More About This Tutor...

I am a fun, outgoing person who loves to learn. I am patient and willing to spend the necessary time to help students become academically successful. I believe all people have the potential to learn new things and expand their knowledge. I want to help others realize their learning abilities by teaching them new study methods! I believe learning should be fun. If it’s not fun and enjoyable, then it is hard to be motivated to focus on education. Each person has their own unique way of studying and making learning easier. I have several ways that I have found that helps me learn. Because of this, I can help others learn more successful study methods.

More About This Tutor...

As a seeker of truth with an acute interest in human nature, cognition and development, I am naturally drawn to education of today’s children to help construct the foundation for a sustainable tomorrow. I have earned two bachelor degrees, a BA in Philosophy and BA in Anthropology, which has enabled me to gain insight in the acquisition and development of thought, language and literacy. During the last nine years in the classroom I have learned and used practical teaching strategies and have taught students developmental strategies in literacy, math, science, and philosophy. A continuing quest for comprehension outside of the classroom has led me to help children in self understanding and yoga.
I am drawn to education by the enjoyment of children and I am often requested as a substitute teacher because of my calm demeanor, patience and kindness with all children. Children and adult ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

When I was attending Regis University, I started majoring in English and minoring in Education. I student taught and tutored two days out of the week for four hours for two and a half consecutive semesters. I absolutely enjoyed working with the students, it was the teachers that had me hang up my hat in that field. I would hear the teachers complain and witness them not helping the students with their %110. This was very disheartening. It made me think that teaching would become a job for me, and not a satisfaction of fulfilling students own dreams. I know realize that it is the attitude and respect for the students that help them learn, not making them do meaningless work.
I have recently graduated from Regis University. At Regis,along with institutional lessons, they taught me life lessons as well. I honorably graduated in May on 2009 with a BA in English and a minor in ... read more

Read More About Gina J...

I enjoy teaching children of all ages, particularly on a one-to-one basis. In addition, I learn from the children. I believe a child learns best through individual attention and the opportunity to have those "aha" moments. People of all ages can meet and exceed their potential. My experience with tutoring children is that we have made a difference in each other's lives.
As one who received a Master's Degree in Clinical Psychology, I've always loved education. With corporate background I have excellent grammatical and communication skills. In the corporations in which I worked, I wrote training manuals and trained and counseled managers and supervisors. During the past 8 years I have tutored students in math, psychology, spatial orientation, writing and reading. I also work with the Feurstein MLE program.

A Little Bit About Me...

Scaffolding and positive reinforcement describes my teaching style; combined with a healthy dose of humor and individual, associative modeling. Learning should be fun and challenging. Busy work doesn't have to take such a negative connotation.
My experience is as broad as it is varied. When I taught at Sylvan, I taught every course they needed me to. When I taught professionally, I taught teams of scientists and then instructional designers. I'm comfortable with all ages and backgrounds.
