I am completing my 4th year teaching in May. I taught two years of special education and then moved back into the general education classroom teaching third grade. I have always been passionate about working with children who are struggling and helping them build confidence, and become aware of their progress. I have experience working with students with learning disabilities and ADHD. I love working with students one on one and developing a relationship with them. I tutor my own students after school during the school year, and it is some of my most valuable and enjoyable time with them.

A Little Bit About Me...

I have always loved learning. Reading and writing have been two of my primary hobbies since childhood. Still, when I was in elementary and high school, there were times when I felt that the educational system was lacking. I am not alone in this experience, and I have observed countless students flourish with a level of personal and individual care that is unavailable in a standard classroom environment. As a result of my ardor for both teaching and learning, while earning a master of divinity with an emphasis in counseling, I have spent my evenings tutoring professionally. I have earned certifications in math, English grammar, reading and composition, ACT and SAT test preparation, and organizational study skills. I have had the privilege of working with a large variety of students. I have helped young children learn how to read for the first time, and mentored innumerable high s ... read more

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

Each time I have taught a different age-level I have sought to accommodate myself to the learning style of that particular level, whether psychokinetic for kindergarten and preschool, audio-visual for lower elementary, or verbal-phonemic for upper-level students and adults. It was in the teaching of adults that I encountered my most challenging situations, and even today the pedagogy is not nearly as simple as would appear at face-value. Reference to Ken Pike's tomes on the fundamentals of tagmemics, James Stanfield's affective pointers for students of various emotional statuses, and even the philosophy of Noam Chomsky on English deep structure, were all consulted early and often and at one time or another throughout my career.
I have been involved every year since 1975 in the work of an educator, mostly for pay, but occasionally as a volunteer, either community- or faith-based, in ... read more

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.
While earning my bachelor's degree, I worked in several tutoring programs assisting students with reading comprehension and writing composition sk ... read more

Although I have a BS in Elementary Education, my experience ranges from preschool to high school. I have over two years’ experience teaching preschoolers basic reading and math skills. I have seven years’ experience teaching elementary school, where I have taught many children the fundamentals of reading, writing, and arithmetic. While teaching, I tutored several students that needed help with reading, each session ending with tremendous results. In my three years of teaching middle school and high school, I taught math and history. In addition, I taught my students how to write research papers. Not only have I taught academic classes, but I have also taught sign language to all age groups. Currently I am home schooling my children along with tutoring students and counseling parents in regards to their children’s education.

A Little Bit About Me...

During the last five years I have taught others how to use social media, viral marketing, search engine optimization and social media marketing more effectively. I have been recognized by peers as a leader in the emerging space of social knowledge, which embraces a holistic approach to the social interactions an organization has internally and with customers and partners.
I focus on the individual first - her style of learning, what makes her mind tick, how she responds to different methods of teaching. I believe that people are treated fairly by being treated individually. I also believe that people do not care how much you know until they know how much you care. I strive to set an example of genuine care and concern for the learner.

A Little Bit About Me...

The bachelors degree I received in English Literature and Spanish allowed me to spend two years serving as a United States Peace Corps volunteer in Ecuador. There, I became fluent in Spanish and decided to return to the United States to pursue degrees in both Elementary Education and teaching English as a Second Language. I have a Masters of Teaching and will be completing an additional masters degree in English this year. While pursuing those degrees, I taught Spanish to young students through second grade and was an assistant teacher for middle school students. Since completing my degree, I have taught first grade in a public school. My classroom was comprised of English language learners, to whom I was responsible for teaching all subjects.
Using a variety of teaching strategies, I engage students with all learning styles including using music, creative writing, visual arts, in ... read more

After having studied Journalism for three years at Colorado State University, while also taking Spanish as a second major, I decided for the latter as a career path and went to Mexico to study Hispanic-American Language and Literature. After a year of international studies, I returned to Journalism as a reporter for a Spanish-language daily in San Diego. It was not until March 2007 that I finally was given the opportunity to teach as a tutor and later as a substitute at Denver School of Science and Technology in Spanish. I enjoyed that opportunity so much that have since been looking to continue in that field. Having served a mission in Spanish-speaking Chicago, done voluntary work in Ecuador and worked in many Spanish-speaking environments, I am fluent in Spanish and have a better grammatical command than many who call it there first language.

I love helping people. I believe that no one is stupid just some people are better in some areas than other people. I enjoy helping people learn because I love seeing the "light bulb click on above their head" when they finally grasp a concept. I try to simplify the subject (or put it in terms the student will grasp) so the student will understand it, thus my teaching method depends on how the student learns.
I worked as a tutor all through college at Iowa State University. I tutored Math (up through Trig), general and organic chemistry, and statistics 101. These were the main classes I taught, but I also did Spanish 1, ecology, and food science/nutrition. I also tutored some high school students in all subjects but mostly math and science.

A Little Bit About Me...

I view the "cognitive reductionism" currently driving educational standardization as problematic. Every single student has already learned a great deal without being taught; an educator’s challenge is to negotiate the various experiences and sociocultural influences to increase student awareness and use of those inherent, autonomous learning capabilities. A succesful teacher can deliver individualized instruction, and promote critical thinking and reciprocal learning experiences.
As an undergraduate, I tutored peers in comprehension and completion of English writing assignments. While in graduate school, I taught second graders the art and craft of poetry writing. I have tutored/taught various groups and individuals, including Bosnian refuges, at-risk youth in residential treatment, and adult community college students.
