental health and for homeless families, I have tutored children in the same fields. I have also tutored college level students in the fields of statistics, writing, and psychology.
My teaching style is to analyze the information that is lacking with the students in question and then decide which form learning is appropriate based on the child's desires (i.e. didactic or experiential).

A Little Bit About Me...

I do best working one on one with students or in very small groups. I like to get to know my students. This helps me determine how they learn and how I can make their experience as useful as possible. Also, its more fun to do work with someone that you respect and understand.
It wasn’t until my boys started school and I spent time in their classrooms that I realized I had a passion and an aptitude for working with young students. I was hired by the Boulder Valley School District in 2007 as a para and soon after was working one on one with special needs students in kindergarten. This realization prompted me to re-enter the college scene as a graduate student, which I finished this December.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am a true supporter of standards based education. It clarifies what the students need to know and be able to do. It makes the teacher's job easier when designing lesson plans, and it affords families and communities the kind of accountability they need to monitor their students progress. Consequently, I begin each unit with the end in mind. I then develop a set of benchmarks that will lead the students toward that objective. Each day, my students know what they must accomplish in order to move on. As their guide, I provide the materials and demonstrate their use. From that point, I simply keep them focused on their projects and encourage them to persist, moving steadily toward mastery of the material.

A Little Bit About Me...

My degree in English served me well in my two periods of teaching in South Korea and Chile. In the former, I taught young children through high school age English in private companies in and around the greater Seoul area. In Chile, I mostly taught adults at the corporate executive level, but also did some tutoring of younger children. In my position as 1 to 1 facilitator currently, I work on a wide plethora of topics with my student, such as math, geography, reading, writing and computer skills. I have also worked at Laradon Hall, an alternative school for dual-diagnosis and highly behavioral children, for the better part of two years.
I have learned patience and understanding in my trips abroad as well as my time spent with the developmentally disabled here in Colorado. My technique mostly stems from understanding how the student learns and then taking the time to structure less ... read more

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.

During my undergraduate career, I was privileged to enroll into the Physiology department in the College of Medicine at the University of Arizona. The University of Arizona is one of 10 schools throughout the country that offer the physiology major to undergraduates. My BS degree is unique, and allowed me to continue to purse a part of medicine I have a strong passion for. I was able to complete a course in Muscle Biology, where we discussed everything from current muscle research to advancements in muscle technology. Along with my bachelor's degree, I received my personal training certification just last year. With this certification I have been able to put into practice what I have learned.

I am comfortable of working with people of all ages, but I especially enjoy teaching children. I am very interested in education; I believe it is one of the most powerful yet underestimated tools we can employ. My studies provided me with a solid background of many different cultures and traditions, which can be incredibly valuable in an educational setting, as education requires a variety of communication skills to adapt to different learning styles. I want to help youth enjoy learning, and encourage them to succeed and be proud of themselves.

I remember growing up knowing that I learned differently than others as I was a very visual learner. I understand that all children have their own way of learning and getting one-on-one help from someone who can teach in that way will really help to excel their knowledge in that subject. My philosophy is to make learning fun so the child is excited to meet with me, providing learning games, puzzles and prizes which has been very successful for me in the past. I love teaching children and think they could all meet their potential, but may just need that one person to give them confidence to do so. I look forward to meeting and teaching new children as they are our future.
