I have assembled a wide variety of experiences during my years of work and education. I have worked as a journalist, advertising copy writer and designer; and teacher of adult learners in the areas of fine art, art history, and garden design. For 16 years, I owned a operated a successful garden design business and, more recently, taught in a local elementary school for six years as a fifth grade teacher, specializing in reading and, especially, writing. I occasionally write for garden publications and continue to create artworks and gardens.
My goal as a teacher is to "fit" the material that needs to be learned into each student's character and mindset. Everyone excels at something -- it is my job to find out what that is and how to make that work so that new material can be incorporated. I work to help students achieve their potential and strive to help them feel confident th ... read more

I am focused on helping young students discover the joy of learning. I have taught approximately 500 + students over the years. My passion is teaching and educating. My teaching style reflects my belief that young students learn best by doing. Making connections are crucial. Helping students make those connections and guiding them to discovery is more than just learning a subject, it is learning how to learn. I take into account individual learning styles to help students cement and utilize what they have learned. I strive to help students master the material; I strive to help students develop learning strategies that will carry them throughout their school career and hopefully throughout life as well.
I have a Master’s Degree in Education with an emphasis on Integrating Teaching through the Arts, from Lesley University. My passion is working with children of all ages. I have 18 ... read more

I am a holistic teacher who likes for students to experience the subject. For example I would have student immerse themselves into the subject of history and complete a project and present it to the other students. It was really successful and had students waiting all year.

After graduation I applied and got a teaching job and I taught at Skyview Middle School in District 49 for 4 years teaching Ancient Civilizations. Before that I was a substitute in District 8, 2, 3, 60, 48 all southern Colorado school districts.

A Little Bit About Me...

I am very adaptive. I accept challenges warmly. I love working with children; I teach at my church at the elementary level weekly. I also enjoy working with adults in a non-threatening way. I am a patient person and know that learning can be fun if presenting correctly.
I have recently retired from the U.S. Army as a medic. During my service, I was frequently responsible for both formal and informal teaching and training. I learned to easily adapt to various learning styles, learning barriers, and researching subjects. While still in the service, I utilized my lunch breaks and evenings to further my education and emerged with my AA and completed Nurse Assistant training while still serving and my BS only one year later; two months after retiring. Currently, I am working on my MS in Health Promotion with a certificate in Disaster in Public Health. I am capable of producing ... read more

My background is in International Montessori Education , as well as psychology. I taught, tutored and trained teachers for 20+ years and founded a successful private school, though tutoring is my favorite part of teaching. I love learning and applying new formats, as well as using the many skills I have developed over time. My experience in teaching reading is extensive, probably my greatest strength, and I also tutored all ages and in the areas of writing, study skills,critical thinking,and perceptual skills.
The first thing I do is create a personal connection with a child and get to know their individual needs, strengths and learning style. Once that rapport is built the child can relax and focus, knowing they are supported and valued. Bringing energy, a love of learning and a sense of fun, as well as healthy expectations, fuels a great learning environment. I also have high sta ... read more

As long as I can remember, I have loved learning and working with children. Although, I began my higher education pursuits by obtaining a bachelor's degree in Communication, I quickly realized what I truly wanted to do was teach. So, I returned to school and obtained my teaching license in elementary education. I have been working with children in public and private schools and daycare settings ever since. I have primarily worked with children in preschool-5th grade, and am very comfortable with these age groups. I particularly enjoy teaching reading, writing, social studies, mathematics and the arts.
I love teaching and working with children. This is my passion, and I firmly believe all children can and will learn, given the appropriate instuction and resources to succeed. I am patient, easygoing, and like to make learning as fun as possible. I am available to work with your ... read more

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
