I believe my teaching style is very adaptive to the age and need of the learner, however, I require parental support, dedication, and willingness on the part of the student to make my tutoring approach successful. I believe we are all lifelong learners and with hard work and dedication can achieve any goal we have for ourselves. I do not see myself as very strict nor am I very lenient.
I have never tutored before, however, I have taught Sunday School for two years, I am currently volunteering at two Museums where I am engaged in educational activities, and I have experience in home schooling my 5th grader. I have just recently graduated from college and will begin my graduate studies this August. I have received a GPA of 3.89 and I am an excellent writer, editor, researcher, and test preper. I have passed numerous test, including various CLEPs, GED, and TOEFEL in the highest percen ... read more

I have extensive experience working with students of all ages, from elementary school through junior college. As a parent volunteer, I tutored K-6 students in math and reading. As a Learning Center and Basic Skills instructor at Trinidad State Junior College, I taught classes in math and English, and I worked individually with students on a variety of subjects including study skills, spelling, history, math, and English. For the past several years, I have owned a small business that employed teenagers. I both developed and administered the training for these first-time employees. I have also taught dance to children and adults. I hold an inactive Texas Teaching Certificate with English and history endorsements, and I am in the process of becoming a certified teacher in Colorado.

American History is one of my top subjects! I have my B.A. in History and a minor in Philosophy from the University of Colorado. I am a dynamic historian by demand and inspired to learn anything unknown; I welcome all history necessities. Dedicated and well mannered students only.

There is not progress without dedication; there is no dedication without interest. I spark interest!
I am a newly grad from the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs; I earned my B.A. in History and a minor in philosophy. I maintained a 3.5 GPA and had the honor of being selected to study abroad at the University of Puerto Rico while writing my senior thesis on the socioeconomic conflicts of Puerto Rico's independence movement. I will be pursuing my Master's degree next fall, continuing the path of academia. I relate well to students because I am a lifelong student. Also I am a husband and a proud parent of three children. I am experienced at running a healthy household where academics reign supreme; dictatorship is often avoided under the guide of homework being an opportunity to show off. Kids find that fun. I am also aware of the challenges of parenting because I too am a pa ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

i take a more relaxed route of teaching. i have found that if you sit there and point out faults and appear like you expect them to get it right on the first try it will turn the student away from you and cause them to hate the subject and ultimately fail. i take a more friendly route. talk about myself admit faults that i have when they appear. i try to become friends with the student in question and add fun with learning. if there is something specific that is needed extra attention to i will ask them to do the problem and point out there faults. i do not do everything for them. i let them test there knowledge and provide support when needed.
For 11 years that i have been in school i have excelled in the fields shown and have helped my friends and others succeed in those fields. Most of the kids that i have helped have passed there classes and have gone to excel in higher classes ... read more

I am a High School Student at Legend High School I am a level 8 gymnast so weekends are the only time I have open. I love working with younger kids. I have worked with younger kids in Science fields before and their grades have gone up on an average of 4%. I also make sure the child is comprehending what they are learning instead of going through the motions and just finding patterns within the problems.
I like to be serious and get things done but I also like to have fun. I like to take things they are interested in and incorporate that into their learning.

More About This Tutor...

It is my belief that all students can learn. However, students have different learning styles; therefore, a teacher needs to be creative and discerning at times in order to help. My experience as a public school teacher has shown this countless times. Students need to be ready to accept the challenge, and realize that there is no "magic bullet". The more effort a student puts into the learning achievement, the greater the rewards.
I have worked with students ranging from elementary through high school. My specialties are the following: Language Arts and U.S. History. I am also comfortable working with elementary students in any subject, as I taught all elementary subjects in California prior to moving to Colorado in 1995. I have tutored many students one on one or in small groups.

As a graduate of a presigious liberal arts college, I was driven to a belief in life-long learning. As such I have been to graduate school twice, once in business and once in international relations, to gain an understanding of the world in which we live both in terms of economics and finance and through the study of foreign policy and the wider world. I became fluent in Spanish while on assignment in Spain in the early 1990's and keep my skills current by working actively with the Latino community. I am also a scholar of 20th century european and diplomatic history, with concentration on the period between the two world wars. I currently teach Consumer Economics and Business at Pike's Peak Community College, and English as a Second Language through Catholic Charities.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always worked with children, from baby sitting to working in a licensed day care facility. I have helped children with their homework and love the challenges early childhood creates. With my experience working with children I have learned patience and valuable listening skills. I earned by Bachelors degree in history which taught me how to sit and pay attention to detail.
Teaching to me is one of the greatest pleasures I have. Helping children learn and making learning fun is something I strive for. I understand that all children are different and teaching styles need to be just as different. I like to find different ways for children to like and understand a problem that was once difficult. I listen and like the children to explain to me their difficulties and come up with a solution together to make learning fun.

As educators, teachers and tutors play a vital role in the lives of children. I consider this to be a great responsibility and a great reward. We are responsible to see that every child in our reach feels safe, valued, and capable. We receive great reward in watching the light of learning beam in a student's eyes, possibly for the first time. I will encourage and guide all my students to reach their maximum potential. I hope to provide students with the opportunity to develop the knowledge and skills necessary to meet the challenges of their future. I believe this brief quote puts everything we do as tutors, teachers, and educators into perspective: "In 100 years from now, it will not matter what type of car I drove, what kind of house I lived in, or how much money I had in the bank...but that I was important in the life of a child."
I taught 5th grade for 3 years, right out ... read more

My teaching style provides for low, mid, and high learners. I modify the assignments to elevate frustration and anxiety for lower learners. I provide repeated directions, frequent check-ins, and extended time. I give encouragement and positive feedback to students who are benchmarked. I create more challenging activities for higher level learners using Bloom’s Taxonomy. In addition to differentiating instruction, I prepare for the day with engaging, standard based lesson plans. I take the opportunity whenever possible to integrate various standards into the lesson.
My experience consist of student teaching, teaching, and substitute teaching in elementary, junior high, and high school at School District 11 and at the Colorado Deaf and Blind School. The grade levels I have taught range from preschool to high school. I have taught special needs students, benchmarked students, and gift ... read more
