I have privately tutored children in drawing and painting as well as taught art classes to children on the Crow reservation in Montana for the Center Pole Community Center. Along with art lessons including clay building, painting, and drawing, I also taught my classes about teamwork, study tips, and coping with reservation life.

I have tutored children and adults for 20 years in the Denver area. At the scholastic level my students improved by a minimum of one full class ranking(average 200 elo rating points). Adult students who wish to enter tournaments will receive training based on an emphasis in tactics and combinational play. This is the heart of chess. An addition of psychological preparation for the tournament will improve results as the normal pressures of competition can ruin many players form. As a chess player for over 40 years I understand the importance of connecting with each person on an individual level to compliment the personality as it is expressed on the chess board.

I enjoy teaching and seeing the light go off with the students. I know many students struggle with their studies and I can help them find their strengths. I like to see what excites the student then work it into the curriculum.

I am one of eighteen siblings and was raised in the small town of Las Vegas, NM., homeschooled my son (7th-11th grade) who earned his degree in Psychology and minored in Theatre and have always had a passion to teach. As a Children's Church volunteer (Ages 5-15) for over twenty years in Albuquerque, I acquired a unique teaching skill which also compliments my gift of giving and patience that students lack in a classroom setting. My accomplishments as a single parent and a teacher surpass the experience I have gained in the corporate world. Success to me means doing whatever you believe is important and the youth of today are not only our future ...they're what make living worth while. My classroom setting is focused on the student and their needs. I heavily rely on repetition and object lessons to aid the students in comprehension and application. Depending on the age group, the beg

I have extensive experience teaching all aspects of English, writing and composition, grammar, and literature. I have taught at University of New Mexico for the past seven years during my graduate work, and as a part-time instructor. In my teaching I commonly have worked one-on-one with students in the writing process. I am also a poet and creative writer with a broad base of knowledge in the humanities and arts to draw from. Though I have been working with college students, I love younger students as well and have much patience and adaptability with learning styles and levels. I believe that listening is a key to helping a student succeed in a subject matter that may not come easily to them. Building on a child's strengths and trying to find a "way in" that makes sense to them is a good strategy. Using creativity and "outside the box" approaches to learning can help a child access their

As a student in Health Science, i.e. Medical Technology, I worked in a genetics laboratory for 14 years learning lab instrumentation, trouble-shooting, cytogenetics and professional etiquette. Lectures as well as public presentations of newly discovered genetic abnormalities was my passion. I truly enjoyed preparing and presenting these exciting talks. I decided to change careers and look into the education field. I have been working on obtaining my Alternative Teaching License and will complete my coursework for this by the end of May, 2011. I have been a teacher's assistant for the past 2 and 1/2 years in kindergarten classes, one of which is a bi-lingual class.

I am flexible in my teaching style because of my experience with professionals and the general public, and because of the diverse topics that I have studied. I like to make a difference when someone wants to learn. As an Associate Research Professor at Duke University I conducted research on the health of the elderly population and the genetic background to age-related diseases. I am well published, always serving as my own statistician. The background to most common disorders in adults is complex involving multiple genes, thus I used advanced fuzzy latent class analysis to identify high and low risk sets of gene variants and to define the level of risk for individuals. I have collaborated with graduate students and taught genetcs to medical students. As a co-founder and the scientific director of Matrix Genomics, Inc. I relate genetic concepts to others on a daily basis.

I believe in making subject matter relevant, not to mention interesting. Having different methods of explanation is key. As well as a solid foundation in the material. I am extremely patient and an excellent communicator. Finally, I believe in teaching to the potential, i.e., there is always more to learn and more to strive for. I am a college graduate with a Bachelor's in Economic Theory and Theater Production. Currently, I am finishing my Masters in Education. In addition, I have a New Mexico teacher's license and am "highly qualified" by the State in Math. I first began tutoring, especially math, in high school and have continued to do so over the years. I am highly motivated when it comes to teaching. And, am a believer that there is more than one way to learn.
