Make the infuriating accessible.

I try to bring information, facts and ideas into a unified whole, so that rather than being a matter of simple memorization, subjects can be internalized, understood and learned. This makes the subjects easier and more accessible both in the short and long run. Tutoring writing, I focus on format and content, turning the agonizing activity of writing a paper into an easy and quick one.
I've done some tutoring both officially and unofficially during the years, editing and proofreading friends' papers (for many of whom English was not a first language), as well as tutoring Russian. My educational experience, however, is vast. I completed the IB program in high school (with SL French, Math Studies and Biology and HL English, History and Psychology), majored in Psychology, History and Russian Studies at CU, and obtained a double Master's in Russian, Central and East European Studies ... read more

Driven, hard-working, responsible since 1993.

I believe in success. There is no guarantee someone will learn on the first try. It's all about enjoying the learning experience and positive reinforcement. I also believe in humor and think that it can help a lot in peoples difficult situations.
I have helped tutor AVID high school students when I was a senior at Cherry Creek High School. I enjoy helping the kids learn and believe that being a tutor would pay it forward since I had so much help from tutors. I always helped my friends out because I was in higher level classes than them some of the times. I also worked with tutors and know how much of a difference they can make. I'm currently studying at CSU and still work with friends on homework if they need help.

Socratic.
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!).

My comments on tutoring Government : Almost all of my college electives were taken in Government and Politics, I was one class short of receiving a minor, and I received a grade of A/A- in all Political Science courses. I took the AP Government and Politics class in high school and received a 5 on the test, and in college I have taken Comparative Politics, State Government, American Congress, and Political Psychology.

I have succeeded as a Pre-Med student and psychology major while playing for the University of Colorado D1 women’s volleyball team and thus developed excellent study skills. I have taken and done well on the MCAT and I am applying to medical school in the summer of 2013. I have spent time tutoring my younger brother and many of my teammates and friends in biology, general chemistry, writing/editing, and all psychology fields.

Tutor with 13 years experience

I'm an environmental engineer who has been tutoring for the last 13 years. I enjoy working with children and excell at working with children who might be struggling with comprehension or who have learning disabilities. I have experience working with children who are ESL or ELL. I have worked with elementary, secondary and high school students.
Make learning fun and everyone wins! Not all children absorb material the same way. I try to explore different ways of presenting material and working through concepts to relate the material to something that can be understood.

More About This Tutor...

I love working with kids and strive to identify, support and encourage each individual's gifts, strengths, and abilities, while also assisting them with his or her areas of challenge. I am patient, respectful and believe that children and youth respond best to positive reinforcement. My goal is to help your child experience academic success and achieve his or her own potential.
I have been through a teaching credential program for elementary education and chose not to teach in a classroom environment because I prefer one-on-one and small group interaction. I've also earned a bachelor's degree in Liberal Arts because I personally enjoy and value a broad education. My master's degree in counseling reflects my concern for people, my ability to listen and respond to individual needs. I've also been a Teacher's Aide at the Elementary school level and a Substitute teacher at the Ele ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I am new to tutoring, but not to teaching. In college, whether I was studying differential equations or the intricacies of cellular processes, I took the time to support my classmates and explain difficult concepts. When I was called to service, I spent four years in the Air Force, lecturing, mentoring, and teaching my fellow servicemembers, breaking down highly technical information and helping them succeed. While I find Math and Science fields fascinating, I love the English language and I'm looking forward to helping students improve their writing skills as well.
My goal is to help my students truly understand the material and how it connects to both other fields of study and their own life. This comprehensive approach reduces test-taking anxiety and improves confidence, giving the student the tools he or she needs to move forward in their education. I tend to ask the stude ... read more

For the last 3 years I have been working as a special education teacher at a non-proft treatment facility. I enjoy working with children. I conduct myself in a very positive manner and do a very good job in navigating between teaching material to the class and supportively intervening with behavior challenges and conducting solid classroom management. On two different occasions in the first class, I addressed a concern, did not power struggle and both situations ended up positively for the youth and for the rest of the class.
I utilize several different teaching strategies and attempt to pull strengths from the youth and work with positives. I give examples and direct youth in the direction of the correct answers. I utilize reading and instructing out loud to the class, writing on the board for further and clearer instructions and information, using real life ideas and situations ... read more

I possess both a B.S. degree in zoology/ biology and a M.S. degree in environmental health. I have a secondary science professional teaching license. I am adept at teaching science and math topics and I have had successful teaching experiences within all academic areas. One of my greatest strengths as a teacher is my ability to discern whether or not a student has understood a concept. I recognize that students learn through different methods and I know how to present complex information in a variety of ways so that a student grasps the topic. In some ways, tutoring is teaching at its purest because the teacher and the student can be focused on the material in such a way as to maximize the student’s potential and success. I have come to recognize that being a teacher is both my vocation and my avocation through which I contribute to society.

A Little Bit About Me...

My goal when teaching is to see each student not only arrive at a point of understanding, but to witness a sense of joy and confidence in the process, as the sense of "I can do it!" becomes the motivation for trying harder and gaining results. I like to encourage students with positive affirmation, but I am also straight-forward about the importance of hard work, correct results, and honest effort. I believe that students need to come up with their own answers through gentle coaching and learn that they are capable of studying independently. My job as a tutor would be to help each student believe in his/her capability to succeed by encouraging, coaching, and holding a high standard.
I studied both music and Spanish at Colorado State University, and during my time as a student, I worked as a piano teacher in my own home. I enjoyed interacting one-on-one with each student, as the ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My role as a teacher is always multi-faceted. I am patient, compassionate, and consistent. I strive to inspire life-long-learning and find what motivates each of my students. My students gain confidence as they achieve small goals and then reach for new and just a little more challenging goals. Self-esteem increases with each accomplishment--especially the tasks that seemed just out of reach. It is important to me to take into account each student's learning styles, interests, and strengths when planning the activities and skills toward learning goals. My students enjoy collaborating in their learning plan whenever they can.
I love teaching and have experience working with elementary students of all ages and abilities. Compassion is one of the most important traits of a teacher and helps me draw out even reluctant learners. Motivation is one of the most important traits for ... read more

More About This Tutor...

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.
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.
