ACT Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Golden, CO

I have taught for over 30 years in a variety of institutions, but mostly public schools. I am conversant in Spanish and have a broad range of interests and fields of knowledge, including English literature, Math, History, Science, current events and Politics. I have taught grades 3-12, and have experiences teaching all income levels and socio-economic backgrounds. I am a laid back type of instructor and use my experience and intuition to create unique learning environments for each student. I like students to express themselves in their studies, and I encourage each student to express their natural gifts. I have a creative mind which allows me to relate to many types of students and many subjects and to use student's natural interests as a starting point for learning new material.

I engage with a new student for a relationship. I inquire regarding their expectations, concerns, fears, and hopes for tutoring. I then explain my tutoring philosophy. Then, I ask for a diagnosis of how well they are performing the course material subject, and how I can help them best in the first session. I have tutored university, college, and high school students for 15 years with great success.

I have always loved learning. Reading and writing have been two of my primary hobbies since childhood. Still, when I was in elementary and high school, there were times when I felt that the educational system was lacking. I am not alone in this experience, and I have observed countless students flourish with a level of personal and individual care that is unavailable in a standard classroom environment. As a result of my ardor for both teaching and learning, while earning a master of divinity with an emphasis in counseling, I have spent my evenings tutoring professionally. I have earned certifications in math, English grammar, reading and composition, ACT and SAT test preparation, and organizational study skills. I have had the privilege of working with a large variety of students. I have helped young children learn how to read for the first time, and mentored innumerable high

I have never taught a subject, physics, mathematics or philosophy, at a level that was beyond the abilities of any student who really wanted to master the material, and I don't think I'd be interested at teaching at that level. Many students are not able to master these subjects in school, but quite often it is not due to a lack of desire on their part, but instead a lack of sufficient preparation due most often to poor prior instruction. I have always been successful in helping students I tutor in overcoming their deficiencies in this area, regardless of the subject. I wanted very much to teach at the Liberal Arts College level but was unable to secure a full-time, permanent position. In pursuit of this goal, I have completed an MS in Physics, all the coursework necessary for a MS in Mathematics, an MA in Philosophy, and I am working to complete my PhD in philosophy.

My philosophy of tutoring is rather simple - every individual has unique needs that should be met by a tutor in the most patient, sensitive, and FUN way. I love teaching and working with children to meet their academic goals - focusing not only on content, but also work ethic, organization and study skills, and time management. Everyone can meet their potential - I truly believe that where there is a will, there is a way. I strive to make a difference in all of my students' lives. A recent graduate of Brown University, I am well accustomed to pursuing education excellence. In my time at Brown, I earned a 3.96 overall GPA and a 4.0 GPA in my area of study. My diverse coursework allowed me to learn material in many subject areas, as well as develop strong study and organizational skills, time management ability, and exceptional work ethic. My researching skills were employed on a daily ba

I understand that all children have different abilities, and it is my goal to try to help children reach their full potential by really bringing out those abilities, as well as working on areas that might be weakest. Every individual has a unique learning style, and it is the job of the teacher or tutor to adjust and adapt their methods (whether it be focusing on a specific style or using a variety of teaching styles) to help each individual do the best that they can. I have experience teaching elementary Spanish, and two years experience tutoring high school and immigrant students. Additionally, I was a T.A. in college for Social Work classes. I attended a liberal arts college and had three majors, so I have experience with a variety of subjects. I have strong reading comprehension and grammatical skills, due to both English classes in high school and college. Prior to and during c

My teaching style revolves around the specific learning needs of students because each person not only learns differently but has specific strengths and weakness. As teachers it is our job to meet the needs of all learners. I do not believe in presently material in one way, or one way all the time. I am a graduate of both the University of Colorado and Adams State College. I hold a Master's degree in Secondary Education as well as a Initial Teacher's license. I have experience as a volunteer tutor in social studies and math, a paid tutor in reading, a student teacher, and as a substitute for the last year and a half. I also have experience as a mentor to young people through the YMCA.

I enjoy working with students and have a high level of patience with each grade level. I am usually pretty laid-back and allow students leeway to have a bit of fun while they learn. I believe that without a little fun in their daily routines, students grow stagnant and bored easily. I enjoy feeling that I make a difference in student's lives. I have a substitute teaching license from the state of Colorado. I have been subbing for Denver Public Schools and Cherry Creek School District for over three years. I have worked with ages ranging from Kindergarten to 8th grade.

I recently graduated summa cum laude from Boston University with my B.A. and M.A. in European Cultural Studies and Journalism. The core of my curriculum as a Trustee Scholar in the University Professors Program was three consecutive programs in Europe. In Paris, I worked as the American Correspondent for a prominent French magazine. There, I demonstrated my success as an “ambassador” at frequent press conferences. Because of my meticulous editing skills, readiness to collaborate, and bounty of creative ideas, the editor also invited me to assist him with his recent book, Bijoux, which was showcased at the Musée des Arts décoratifs. While studying modern British literature and history at Oxford, I took the initiative to devise a supplemental program of solo excursions to UNESCO World Heritage Sites in preparation for my thesis, “Cultural Landscapes of the Literary Imagination: Parisi

When I think about my strengths as a tutor, two things come to mind. First, I am a person who really appreciates a good teacher. My best teachers were able to convince me of my own ability to solve difficult problems by providing a good challenge and also with lots of patience. So at the heart of my tutoring strategy is patience. Second, I approach problem solving with concrete strategies. In tutoring, I am trying to teach problem solving strategies so that students can answer questions on their own. I have worked as a college and high school level math and science tutor for three years, two years at a community college in San Diego and one year here in Denver helping high school students with math and science and test prep needs. Though I ended up getting my degree in a humanities based discipline, I studied a lot of math and science in college, focusing particularly on chemistry. I am
