GRE Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Elbert, CO

As a lifelong learner I understand the importance of an effective teacher. I have been teaching and assisting college level classes for 2 years as a Graduate Teaching Assistant. During this time I have taught 6 classes consisting of introductory microbiology, microbial genetics and general biology. This experience has allowed me to develop my own teaching style and led to a greater understanding of both sides of the teacher-student dynamic. I believe the best way to learn is to ask questions. The best thought process begins with asking the right questions. As a student, I find that knowing the right question was often as important as right answer. Taking this lesson into teaching, I find that getting the student to ask the right question makes all the difference in their understanding. My perspective of teaching is to help the student to find and better understand their own question and

Having been a teacher for the past seven years, I am very much aware of the challenges both students and educators face in finding effective teaching methods and resources. It depends on the subject and, more importantly, on the student's individual learning style. As a composition instructor at CSU, I emphasized clarity of expression, logical argumentation, and critical thinking. I considered it my mission to instill my students with the gravity of George Orwell's famous maxim: "If you cannot write well, you cannot think well, and if you cannot think well, others will do your thinking for you." Later, as an ESL teacher/trainer, I relied on the communicative approach to language acquisition, emphasizing realistic use of the target language and inductive learning rather than lecturing. Finally, I believe students learn best when they are interested in the topic and understand its rel

I have taught in public school (Science for 6th-12th grades), I have tutored in the subjects of reading, writing, math, and science, and I have taught as a substitute in various subjects. I also have a great deal of volunteer experience with children: mentoring an 8-year-old boy for Big Brothers/Big Sisters, working with disabled children in a therapeutic horseback riding program, teaching horseback riding lessons to kids, volunteering for a children's shelter, and teaching an after-school program to 3rd-6th graders about pet-related subjects.

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. 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 enjoy sharing knowledge of science with people of all ages. Many people find science to be intimidating, but I believe that once a person gets past the vocabulary barrier, the concepts of science are less overwhelming. One of my strengths is distilling scientific knowledge from the incomprehensible to concepts that anyone can understand. Most people struggle with science by trying to memorize a bunch of facts without understanding what they mean. I approach science in a concept-driven method, and the details tend to follow naturally. I have a PhD in Microbiology and dual majored in college to obtain a BS in both Biomedical Science and Health Chemistry. As a result, I have a wealth of knowledge in the areas of science and mathematics. I also have extensive experience writing and editing grant proposals and research papers and understand well the mechanics of the English language. I have

I love teaching and working with students of all sages. I believe that you are never too old or too young to learn new skills, both academically and in life. I am able to help your student achieve academic success through the application of basic concepts in economics, finance, history or philosophy to the real world and using real world examples. Great teachers make great learners, I have had several in my life and I strive to emulate them in all of my teaching experiences. As a graduate of a presigious liberal arts college, I was driven to a belief in life-long learning. As such I have been to graduate school twice, once in business and once in international relations, to gain an understanding of the world in which we live both in terms of economics and finance and through the study of foreign policy and the wider world.

I volunteer for HOBY (Hugh O'Brian Youth Leadership Seminar) every year. This program pushes facilitation, which is what I strive to do. I like to try to facilitate and push my students to ask questions and talk to me as a peer. I always try to give at least three compliments to every criticism because students are often too hard on themselves. For some reason, most of the students I have worked with have had an English teacher along the line who has made them feel "stupid." It is amazing what boosting confidence can do! I like to understand where students are coming from and what their specific needs are so I can address them in a way that best fits their learning style and experiences.

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 for St

I love developing and fostering a positive, trusting relationship with my student. By becoming acquainted and appreciating my student's motivations and learning style, I tailor my instruction to best suit my student's needs. I firmly believe that a teacher must be both flexible and intuitive. Whether I am teaching through discovery or through direct instruction, I continually assess and respond to my student's level of understanding in learning the new material. It is through this dynamic learning environment that I am able to make math both accessible and rewarding. I thrive on the "Ah ha!" moments that build my student's confidence. Extremely driven to achieve academically, I graduated magna cum laude with a BS in Applied Mathematics from the University of Colorado at Boulder.

I began my career as an educator and I professionally taught in Colorado, Ohio, Texas and California. When working on my Ph.D in Educational Research at UCLA, I worked as a master teacher where I trained mathematics and science teachers in the Teacher Education program at UCLA. As an IBM employee, I trained other employees and worked as an instructor and curriculum and course designer. I also created educational conferences which consisted of multiple classes and presenters from around the world. As a Senior Manager at IBM, I provided training for managers. Throughout my career, I voluntarily tutored children and adults in multiple subject areas - mathematics, English, computer science, business acumen, and GED Preparation.
