English ESOL Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Loveland, CO

I am a very fun and practical language teacher. From the beginning, I will help you become confident in your language skills and not be afraid to fail. Putting yourself out there when you are traveling or simply in the classroom is key to progressing with a language. I will use movies, music, videos, current events, and pop culture to create an interest in a new culture and country that will help you learn the language that much faster. As well as being a certified TESOL instructor, I graduated from Smith College with a bachelors degree in Portuguese and Brazilian Studies and Latin American Studies. My studies focused on language learning, reading, writing, and cultural history and studies in Spanish and Portuguese. I studied abroad in Lisbon, Portugal for one semester and was in intern for a summer in a sustainable village in the jungle of Panama. Before college, I did my gap year in Be

I believe that learning is a very individual process and that teaching should be tailored to suit each learner's needs. My approach to tutoring has always been to relieve the anxiety that writing causes by breaking down the process into more concrete steps. Removing that anxiety allows students to focus on the communication, organization, and articulation of their ideas. I am also trained in tutoring for literary analysis and reading comprehension. I believe in helping the student to discover his/her own ideas about the text by asking questions to guide them through the critical thinking process. I am devoted to helping students succeed, and I will work around the clock to find the best method to help each individual learner. For seven years, I have been involved in voluntary tutoring as well as professional tutoring and teaching. I earned my BA in English in 2008, and I am currently ea

As an honor roll student, I upheld the highest standards throughout my educational experience. I took advantage of workshops and conferences, which were availed through the college, as well as those through my employers. My emphasis was literacy and my grammatical skills are stellar. Several college professors have encouraged me to incorporate my writing skills in my professional life. I have tutored children of all ages, as well as adults, in English and Sign Language over the span of 4 years. I have also taught Sign Language in community, educational, and home settings. I am very passionate about education. I am a life-long student and my enthusiasm for learning is contagious. Each child has learning style and my priority is to discover that of your child's. My teaching approaches are quite varied and my flexibility allows adjustment, according to the needs of the student. I create a s

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. 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.

Ever since I was a young college student, I have had a desire for educating young people and adults. I enjoy observing their enthusiasm upon connecting with a subject. I have earned a bachelor degree in elementary education, as well as an endorsement in the area of ESL (English as a Second Language). I have taken many courses in the teaching of both reading and writing. During the past six years I have been a substitute teacher for several school districts, donated my time at church helping the youth, and volunteering as an ESL teacher. I look at myself as a conduit to childrens' lives. My hope is that I'll make an educational imprint in each individual I teach. I am kind, patient, understanding, and helpful. If a child is having trouble learning one way, then I'll shift my approach and teach in a different style. I believe all students can learn and with enough encouragement, patienc

I teach because I believe in the impact a teacher can have on a child, and the impact a child can have on the world. I embrace each child’s personality and background, harness their unique strengths and talents, and foster growth in potentially underdeveloped skills to cater to the individual needs of each child. I am dedicated and experienced in meeting the “specific needs” of all learners. I am committed to helping students find success in the classroom and discovery in everyday experiences. I am skilled in developing individual learning plans, promoting total development ~ academic, physical, emotional, ethical, and social. I strive for all students to feel confident, valued, and ready for future schooling. As a former Peace Corps Volunteer, International Curriculum Developer and teacher I am convinced that our world is a classroom full of opportunity and information. I have exp

I earned a BA in Music from the University of California, Los Angeles where I also completed a post-graduate year required for a California life-time teaching credential. I am an experienced classroom teacher (3rd/4th LA City Schools and Casablanca, Morocco) as well as music specialist (LA City Schools) and piano teacher (California/Colorado). I also have solid work experience as an administrative assistant with Hewlett-Packard and later as an Information Technology II employee at Colorado State University. Additionally, I have recently obtained my TESL certification through Bridge LinguaTech. I am first and foremost a teacher/learning facilitator, and secondly a computer lover. As a teacher I am sequential in learning points, and creative in presentation. I am good at finding first the 'starting point' enabling the student to better relate to the lesson. I can usually discover a reason

I have an extensive math and science-backed education, including two BS degrees and an MS as well. Not only have I excelled my entire academic career, but I am a great communicator and teacher. I have taught everything from Physics to undergrad students to English as a Second Language to students in Korea. I have lectured in front of 100 undergrad students as well as tutored one at a time. I have tutored for most of my adult life, covering math, science, physics, engineering, English, and even computer training. As both a teacher and a tutor, I have found several things to be important to a successful educator. First is engagement. I find it necessary to engage the student and involve them in the lesson. I've found that even something as simple as using props to illustrate a point helps the student understand the material better, but also be more interested in learning. Secondly,

I am a recent graduate of Northern Arizona University with degrees in Anthropology and Religious Studies with Honors and Summa Cum Laude with a 4.0. I am also fairly fluent in Spanish; I took classes in both high school and at the university level, and spent a summer volunteering in Costa Rica in a Spanish-only village. My studies provided me with a solid education of many different cultures and traditions, and as a Teaching Assistant I needed to work with people of different backgrounds and lifestyles. I was there as a resource for students, and enjoy teaching and working with others. I am comfortable of working with people of all ages, but I especially enjoy teaching children. I am very interested in education; I believe it is one of the most powerful yet underestimated tools we can employ.

After receiving my BA degree I taught elementary school while also obtaining an MA degree in English. I have always been a writer and have published poetry and stories. I later received an MA degree in Counseling and for many years trained and supervised MA level student counseling interns for a non-profit agency. I read and critiqued many student papers. I received a Psy.D. degree from a distance online program. I have written hundreds of papers in my lifetime! I teach non-credit adult education classes and have been a mentor/tutor with at-risk youth, a volunteer ESL teacher for immigrants (I have a working knowledge of Spanish), and am currently taking classes to renew my Colorado state teaching license. I love teaching and I believe that learning can be a positive experience. I know that people learn in different ways and one method does not fit everyone. I work hard to determine

I love meeting and interacting with new people, children and adults alike. I have extreme patience. I believe that it is imperative to make the student feel comfortable in the learning environment. I would never embarrass a student for asking a question. So many times in the past, I have witnessed teachers ridiculing students for asking a question because they genuinely did not understand the subject matter, which prevented the students from asking any more questions in class. It is also important to know why the student, or his or her parents, believes that he or she needs a tutor. Science, especially biology and chemistry, has always intrigued me. Since I was a child, I had always known that I wanted to study biology. I received a BA in Biology in May 2006 from CU. During my studies there, I focused on chemistry and received a minor in French. My coursework is quite varied, an

I am an exceptional math/English tutor. I've earned a bachelor degree in Accounting from Santa Clara University. I have three years professional working experience for several multinational companies, which has helped me understand the importance of great communication and math skills in business. In Denver, I've taught math and English to high-risk youth. For the 2010-2011 school year, I had 100% of my students’ parents request me to be next year's tutor. I passed the state certified PLACE mathematics exam showing competency in math (i.e. pre-algebra, algebra I, II, calculus, trig, geometry, and other math operations and concepts). In Peru, I taught English for a year. I speak fluent Spanish and have taught many students with disabilities. I love teaching kids. Kids absorb new things like a sponge and often need things taught in a variety of ways in order to fully comprehend a subject.
