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.

A Little Bit About Me...

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

Read More About Pierre D...

In 1975 I had been teaching tennis for the City of Boulder Parks and Recreation Department for a year and elected to attend a teaching clinic at Coto de Caza California conducted by the Vic Braden Tennis College. Since then I worked for the City of Boulder as a tennis instructor for 7 more years and I coached tennis to individual tennis players, mostly promising junior players, for an additional 4 years. After a short period of retirement from tennis, I took a job with the Bureau of Prisons in Englewood, Colorado, as a tutor in their Education Department. In that capacity I tutored adult inmates to achieve their 8th grade equivalency and I convinced several to go beyond that level to reach their GED. Working with inmates was a very rewarding experience. I also taught for Flatirons Country Club for a season in 1993, and for Devil's Thumb Tennis Club the following year.
