More About This Tutor...

I am a bright, patient, and good teacher. I have been tutoring professionally and on a volunteer basis for many years. I am a business professional who has an MBA and an undergraduate degree in liberal arts. Both degrees are from top ranked institutions. I enjoy working with children!
I am patient and open to a variety of teaching and learning styles. I work by positively encouraging kids to want to learn and by finding what their "hot buttons" are to avoid instilling fear into them. When I teach kids, they actually want to learn and the results have been great!

I practice a collaborative style, one where I team with the student to achieve one or more goals. I push the student to seek the answers, helping them find the resources that are most useful. I enjoy all age levels, but trend toward middle, upper, and college levels.
I have been helping students for several years, primarily in the areas of math, accounting and other business topics. I also have experience with helping people use their computers more effectively, especially with regard to Microsoft products.

Teaching has been an extremely rewarding career. My primary goal as a teacher is to help each child to experience the great feeling of success. I believe that success, big or small, promotes self confidence, which creates further successes. My teaching style is supportive and kind. I challenge my students to the extent that I believe they are capable. I am patient and believe in positive reinforcement as a teaching tool.
I have been teaching dance to children and young adults for the last 10 years. However I pride myself on teaching my students more than the physical elements of dancing. The exercises, and "games" that I teach incorporate important memory and creative thinking skills. Beyond my dance major, I have a minor in psychology, and excellent grades in upper level w I have been teaching dance to children and young adults for the last 10 years.

A Little Bit About Me...

I really enjoy teaching. There's two things in particular I find especially amazing: The first is working with a student and hear them say, "Oh, that's what it's all about! I get it now." Seeing that sudden "click" when a difficult subject is suddenly clear is absolutely golden. The second is being able see the improvement they've made. In order to see this improvement, I work patiently and strive to always encourage my students through every step of the learning process. My teaching style tends to be energetic and enthusiastic; if the teacher isn't excited about the topic, the student won't be, either. Every child can reach their potential given the right environment.
As a student at the University of Colorado at Boulder, I've witnessed students struggling to understand concepts and began tutoring in order to help them. In addition to the courses I've taken for my environmental ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am an exceptional math/English tutor. I've earned a bachelor degree in Accounting from Santa Clara University. I have three years professional working experience for several multinational companies, which has helped me understand the importance of great communication and math skills in business. In Denver, I've taught math and English to high-risk youth. For the 2010-2011 school year, I had 100% of my students’ parents request me to be next year's tutor. I passed the state certified PLACE mathematics exam showing competency in math (i.e. pre-algebra, algebra I, II, calculus, trig, geometry, and other math operations and concepts). In Peru, I taught English for a year. I speak fluent Spanish and have taught many students with disabilities.
I love teaching kids. Kids absorb new things like a sponge and often need things taught in a variety of ways in order to fully comprehend a sub ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Although I have no formal teaching experience, we all learn and teach everyday in our lives. I am very intelligent and want to pass that on. I have done much reading when I was younger, exploring memory and mnemonics. I also took the Mega-Memory and speed reading courses by Kevin Trudeau. They are the ones that are in the Skymall catalog. I believe those really helped me in my studies, because I learned to approach learning the same way I approached sports. People would laugh in university when I would tell them that I never read anything for school late at night because I was tired and it wouldn't sink in properly, or that I would never eat a meal less than one hour before a test and I challenged them to try the same.
Learning starts with learing about oneself and how you best perform. It is very similar to sports, you start off learning the techniques and then you must lea ... read more

Teaching in a major metropolitan school district has allowed me to teach among a very diverse population. I use a variety of teaching strategies and assess my students' progress regularly.

More About This Tutor...

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.
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.

More About This Tutor...

I am a question-answer type of teacher. I like to demonstrate, have them do, answer questions, clear up ambiguities, and then test or at least check to insure learning and understanding. I have a style of quiet, but firm expectations. I have a great amount of patience. I will do best with high school and college age students, and on occasion, with more mature middle school students.
I have been an "instructor"-teacher for over 15 years. I teach math, economics, finance, business, and management for several colleges. I have been a Boy Scoutmaster and merit bade counselor and have worked with youth for over 15 years. I have always been given very high marks as an instructor with many comments on my positive energy and help for students. I have an applied mathematics minor so I would be able to teach algebra, geometry, trig, and introductory calculus.
