Experienced. Effective. The logical choice.

As a tutor of student athletes at Indiana University, I tutored students from all walks of life. I began by tutoring Biology and Spanish but the need for tutors in English, Writing, Chemistry and Statistics soon arose and I stepped up to fill those positions. Using previous knowledge from AP classes in high school, as well as recent knowledge gained from my classes, I was able to successfully convey new information in easy to understand and applicable terms to these students. This past year I tutored high school math, English and Genetics.
I have always enjoyed teaching others sharing my love of learning. I find it most effective to use a variety of methods to successfully teach information. Material is best learned when it can be easily understood by the student and has practical applications for everyday life. I am not the type of tutor to just hand out answers to problems. I ... read more

After receiving my Bachelor of Science (B. S.) degree in Chemistry, I tutored students enrolled in a GED program and regular institute courses in the areas of Chemistry, Mathematics, Biology, Physics, English, and Social Studies. While doing graduate studies in Medicinal Chemistry, I taught and supervised two general and one organic chemistry laboratories for students. While working in Information Technologies (IT) at a telecommunications company, I taught telecommunications industry standards and billing functionality to coworkers.
I believe that every student deserves to receive the highest quality education. Since each student can learn in a variety of ways – through touching, smelling, seeing, talking, and/or hearing, I will evaluate each student to determine "What will best help him or her to learn the subject matter?" Guided by that evaluation, I will "do what it takes" to te ... read more

I love, and am passionate about teaching children of all ages. I am a mother of three, and all of them have drastically different learning styles. I believe there are ways to teach that can encourage the child in their strenghts, and weaknesses and learn how to learn by emphasizing these strengths.

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 observing any one of my classes could feel definitely "drawn in" if so desired.
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 7t ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Using a variety of teaching strategies, I engage students with all learning styles including using music, creative writing, visual arts, interpersonal interactions, quiet reading, and exploratory activities. My experience with young learners has taught me that all students appreciate authentic learning situations, in which they can use all of their senses to experience a subject. Furthermore, I believe and have seen that all students can learn, though at differing rates. I am patient with all students, and try to demonstrate to them my own love of learning, as well as my consideration of each of them as unique and special individuals.
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 ... read more

I am in my first year of teaching 5th grade at Wyatt Edison Charter School in Denver’s Five Points neighborhood. The student population I serve is 75% Latino, 24% African American and 1% Caucasian. As a member of Teach for America, I receive intensive training in multiple areas of effective teaching strategies. I’ve taught summer school math, reading, and writing in Atlanta Public Schools to students who have failed the previous school year. I hold a current Colorado teaching license and received a degree in Political Science and Sociology from Howard University.
I love children and have many tactile and visual learners in my 5th grade class; thus, I use a lot of movement, realia and manipulatives in order to appeal to those learners. Students who typically have this learning style respond well to mnemonic devices, thus I encourage and teach self-created songs and gestures to i ... read more

My strength as a teacher is in using scaffolding to help students gain confidence as a learner. What that essentially means is that I provide a great deal of support and modeling to students learning new skills and concepts. Gradually, as they become more advanced in learning, I remove those supports so they are performing more independently. That technique, along with lots of personal support, makes me an excellent teacher.
Since 1970, I have been teaching English in grades 7-12 in both Middle and High School. My teaching has encompassed helping students become proficient in both writing and reading skills. Teaching in Denver has challenged me to work effectively with students having limited English proficiency as well as learning disabilities, but I enjoy working with all students!

I am focused on helping young students discover the joy of learning. I have taught approximately 500 + students over the years. My passion is teaching and educating. My teaching style reflects my belief that young students learn best by doing. Making connections are crucial. Helping students make those connections and guiding them to discovery is more than just learning a subject, it is learning how to learn. I take into account individual learning styles to help students cement and utilize what they have learned. I strive to help students master the material; I strive to help students develop learning strategies that will carry them throughout their school career and hopefully throughout life as well.

I have over 5 years of teaching experience. I taught high school English as a foreign language near Budapest for 3 years. During that time, I focused on teaching English language learners, helping over 150 students pass their EU fluency exams, teaching essay writing to prepare students for majors in English at the university level, and the skills they needed to analyze classic literature. Since returning to the United States, I have completed my Masters degree in Education with the University of Phoenix, taught pre-school and second grade. These experiences have given me the skills to not only teach higher levels of English but to also be able to give young students the tools they need to begin the reading and writing processes.
To put it simply, I love teaching. I believe that every child can learn. The beauty of a private tutor is the one-on-one connection between the tutor ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Tutoring the children over the last two years has been the most rewarding work for me. When a middle school child actually gets up, goes and gets a dictionary, and looks up the meaning, pronunciation, and spelling of a word, without having direction from me, it makes my heart sing. Never have I had that feeling before, therefore it is my goal to continue to provide any child with the best tools, a positive mindset, and forward ambition to achieve the best opportunities in life that only an education can give them. I believe it is imperative that people of all ages, ethnicity, and socio-economic status have access to the best avenue to attain wealth, prosperity, and an increased quality of life: an education. It is my hope that when my students leave my class that they feel hopeful, excited, and energetic about their futures.
Securing a BS in Political Science was a process that ... read more
