I have 2+ years tutoring experience in all junior high and high school subjects, as well as 1 year teaching experience in literature. I am very interested in learning as well as teaching. I believe that the best way for students to learn is to discover it themselves, with some guidance from a knowledgeable teacher (me!).
Socratic.

More About This Tutor...

I taught middle school and high school Language and Literature for two years at a private school. During that time I also tutored in the subjects of history, math, and science. I am currently working on my Masters degree in Education and have had refresher courses in the areas of study outside of my initial degree. I love working with students and have taken courses specifically in test prep.
I am an active teacher. I want students to understand the subject in the context of their own lives as opposed to just learning definitions. If they can realate the information to an actual happening, they are more likely to remember. In terms of test preparation, aside from learning the information it is important to work on test-taking skills (relaxation, focus, etc.). Being prepared for such large tests is more than just knowing, it is recalling under pressure. I work with all of th ... read more

I am a retired statistician, with degrees in physics, aeronautical engineering and business. The following is a summary of my tutoring experience: As a student at M.I.T., I designed and taught a 6-week class on "Airplanes and Space Flight" to area high school students at "M.I.T. High School." When my sons were in middle school, I designed and taught a 6-session course on Statistics to 10 students. I provided group tutoring in pre-algebra and algebra to students at a private school in Virginia. I tutored math and physics at The Tutor Center in Loveland, the Larimer County Workforce Center, and the Thompson School District. I will be teaching an enrichment course on statistical literacy to senior citizens in Larimer County.
I am particularly adept at explaining mathematical concepts and techniques to students. I find a way to build on what the student already knows. I fin ... read more

Effective, long-term educational results occur best in a teaching environment that includes energy, enjoyment, and enthusiasm (i.e., the joy of learning!). With that motivation, I believe that building a strong foundation in every subject area is the key to students' learning and retention. Teaching the "Hows" and "Whys"---not just the "Whats" (the answers)--is imperative as is critical thinking and organizational development! Also, relevant, meaningful applications of learned material are essential and encouraged. Being a results-oriented, caring tutor and mentor is always my ultimate goal---with smiles all around! Teaching competence while developing confidence is the key to effective learning!

As each student is unique, my teaching style is eclectic and tailored to the individual student as to how they best learn. Having a degree in Psychology gives me the unique opportunity to understand the individual, present them with techniques that promote better study habits, and increase their retention. I have dealt with situations of dyslexia, test anxiety, panic attacks, and challenging home/lifestyle situations, and have met with those challenges with success. As part of my continuing education I have taken a graduate class in Meta Cognition which is all about learning, learning styles, and how to create the best environments.

My teaching style is trying to relate to each person and make everything easier for them. Dealing with A.D.D my entire life, I've learned how to break apart the entire problem(or essay) into better and more clear parts. A good educator needs to demand accountability from it's students. I believe that a student needs to do a little work every day, instead of a lot in one day. I stress that every student keeps a notebook that highlights main ideas in every subject. I have been through it, so I know what is important long-term.
I'm a 27 year old that accepted a part-time internship in Fort Collins, Colorado. Also, I'm in the process of applying for PHD programs (starting in 2011) in hopes of becoming a professor in the long-run.

I have experience as both a teacher and a tutor. I graduated from the University of Illinois with a degree in English/Secondary Education. Throughout my years in college I learned theories of education, observed in classrooms and student taught at both the middle school and high school level. After graduating college in 2003, I taught 9th grade English for 2 years in a charter school in Houston, TX. After I relocated to Chicago, IL, I entered the corporate sector; however, I continued to volunteer as a tutor for 2 years. Given my past experiences, I have had the opportunity to work with students at many different levels and have tutored in various subject areas.
I have always been a believer in giving students a foundation from which to learn and grow. I enjoy teaching students basic skills that can be applied to many different subject areas. For example, I think things like t ... read more

As the graduate of a difficult field of science, I spent a great deal of time studying and developing better methods for studying. I have become very knowledgeable in science and applied science through my degree field. I have also spent much time reading and writing scientific articles, which has made me proficient in English, general literacy, and writing. Throughout my college career, I have been tutoring and leading study sessions in science.
I think that learning is subjective. Every person will have the opportunity to learn if they have an instructor that can meet their needs. I work well with children, young adults, and adults. I am patient and attentive. I believe that asking questions is the best way to find and address gaps in understanding and facilitate teaching the appropriate material.

A Little Bit About Me...

I started teaching while in college; I worked as a Teaching Assistant when school was in session (teaching college students) and as a camp counselor at a French immersion camp in the summers. This allowed me to work with students ages 8-22 and to develop different teaching styles for different ages. I am currently writing my PhD thesis; although the subject is Francophone, I'm writing in English and feel that I have strong writing skills and the ability to teach them. I've taught English to non-native speakers in France as an "English assistant" as well as in the US as an ESL tutor. I recently started tutoring in a local school and am working with students on a variety of subjects, from GED to English.
I have a communicative and interactive approach to teaching. I believe that a child learns best when actively involved in the process of learning and discovery. I am also a very pati ... read more

The more time I spend with kids, the more I realize how many different ways they learn. Kids have taught me a great deal about looking at things from a different point of view and teaching to a variety of levels, abilities, and learning styles. I KNOW each child has the ability to learn. Unfortunately, I also know each child has the ability to feel failure and confusion. My greatest pleasure is seeing students grasp a concept that was previously very foreign. A kid who breaks a smile while struggling to learn a challenging idea means success to me. I aspire to make students feel comfortable, supported, accepted, and encouraged through my patience, understanding, rethinking, and openness. Ideally, my students will find their own motivation, strength and determination to find future success in educational endeavors. I know I am making a difference in each life I touch and I feel lucky to h ... read more
