Daniel E - Grand Junction, CO 81503 (7.6 mi) - Basic Learning Skills Tutor - $34.00/hr.
I am drawn to education by the enjoyment of children and I am often requested as a substitute teacher because of my calm demeanor, patience and kindness with all children. Children and adults learn developmentally; by using their previous knowledge to build new understanding. I believe in helping children realize their potential by supporting them with a comfortable base of knowledge and then giving them challenges that they can successfully work through. In the developmental model kids learn step by step and tutoring provides the invaluable opportunity for individual assessment on which to prepare deliberate and specific instruction to quickly move students toward the excellence of their unique human potential. As a seeker of truth with an acute interest in human nature, cognition and development, I am naturally drawn to education of today’s children to help construct the foundation for

While teaching high school students and adults I have helped many struggling learners. One of my main goals in all interactions with students I strive to build their confidence.

Kristin F - Clifton, CO 81520 (10.9 mi) - Basic Learning Skills Tutor - $36.00/hr.
I believe everyone has the ability to learn and that this truth is one of our defining qualities as humans. The problem arises when we expect the human mind to work in the same way in every individual, when we attempt to use the same strategies to teach the differing learning styles. I begin with each person by learning myself. I need to know what learning style works best for that person, what has been tried in the past, and his/her successes and failures. At all times, when one person is working with another, and especially when one is in the position of aiding another, we must only speak those things which encourage and edify. Professionalism, respect, tenderness, and refinement are my trademarks as an instructor. While earning my Bachelor of Arts degree in Creative Writing, I served as a tutor in general education at the elementary level. I have often contributed to the creatio

Brad F - Grand Junction, CO 81507 (12.6 mi) - Basic Learning Skills Tutor - $32.50/hr.
My experience is as broad as it is varied. When I taught at Sylvan, I taught every course they needed me to. When I taught professionally, I taught teams of scientists and then instructional designers.
I'm comfortable with all ages and backgrounds. Scaffolding and positive reinforcement describes my teaching style; combined with a healthy dose of humor and individual, associative modeling.
Learning should be fun and challenging. Busy work doesn't have to take such a negative connotation.

Patricia D - Montrose, CO 81401 (43.5 mi) - Basic Learning Skills Tutor - $38.00/hr.
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 school. From 1991-1998, I worked at a Christian elementary school, where I was a librarian, bookkeeper, and substitute teacher. I have also done private tutoring in Spelling, English, Composition, and Computer. Every child/person should be encouraged to reach the highest level of education possible, because knowledge shapes the future. 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 w
