Communications Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Watkins, CO

My teaching style is casual - I am not stuffy or formal, and I try to get right to the heart of what is holding a student back, or what the difficulty is that he or she is having. I establish rapport and then dig into the meat and potatoes of the problems. This way, we tackle the problem together and a solution can be found. I have lots and lots of experience with reading and writing to share! I have 30 + years of experience with composition - legal writing, high school and college composition, MLA and APA formatting, legal citations, and the elements of creative writing. I recently received an M.Ed. and Literacy Certificate from my alma mater, Regis University, and I am eager to share all of the knowledge and experience I have gained with your students. When I tutor students, I make sure they come away with better reading and writing skills and hopefully are more excited about learn

I'm an environmental engineer who has been tutoring for the last 13 years. I enjoy working with children and excell at working with children who might be struggling with comprehension or who have learning disabilities. I have experience working with children who are ESL or ELL. I have worked with elementary, secondary and high school students. Make learning fun and everyone wins! Not all children absorb material the same way. I try to explore different ways of presenting material and working through concepts to relate the material to something that can be understood.

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. I have worked a number of years in Early Childhood, Elementary level of Education, Middle School, and Special Education. I have also worked with children from the age of 6 weeks to 18 years old. I have worked as both a worked as a Para-educator and a teacher in a classroom with students with behavioral disorders.

I generally use the Socratic method of teaching. It has a tendency to require the student to get involved in the learning process. it goes back to the theory that if you provide them a fish you eat for the day, teach them to fish and they eat forever. Although, if this is not successful, I have learned that students can learn, but some in different ways. I am available to help your child find academic success. I am patient, easy going, and considerate. I believe all students can meet their potential if they are given the appropriate surroundings and learning experiences. A good educator can make a world of difference in a students education. I graduated Summa Cum-Laude from the Community College of Aurora in 2010. I now have two college degrees one in Business Administration (Finance) and a second one in Accounting. I am driven to achieve the highest level of success possible. I hav

Securing a BS in Political Science was a process that allowed me to examine a comprehensive body of knowledge that deals with the structure of our country, our belief systems, and our government. Having recently graduated from UCDHSC’s MBA program with an Entrepreneurial track, I leave the university equipped with a new set of skills. Most of the curriculum was heavy on the writing side, forcing me to take a hard look at my grammatical skills, but allowing me an opportunity to grow and learn. The volume of written work over the entire MBA Program was massive, but it allowed me to hone my research skills and refine my writing style. Having many integrated collaborative group projects over the duration of my attendance familiarized me to the team member mentality prevalent in our current work environments. I have tutored pupils in English, math, social sciences, physics, mathematics,

I am a first year Doctoral student at the University of Colorado Boulder. I was a TA last semester for the department of Journalism and Mass Communication, and I have six semesters of TA experience from Cornell University in the departments of Communication, History, Asian Studies, and Near Eastern Studies. I am interested in this position both because I enjoy teaching and I have a strong interest in international communities. I spent a portion of last year in South Asia conducting fieldwork for my thesis and realized just how much capital language has in the social arena. When I returned from India, I began tutoring international school age children to improve their English language, particularly in writing assignments. For this reason I am most interested in tutoring children and adults with language barriers.

For as long as I can remember I have been tutoring students in various subjects. My tutoring experience started when I was still in elementary school and has yet to be interrupted. I had the privilege of being a course assistant for two years during my undergraduate work, which gave me experience in front of the classroom as well as the skill of tutoring and facilitating study groups outside the classroom. I feel my strengths lie in the areas of Psychology, beginning Statistics, English, and Language Arts. I have also tutored in the areas of beginning Spanish and lower level Math. Having been raised by two teachers, education has always been an important aspect of my life. One of the most important aspects of education, I feel, is determining the most effective learning style for oneself and being able to study and process information using that method. I do not believe that there i

My approach to education is extremely individualized. My students have taught me that we all learn differently, and that success is always reachable with patience and persistence. I find that creativity and a variety of approaches to learning are the keys to making this success happen. I started tutoring as a result of my knowledge base and the needs of the young people I worked with. My first tutoring experience was with a young man who was studying pre-calculus. Since then, I have tutored in upper level mathematics, history and social studies, English composition, and basic sciences. I had a position as a history and social studies teacher for five years in a private school, and have also taught adult education and GED prep.

I have broad experience working with a variety of students in different settings. My combination of domestic and international teaching jobs gives me a unique perspective on teaching and learning styles, curricula, and student needs. Although my main subject has been English, I have also gotten to teach science, global studies, and physical education. In every class, I have had the opportunity to work one-on-one with each student, focusing on those who have special needs. My graduate degree in interdisciplinary humanities has kept my writing, editing and analytical skills sharply honed. I have a personal and professional passion for life-long learning. My passion for knowledge and the practical application of that knowledge usually creates an enthusiasm in my students, as well. With individual students, I try to find a motivating factor in his or her life that makes learning relevant

As a student at Colorado State University I felt that I was especially talented in English and journalism. I even studied Spanish, in the states and in Spain, solidifying my passion for language. I was hired to tutor and mentor college-level athletes while finishing my final year at CSU. I cherished the experience and am currently employed at a trade journal where I edit and write. I am solely responsible for grammar and style for both internet and hard copies. I enjoy the responsibility and through this challenging position, I have learned that I am versatile enough to edit stories I sometimes do not fully understand. I have tutored all college-level subjects, but am especially skilled in English, Spanish, journalism, communications, art history, and production. I am passionate about sharing with others what I know, and in turn, enjoy learning from the experience of tutoring. I alw
