Marcus W - Aurora, CO 80016 (6.6 mi) - Praxis Exam Tutor - $38.00/hr.
I love developing and fostering a positive, trusting relationship with my student. By becoming acquainted and appreciating my student's motivations and learning style, I tailor my instruction to best suit my student's needs. I firmly believe that a teacher must be both flexible and intuitive. Whether I am teaching through discovery or through direct instruction, I continually assess and respond to my student's level of understanding in learning the new material. It is through this dynamic learning environment that I am able to make math both accessible and rewarding. I thrive on the "Ah ha!" moments that build my student's confidence. Extremely driven to achieve academically, I graduated magna cum laude with a BS in Applied Mathematics from the University of Colorado at Boulder. While completing my coursework, I gained real world experience applying high level mathematics as a research a

William R - Denver, CO 80220 (14.5 mi) - Praxis Exam Tutor - $41.00/hr.
I graduated Summa Cum Laude and Phi Beta Kappa from the University of Denver with a double major in History and Mathematics. However, I pushed myself to succeed in many other subject areas as well, including Theatre, Spanish and Leadership Studies. I also developed exemplary essay writing skills during my educational experience. As a high school student myself, I took a total of nine AP Exams (AP US History, AP European History, AP Calculus BC, AP Chemistry, AP Physics C, AP English Language, AP English Literature, AP Spanish Language and AP Spanish Literature), and I scored the highest attainable score of five on all of them. During the past two years, I have tutored students in History, Mathematics, Science and Language Arts. I believe that every student deserves the individual attention they require to excel. I am capable of offering this help to your child: I am very patient, flexibl

Frank D - Littleton, CO 80127 (17.7 mi) - Praxis Exam Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I have taught and tutored both children and adults in a wide variety of situations, from job training and test preparation to tutoring for a specific subject. I have taught ESL classes and done individual tutoring, as well as both group and one-on-one instruction in grammar and composition. I have tutored for SAT, ACT, TOEFL, TOEIC, ISEE and entrance exams. I have created my own materials for such tutoring but also use books available commercially. I am interactive and student-centered. I see where the student's strengths lie and build from there. We do homework and tests together, and I move from a coaching role to an observational one, only coaching occasionally as necessary. We work not only on the subject matter, but techniques which improve comprehension, retention, organization and motivation.

Jason M - Denver, CO 80204 (18.6 mi) - Praxis Exam Tutor - $42.50/hr.
I enjoy working with students and have a high level of patience with each grade level. I am usually pretty laid-back and allow students leeway to have a bit of fun while they learn. I believe that without a little fun in their daily routines, students grow stagnant and bored easily. I enjoy feeling that I make a difference in student's lives. I have a substitute teaching license from the state of Colorado. I have been subbing for Denver Public Schools and Cherry Creek School District for over three years. I have worked with ages ranging from Kindergarten to 8th grade.

Hanna F - Arvada, CO 80004 (23.2 mi) - Praxis Exam Tutor - $33.50/hr.
I have a true passion for teaching children. It is because of this love for kids and teaching that I like to run a love and logic classroom where actions are met with consequences that will benefit every child throughout their child and adult lives.
My teaching philosophy is that of balance. I believe that every classroom and student requires a delicate balance of management, instruction, and respect. In my eyes every student requires this type of balanced approach to learning and growing. I also believe that every child is different and therefore each individual needs a different type of direction and instruction in order to be successful. As an educator I have and will strive to constantly differentiate instruction to fit the needs of all of my students. As a graduate from the University of Northern Colorado with my BA in Elementary Education (k-6) I have had much experience working

Amanda C - Westminster, CO 80021 (28.2 mi) - Praxis Exam Tutor - $38.50/hr.
When you enter a classroom it is like entering a mixing bowl full of different ability levels, motivation levels, talent, and skill. It is the teacher’s job to address each one of their students as an individual to assess what their strengths and weaknesses are. I believe in data driven assessments, but also in getting to know a student personally. The students know what they are good and not good at. They will be honest most of the time if they are comfortable with you. I believe in differentiation to the highest degree and practiced this in my alternative high school experience every single day. It is not fair to bore some students with information they already know and overwhelm others to the point of lowering their self esteem. To address each skill level is to know your students personally and academically. I am a firm believer that it takes someone special to be a teacher. A good t

I hold a BA in physical education & health,a MA in Reading/Literacy, and am highly qualified and certified to teach English/Language Arts.

Literacy skills are crucial to the advancement of all learning. My teaching style is guided by the student, curriculum and situation. It is crucial to evaluate where a student is in the learning process, understand how each learns best and be clear

Annie B - Colorado Springs, CO 80907 (39.2 mi) - Praxis Exam Tutor - $40.00/hr.
I believe that it is the teacher's job to discover the true learning style of their students and when we do it is like unlocking a treasure chest of gold, so to speak. I enjoy teaching all the subjects in school and I enjoy the challenge of teaching children with learning disabilities and or emotional disabilities. I like to differentiate my instruction so that all students can access the curriculum and I keep track of my performance through regular assessments and using the RTI (Response to Intervention) process. I know how to teach reading and writing effectively studying under Dr. Elaine Cheesman from U.C.C.S. Also, I am able to teach math effectively for grades 5-8 with my combined experience and the courses I have participated in. For the past four years I have been working at The Children's ARK-A residential treatment facility for at-risk youth. I was a teaching assistant my first

Kenneth O - Longmont, CO 80503 (41.9 mi) - Praxis Exam Tutor - $41.00/hr.
Each child has an individual learning style the teacher needs to discover and build upon. I believe there are many tried and proven methods of education that schools have used over the years to educate students that are still valid. My task as a tutor is to find out something about the difficulties they are having with a particular subject or lesson, and then plot a path that will lead them to success in the particular lesson they are having trouble with. I must to my best to break down complex problems into a step-by-step process that will lead the student to understanding and discovery. As a retired Air Force aircraft maintenance technician much of my time in the Air Force was spent as a supervisor training and mentoring young airmen to maintain sophisticated jet aircraft.
