William M - Canon City, CO 81212 (27.4 mi) - Logic Tutor - $39.50/hr.
As a teacher with the Colorado Department of Corrections for 28 years, I had the opportunity to teach several subjects at several levels. Through my experience I had the opportunity to teach reading at a very fundamental level to adults. I also taught math and English to inmate students studying for their GED. I especially enjoyed the opportunity to teach English as a secondary language to non- English speaking students. I helped develop and teach an English grammar curriculum for a Corrrectional staff class. In 2005 I was honored by my peers to be given the Correctional Teacher of the year for a 5 state region. Some of my most rewarding times in life have been those when I help a student understand a concept that has bewildered him. I am usually able to find a unique way to make the student think about his learning. I try to teach to mastery. I don't believe efficient learning tak

Tessa S - Divide, CO 80814 (40.6 mi) - Logic Tutor - $54.00/hr.
I worked at Moorpark College as an ESL and Writing Tutor, helping students discover ways to identify and clarify ideas, refine a topic, outline ideas, and develop the skills needed to work independently. I have my BA from Scripps College in both English and History. I have significant experience tutoring within the humanities, but also German, math and the sciences. I started college as a Biology major, so I have a firm grounding in mathematics and the sciences, which I have bolstered to prepare for graduate school in Architecture. I was a Jumpstart (AmeriCorps) team leader, which involved implementing early childhood curriculum and promoting skill building for at-risk preschool children. I have helped children prepare for preschool through games and activities, and community college students brainstorm ideas for transfer essays. I am very organized, responsible and trustworthy. I have w

Michael H - Woodland Park, CO 80863 (48.5 mi) - Logic Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I tend towards a "supporting /coaching" style when teaching. Although there is no one best style for all situations, this style highlights the value of encouraging independent thinking, problem solving, and ownership for learning. It’s my goal not just to dispense information to students, but to coach them to turn the information into knowledge and eventually wisdom (21st Century learning strategy). I am proficient at discerning between ability (skill or talent) and motivation (willingness to learn) in order to better guide a learner towards success. Finally, I am a firm believer that all students can learn and strive to make a difference in their lives (see experience). One of my key strengths as a science and math teacher is that after receiving BS & MS chemistry degrees, I’ve spent over 20 years as an industrial scientist (Allied Signal Aerospace, Eastman Kodak, & Ford).
