I have experience in most forms of writing, with most of my experience in persuasive, informational (expository), and scientific writing/research papers. I received an A in every english and writing class I took in college. In high school I took the Language and Composition AP exam and received a 5. On the ACT I received a 12/12 for the essay section, and received a score of R on a scale of J-T on the MCAT writing section. 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.

I'm an environmental engineer who has been tutoring for the last 13 years. I enjoy working with children and excell at working with children who might be struggling with comprehension or who have learning disabilities. I have experience working with children who are ESL or ELL. I have worked with elementary, secondary and high school students. Make learning fun and everyone wins! Not all children absorb material the same way. I try to explore different ways of presenting material and working through concepts to relate the material to something that can be understood.

My students have their own answers-it's my job to ask the correct questions. Over 20 years speaking, training, entertaining and inspiring groups of all kinds. My career in Finance and Real Estate and my passions for speaking and Golf have allowed me to speak to inspire, educate, and entertain. I have managed loan portfolios, addressed board meetings, done radio and voice over work, delivered keynote speeches, and entertained Comedy Club crowds. I have also run several of my own businsesses and been a successful sales representative.

I try to bring information, facts and ideas into a unified whole, so that rather than being a matter of simple memorization, subjects can be internalized, understood and learned. This makes the subjects easier and more accessible both in the short and long run. Tutoring writing, I focus on format and content, turning the agonizing activity of writing a paper into an easy and quick one. I've done some tutoring both officially and unofficially during the years, editing and proofreading friends' papers (for many of whom English was not a first language), as well as tutoring Russian. My educational experience, however, is vast. I completed the IB program in high school (with SL French, Math Studies and Biology and HL English, History and Psychology), majored in Psychology, History and Russian Studies at CU, and obtained a double Master's in Russian, Central and East European Studies at th

SEE Writing section. I have always loved traveling, learning about different cultures, history, ideologies and of course food and have traveled to over 16 countries and lived in 5, Germany, Israel, Egypt, Turkey and most recently México, where my Spanish speaking and ESL teaching journey began. I have significant experience in Mexican culture from teaching English for 5 1/2 years to learners of all ages from young children to adults. I have experience teaching all subjects in bilingual primary schools and English Literature for a year in a private IBO (K-12) school in Querétaro, MX. The subjects that I taught to adults included conversation, Basic English literacy, Business English, and TOEFL preparation. While living abroad, I experienced firsthand the struggles and daily frustrations of not being able to communicate my ideas, feelings or simply ask for directions or order from a men

I love to work with elementary students! I enjoy working with reading and writing but can also teach all elementary subjects. When working with students I personalize the content to each individual student to help them have fun learning.

I have taught for over 30 years in a variety of institutions, but mostly public schools. I am conversant in Spanish and have a broad range of interests and fields of knowledge, including English literature, Math, History, Science, current events and Politics. I have taught grades 3-12, and have experiences teaching all income levels and socio-economic backgrounds. I am a laid back type of instructor and use my experience and intuition to create unique learning environments for each student. I like students to express themselves in their studies, and I encourage each student to express their natural gifts. I have a creative mind which allows me to relate to many types of students and many subjects and to use student's natural interests as a starting point for learning new material.

My teaching style is casual - I am not stuffy or formal, and I try to get right to the heart of what is holding a student back, or what the difficulty is that he or she is having. I establish rapport and then dig into the meat and potatoes of the problems. This way, we tackle the problem together and a solution can be found. I have lots and lots of experience with reading and writing to share! I have 30 + years of experience with composition - legal writing, high school and college composition, MLA and APA formatting, legal citations, and the elements of creative writing. I recently received an M.Ed. and Literacy Certificate from my alma mater, Regis University, and I am eager to share all of the knowledge and experience I have gained with your students. When I tutor students, I make sure they come away with better reading and writing skills and hopefully are more excited about learn

I have been teaching in one capacity or another for most of my life. In recent years, my focus has been private tutoring in physics and mathematics, but I have taught students of all ages everything from horseback riding to martial arts. I consider myself a Renaissance woman of sorts, and like to take an interdisciplinary approach to my research. Currently, my research areas include Biophysics/Nonlinear Dynamics--using electrical circuits to model sensory cells in the ear, and Abstract Mathematics--studying the characters of matrix representations of finite groups. For more information about me, including my full CV, check out my website at courtneydevonfleming.com My approach to both physics and math is very concept oriented. I try to combat the 'shut up and calculate' approach that students often encounter in their schooling. Rather than expecting my students to quickly mem

I am a very interactive tutor as I use many example problems and I can relate the things I am explaining to everyday life so that the kid can not only know how to do something but understand why they are doing it which makes it easier for them to remember processes in the future. I am currently still in high school but I am in the top 10% of my graduating class at John F. Kennedy High School where I am taking 5 college level IB Diploma courses. I have volunteered for years at the elementary school in my neighborhood tutoring kids as well as helping my younger siblings and his friends.

I am very analytical and will be able to decipher the best method for each individual. I know not all people learn the same way. Throughout my high school and college careers, I had the privileged to tutor and help educate some of my fellow students and younger individuals. I was also a swim coach for three years and lessons instructor for seven. I have also had the wonderful opportunity to teach a few students and children with special needs and those who need a different method of teaching.

I've spent 19 years on this earth pouring every day into being creative. I have attended 4+ years of workshops and electives in fields such as Graphic Design and Creative Writing. I would say I've dabbled in most things that involve imagination and my findings were that I needed to share what I learned. I really love to take a personal approach to each student's learning style, then build course ideas based off of their preferences and goals. In groups, it's good to build trust and friendship to create a safe environment for working. I like to inspire students to work on their skills in the fields they desire as well as applying those practices and foundations in every day life. By the end of my time with a student or group, there will be a feeling of both accomplishment and personal growth that is rewarding for all involved.
