Learning is the cornerstone of life, if you're willing.

I'm easygoing and adaptable to different learning styles. As a lifetime learner, I always believed in differentiated teaching was a must when dealing with students with so many varied backgrounds - so it all depends on the person/student in front of me.
I've taught business related courses at three different high schools in the Northern Colorado area for seven years that include: accounting (also taught at AIMS Community College) business economics, general economics, AP microeconomics, AP macroeconomics, computer business applications, video production, web design, principles of business, marketing, sports and entertainment marketing, word processing, business presentations, entrepreneurship, international business, finance, and college prep classes through AVID. In addition, I have over ten years of "real-world" experience as a financial advisor, banker, tax collector, retail man ... read more

As the result of three college degrees (BS, MBA, and EdD) plus 20 years as a college professor and researcher/analyst, I possess extentive experience teaching and using statistics, algebra, business math, research skills, report writing, and a variety of business disciplines. A 30 year passion for history has resulted in an encyclopedic knowledge of American and world history. Although I do not possess a credential in history, I have been told that what I know and the manner in which I present it makes it fascinating for the listener. I am not the boring, egg-head type, just a regular guy who will probably show up in blue jeans, who is enthusiastic, and who will set you/your student at ease right away.
I do indeed love to teach. My approach is relaxed, well-prepared, encouraging, and humorous when appropriate. I prefer interactive communications. My passion for the subject matter ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My teaching style is trying to relate to each person and make everything easier for them. Dealing with A.D.D my entire life, I've learned how to break apart the entire problem(or essay) into better and more clear parts. A good educator needs to demand accountability from it's students. I believe that a student needs to do a little work every day, instead of a lot in one day. I stress that every student keeps a notebook that highlights main ideas in every subject. I have been through it, so I know what is important long-term.
I'm a 27 year old that accepted a part-time internship in Fort Collins, Colorado. Also, I'm in the process of applying for PHD programs (starting in 2011) in hopes of becoming a professor in the long-run. Although I don't have experience as a paid tutor, I have volunteered and helped out a plethora of people in two main areas: Dealing with disabilities i ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Coaching and mentoring has always been the cornerstone of my professional career as well as my academic pursuits. My professional experience includes Chief Operating Officer of a large LLC and a Bank President. I received my B.A. from the University of Phoenix in Criminal Justice Administration. Following, I was immediately accepted into a PhD program at Arizona State University. As a PhD student I study all facets of psychology within; and pertaining to, organizations. This includes styles of leadership, motivation, and stress of high-risk teams such as NASA and Special Forces.
Every great endeavor begins with a great plan. Once the topic is determined and the current level of the student is ascertained I begin by creating a custom program to get the child up to speed in a fun, engaging, and high-energy format. Drawing from my education and experience, I can relate com ... read more

I have always been a believer in giving students a foundation from which to learn and grow. I enjoy teaching students basic skills that can be applied to many different subject areas. For example, I think things like test-taking skills, communication skills, and problem-solving skills are all things that can transfer between subject areas and even outside of the classroom. I think it is also empowering for students to help one another. The best way to learn something is to teach it. This not only builds confidence, but it helps students retain information.
I have experience as both a teacher and a tutor. I graduated from the University of Illinois with a degree in English/Secondary Education. Throughout my years in college I learned theories of education, observed in classrooms and student taught at both the middle school and high school level. After graduating college in 20 ... read more

I utilize several different teaching strategies and attempt to pull strengths from the youth and work with positives. I give examples and direct youth in the direction of the correct answers. I utilize reading and instructing out loud to the class, writing on the board for further and clearer instructions and information, using real life ideas and situations to help explain the lesson (ex. of using microwave and cooking to help explain temperature and gave reminders at the end of class for work completion, assignments and expectations. I am firm with some basic expectations and allow for some freedoms that seem to benefit the flow of the class and avoid power struggles and the potential for additional problems.
For the last 3 years I have been working as a special education teacher at a non-proft treatment facility. I enjoy working with children. I conduct myself in a very positiv ... read more

I used to own an educational products company for nine years. During this time a tutored students. I was an honor student in college and in my career I applied mathematical models for business. I offer significant, tangible real life applications of math that will help students see value in there education.
My teaching style is patient and acknowledges that it often takes a number of times for a student to understand concepts. I tend to approach mathematic problems is several ways to give a chance for the student to grasp a concept. I allow questions and offer advice. I encourage determination and dedication in students because I believe success is more work than anything else.

Effective, long-term educational results occur best in a teaching environment that includes energy, enjoyment, and enthusiasm (i.e., the joy of learning!). With that motivation, I believe that building a strong foundation in every subject area is the key to students' learning and retention. Teaching the "Hows" and "Whys"---not just the "Whats" (the answers)--is imperative as is critical thinking and organizational development! Also, relevant, meaningful applications of learned material are essential and encouraged. Being a results-oriented, caring tutor and mentor is always my ultimate goal---with smiles all around! Teaching competence while developing confidence is the key to effective learning!

I believe that in order to help a student you must first be able to connect with him/her. That could mean understanding a student’s background, researching the latest video games or playing softball after class. For example, several of the girls I worked with at the JEI Learning Center, spoke very little English. Often they got frustrated and just sort of shut down -- stopped responding. At first I tried to have them draw pictures but when that didn't work, I asked them to show me something from home. They folded cranes and strawberries out of the paper that I gave them. Though the exercise didn't help them understand verb tense, it did help build trust between us. After that, when they felt insecure or confused, I was less intimidating.

As a nontraditional student at Casper College in Casper, WY I augmented my tuition costs as a peer tutor for two years specializing in Biology, Anatomy, and Psychology. I have extensive experience in writing research papers, and interpreting case study papers in psychology and health, as well as statistical research. Throughout my college experience I have always tutored other peer students in classes that I have excelled in.

My teaching style reflects my personality and that is comfortable and confident. Peoples' minds are most open to learning when they are comfortable with their situation, surroundings, and the people they are interacting with. Being confident in yourself will lead to confidence in your students.
As a lifelong learner I have a unique perspective on how difficulties inside and outside of school can effect learning. I earned by B.S. in Business when I was 31 years old and I am now in the process of earning my Masters Degree. During this time I have aquired the skills needed to become succesful in learning and I am eager to share these skills with others. My ultimate goal is to instruct college classes to help others make thier stars shine.
