A Little Bit About Me...

I am currently finishing my Masters degree in Special Education at UC Denver. I have more than two years of classroom experience with ages ranging from elementary to high school. I have a very strong content knowledge in Social Studies and believe that learning happens best when we work with the interests and abilities of each individual student.

Read More About Brent M...

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

Experienced. Effective. The logical choice.

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 guide my students down a path of critical thinking, all the while leading them to the answer by asking a series of questions designed to stimulate their thought process. I will find a different way to explain the material if the student does not comprehend it. I will always work at the pace of the student. I believe in encouraging each student to stimulate confidence and foster their potential.
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 ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have gained an advanced level of French through my education at Boston University and through my work experience. As a French minor, I studied French language and literature from some of the best professors in the country. I became fluent in French through my work experience at La Voile Boston Brasserie. This restaurant allowed me to practice my French everyday with French people. I have both a strong grasp on the French language and also a passion for speaking and learning French.
I believe I am a great educator because I am enthusiastic about teaching children and enjoy helping kids work out solutions to problems. I use positive reinforcement to teach children while showing them how the subject they are learning can be fun. I believe that by getting a child interested in the subject at hand, they will learn it much easier. I also think that speaking a foreign language is ... 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

I like to work one on one with my students. This way, I can give each student my full attention. I like working with people of all ages, from six years old through adulthood. I love it when a person understands my explanation and is enthusiastic about having done so. I am patient and willing to go over any material many times until the student fully understands it. My English grammatical skills are excellent. Many friends from Japan and other countries who are graduate and undergraduate students have relied on me to make sure that their grammar and word usage is correct. I feel that, with my help, any student's writing skills will improve.

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

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

More About This Tutor...

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!
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.

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 and the child. The tutor is able to discover the child’s learning style and tailor tasks that will promote learning and also create a positive atmosphere for the child. I believe that learning should consist of discovery opportunities that create an exciting atmosphere and engender life-long learning. I believe all children are able to meet their potential and rise above expectations if given the proper guidance and opportunity. Good teachers can make a difference that lasts a lifetime.
