Curtis P - Gunnison, CO 81230 (16.2 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $50.00/hr.
As a student at Western State College in Gunnison, CO I have been tutoring students and fellow athletes in Math for the past year. I have enjoyed the work I have done so far in this area and was looking to further my experience in this field throughout the Gunnison area. I expect to graduate with my BA in 2011. Because all student learn at different levels I believe in order to be a good Math tutor you must show patients with the students you are working with. With my background in math I feel very comfortable working with kids of all skill levels and helping them reach there full potential.

Randi A - Gunnison, CO 81230 (16.3 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $52.00/hr.
I believe that if a student doesn't understand what is being taught, part of the fault lies in the way the information is being presented. Most standard classroom settings do not provide the type of learning environment many students need, and I believe this is the root cause of their struggle with the subject matter, not the subject matter itself and certainly not the student. I am very good at explaining concepts in many different ways and work patiently and at the student's own pace. Frustration with the subject and/or the teacher only makes the learning process more difficult, so I try to keep the learning fun and tap into the student's own interests and experience in order to make the subject accessible. I am a passionate, driven, ambitious learner and teacher. I graduated Valedictorian of my High School with a 4.0 GPA and Summa Cum Laude from College with 191 credits and a GPA of 3

Mary F - Gunnison, CO 81230 (17.8 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $34.50/hr.
I have enjoyed teaching for many years. My honors-level undergraduate courses led me to a lot of reading and writing --and to serve as a teaching assistant in ethics for five semesters. Since I also love math and accounting, I was also hired to teach entry-level accounting courses. At work, I served as a beta tester for Excel and began teaching others to use it, as well. I now have thirteen years of experience in teaching accounting, besides two years of coaching college-level composition. Volunteer experience with elementary students inspired them to succeed in all the language arts, as well as basic math skills. Helping others develop new skills and abilities has been great fun! I love teaching to students who wish to learn. When the student's drive is there, we find ways to overcome difficult concepts. I engage all of the most common learning styles, encouraging students to un

Patricia D - Montrose, CO 81401 (33.5 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $38.00/hr.
Every person can learn, including a tutor. Helping someone find the best method of gaining knowledge takes investigation and intuition on the teacher's part. Together, you can begin a journey to reaching whatever goal you set. I believe I can be a creative guide along that path. I believe in hands on teaching wherever possible. Learning is more that just rote memorization. It is the developing of a quest to broaden horizons, a thirst for new adventures, the conquering of giants. I try to make learning an experience, not just grades. I began tutoring in the sixth grade. We did not have honor courses where I attended, so older students tutored younger students. In college I tutored many subjects to earn money for my tuition. After graduating, I worked in two different school systems as a remedial teacher. I even designed a new remedial reading and spelling program for the one sc

Gina J - Montrose, CO 81401 (35.1 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I enjoy teaching children of all ages, particularly on a one-to-one basis. In addition, I learn from the children. I believe a child learns best through individual attention and the opportunity to have those "aha" moments. People of all ages can meet and exceed their potential. My experience with tutoring children is that we have made a difference in each other's lives. As one who received a Master's Degree in Clinical Psychology, I've always loved education. With corporate background I have excellent grammatical and communication skills. In the corporations in which I worked, I wrote training manuals and trained and counseled managers and supervisors. During the past 8 years I have tutored students in math, psychology, spatial orientation, writing and reading. I also work with the Feurstein MLE program.

Melissa W - Montrose, CO 81401 (37.1 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $37.00/hr.
I believe in the power of education to change people's lives. I have been a music teacher for ten years, a mathematics teacher for two and look forward to another thirty of sharing my passion. Throughout my career, I have taught piano, voice, woodwinds, general music, group piano, and music theory for studios, public schools, and as a private teacher. Additionally, I have taught mathematics as a private tutor and in public middle and high schools.
I believe those who can do, teach. As a teacher, I strive to continually learn in an effort to be a more effective teacher. While attending Bowling Green State University, I developed skills such as listening, dictation, improvisation, and composition. In addition, I developed an understanding of music history, music literature and music theory in addition to my skills in mathematics. As a dedicated teacher, I am enthusiastic about student s

Lacey I - Olathe, CO 81425 (42.3 mi) - Elementary Math Tutor - $36.50/hr.
I am a fun, outgoing person who loves to learn. I am patient and willing to spend the necessary time to help students become academically successful. I believe all people have the potential to learn new things and expand their knowledge. I want to help others realize their learning abilities by teaching them new study methods! I believe learning should be fun. If it’s not fun and enjoyable, then it is hard to be motivated to focus on education. Each person has their own unique way of studying and making learning easier. I have several ways that I have found that helps me learn. Because of this, I can help others learn more successful study methods. I have earned a Bachelor’s in Biology from West Texas A&M University and a Minor in Chemistry and Animal Science. I was home schooled through grade school, and I had to opportunity to help my younger brothers with their studies at home as wel

Born and educated in Great Britain. Graduated Rickmansworth School with Certificates of education in Mathematics, Physics, Biology, English Language and English Literature. Attended Watford College and obtained the equivalent of a Bachelor's Degree in Civil Engineering. After emigrating to the United States and serving 4 years in the US Air Force I pursued a career in IBM Mainframe Programming.

Recently I have conducted in-house and 1 on 1 computer and software training sessions for a local not-for-profit. Each of us has a different way of learning but the first step is to appeal to a student's natural inquisitiveness. If they can see real life applications for the skills they are learning they will become engaged and enthusiastic. I have
