My comments on tutoring Sociology : I have a BA Degree in Sociology with an education concentration. I provide an understanding of sociology concepts and practices.

Denver Summer Scholars - Lead computer tutor - Taught 3 classes a day with 15 students in each class. I used computer software to tutor students in math and language arts. My students were ESL at Risk students. Tree of Knowledge - I tutored 15 students during the 2011 to 2012 school year in Language Arts and Math. My students increase their pre tutoring scores by a minimum of 25%. My students included at risk and special ed students in first to fifth grade. This was one on one tutoring. I was able to get to know each student and design the teaching method and material to suit each student's need. I designed separate programs for each student. Through my attention and caring attitude towards all of my students I was able to establish excellent rapport and a true desire to learn. I had one third grade student who was having significant difficulties with multiplication. I tau ... read more

I retired after 35 years of teaching, and I am currently substitute teaching. Through the years I have tutored privately students ranging from kindergarten to high school. I also teach piano. I enjoy substituting because it keeps me current with instructional methods being used in schools. I also take continuing education classes to maintain my Colorado teacher certificate.

My style of teaching includes visual explanation (white board or chalk board), oral discussion, and hands-on manipulation when ever possible. I try to use as many teaching styles as possible as not all students learn via the same means. My style is also fexible based on the student I am instructing (age or handicaps). I believe the best way to teach science is to make it a fun and inquisitive experience.
I hold a BS and MS in Biology. I started to tutor college student while an undergraduate at Mesa State College.I was awarded the GK-12 Fellowship for two years while at the University of Northern Colorado. This fellowship placed me in k-12 classrooms to aid in teaching sciene. During that time I taught kindergarten, second grade, 8th grade, and 9th - 12th grades.Later I was awarded the GAANN Fellowship and continued to teach colleged level Biology. I have experience in classroom se ... read more

As a University of Colorado graduate, I gained experience writing argumentative essays objectively about different cultures of the world. Writing these essays brought on my desire to travel around the world, learning first hand how other cultures live and work in their society. Teaching English abroad became the way to feed my curiosity. I have had numerous experiences teaching English locally and abroad. In the past three years I have taught in Japan, Korea, and Colorado to students ranging from different ages and abilities. Part of my job was to gauge which level was appropriate for the students to start in the English program as well as to make sure they were following the proper study rhythm to achieve their language goals.
Teaching has become a major part of my life. I have taught mostly university students and adults but like teaching children as well. I believe that teach ... read more

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 that to help the student.
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 spe ... read more

Each time I have taught a different age-level I have sought to accommodate myself to the learning style of that particular level, whether psychokinetic for kindergarten and preschool, audio-visual for lower elementary, or verbal-phonemic for upper-level students and adults. It was in the teaching of adults that I encountered my most challenging situations, and even today the pedagogy is not nearly as simple as would appear at face-value. Reference to Ken Pike's tomes on the fundamentals of tagmemics, James Stanfield's affective pointers for students of various emotional statuses, and even the philosophy of Noam Chomsky on English deep structure, were all consulted early and often and at one time or another throughout my career.
I have been involved every year since 1975 in the work of an educator, mostly for pay, but occasionally as a volunteer, either community- or faith-based, in ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Having earned a master's in psychology, I have extensive knowledge in this area. I have worked on many papers and reports throughout my college years, so I have strong proofreading and grammar skills. I tutored in my high school in many different subject areas and currently help some of my clients with their schoolwork.
I enjoy working with youth to help them achieve success in many aspects of their lives. The one-on-one attention may be all a child needs to move forward when he/she is struggling in the classroom. I am a patient, detailed, and organized person. I have a great work ethic and strive to show youth that success can be achieved in many different forms. Finding the right motivator and "language" can make all of the difference in a confusing subject.

I currently offer a Bachelor of Science in Biology and for the last three years I have been working as a Researcher at the University of Colorado Health and Science Center. This experience has help enhance my knowledge of biology and biological processes.
I leave teaching and working with children to explore science. I think that I can help all children to bring science into prospective and understand it in their own way. I want to help students find a love for science or at least feel comfortable with it.

More About This Tutor...

In the past,I've taught ESL, Health-care Occupations & Opportunities,both MRI/CT Applications. I also worked for AOL as an on-line teacher/tutor/mentor in their Academic Assistance Center.I hold two cleared teaching credentials one for Vocational Ed.and the other for Adult Ed. These qualify me to teach GED,ESL and any health-care related class. Currently,I'm working as a substitute teacher in Weld County, a grandparent mentor in Larimer County, as well as a part-time instructor at ELTC teaching courses in Medical Terminology and Phlebotomy.
I like the students to learn how to learn. While I will guide them, test them and occasionally point them toward appropriate reference materials, I do not do the work for them....that's their job and the only way they will develop the appropriate learning skills, self-confidence and a thirst for knowledge.
