A Little Bit About Me...

I am mother of two. They are 11 yrs and 6 yrs. I love to go walk, fishing, and movie with them. I really love to have any kind of activity with my children and enjoying it!! Also, I like to read a book after my children went to sleep.
I received my AAS degree in Accounting from Morgan Community College in December 2009. Also, I am available to work full-time employment immediately. I have extensive experience in various office procedures and secretarial functions.

More About This Tutor...

I have taught straight skills based lessons, created thematic units that take you across the globe and brought students out into the world to explore problems and challenges like professionals. You tell me how you learn best and I will adapt to fit your needs. From a specialized curriculum to simply walking you through some challenging problems on a homework assignment. I am what you need.
After graduating with a degree in Chemistry Education I went off to teach. Six years of professional teaching experience later there are few teaching challenges that I have come up against and not found a working solution to. Native tribes learning math and science, migrant children studying Earth Science, an adult looking for help with some chemistry problems, or an Expeditionary Learning student looking to tackle real world problems; whatever your background or needs I can help. ... read more

I have always known I have wanted to be a teacher. I do my best to adjust what I am teaching to what my students actually have passion for. I believe that not all students learn the same and that is some thing we need to constantly be adjusting for. As educators we need to work with the things students already know to really help them to succeed.
I am a Math Major at the University of Northern Colorado. I am working on my Secondary Education Licensure in the PTEP (Professional Teacher Education Program) as well. I have done over a year of observations and working directly with students. I have 2 semesters left of classes at Northern Colorado, and will be student teaching next spring.

More About This Tutor...

While earning my bachelor's degree, I worked in several tutoring programs assisting students with reading comprehension and writing composition skills. I taught grammar to small groups, read one-on-one with third graders and assisted junior high school students with their homework assignments. Though my degree is in fine art, I began my undergraduate career as an English major. In high school I took both AP English exams and I went on an honors trip to England to study British literature. Also as a high school senior I took sixth place at the state speech tournament with an oratory that I wrote. Even now as an aspiring children's book author/illustrator the written word still captivates me.
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 ... read more

More About This Tutor...

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 specifically in test prep.
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 th ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

From teaching preschoolers how to read to teaching high school students how to survive (and enjoy!) Algebra, I find it rewarding to discover how individual students learn and then help them to succeed in their efforts. I love kids and am able to relate to different age levels and needs. I understand that every child learns differently and has unique strengths and weaknesses. My goal is to be able to teach children fundamental concepts that translate into solving specific problems. For example, I teach phonics as a base for reading so that students are able to use the concepts they have learned to sound out new words. In math courses, I not only aid in completing particular equations, but I also make sure the student understands the principles and applies them in other situations. I desire to partner with parents in helping their child achieve academic excellence.
Although I h ... read more

More About This Tutor...

My experience in paid teaching (excluding numerous volunteer and non-paid opportunities) range from teaching Vietnamese refugee "boat-people" children (news film footage archived by Vanderbilt University) in 1975 through years of Orange County (CA) adult education in English as a Second Language to my present duties in metro Denver of teaching immigrant adults in English as a Second Language. Along the way, I also experienced fulltime day teaching of a kindergarten class in Fresno and a combined 7th-8th grade moderate-to-severe special education class in Inglewood, California.
My teaching style could be described as modified Montessorian, in an attempt to appeal to all the senses, and to affect the learning channels of each student as a unique individual. Encouragement is lavished on even the adult students, and not all errors are equally vital to correct on an immediate basis. One ... read more
