Award-Winning ACT Tutors in Westminster, CO

...have great compassion for students needing coaching to unlock the power of the mind to learn. I relate well to children and teens, having fathered, mentored, and helped to teach six at home. I have substitute taught elementary through high school -- band and chorus and art and French and geography and social sciences. I have been told I am a good teacher. At the Naval Academy I was chosen the best of 22 military...

...I tutored students at an all-girls orphanage in a bilingual environment. Throughout high school, I also helped students prepare for standardized examinations such as the SAT, ACT, SAT subject tests, AP Exams and Regents examinations. I am eager to work with students in these areas, with a particular emphasis on reading, writing, and history. My experience working with children expands beyond tutoring. I also have worked with students on their college essays. I absolutely enjoy...

...school students after college. I find that I am always able to make the material simple and relatable for the student that I am tutoring - it is a question of presenting the material in a manner that is easy to understand. In addition, I am very patient, friendly, and easy to talk to. My tutoring style is very adaptable to any type of student - the key is developing the student’s independent understanding so...

...can excel. I like to present material in an engaging and relevant manner so that we can all learn and achieve success. One-on-one tutoring is an effective technique, particularly for explaining and modeling math, and I enjoy seeing students attitudes toward school brighten when they see immediate progress in their work. As a writing tutor, I like to focus on helping students find their authentic voice. Essays succeed when students strip away the extraneous material...

...science and math classes can be on top of other studies, and I am really looking to work through these issues with potential students. I am available for sessions in biology, chemistry, physics, as well as a range of math levels. I am also available for SAT, PSAT, and ACT prep. I have ample experience with academic writing, so I can work with students through many different types of assessments. I know that the subjects...

...elementary school students create their first screenplays. I am also writing my third novel, which will be the beginning of an intergalactic sci-fi trilogy. I tutor students on the GMAT--with a focus on the Writing, Reasoning, and Verbal sections. My favorite area of the exam is Sentence Correction, since grammar is one of my nerdy passions. I still love watching Schoolhouse Rock! and singing along with “Conjunction Junction” and “A Noun is a Person, Place,...

...Junior AP/IB and Senior English for several years at a public high school in Austin. Motivated by the success of my students, I decided to pursue an MA in English Literature from Columbia University in 2008. While in NYC, I also had the opportunity to tutor students in Chinatown and Lower Manhattan for the SAT. Since moving to Dallas, in addition to raising a Kindergartner, I have been working on completing a novel through a...

...discovered a wonderfully fulfilling career in education. I have spent the past two years teaching middle school in rural Massachusetts, and am now certified to teach grades K-12 in both Massachusetts and California. While my concentration is in U.S. and World History, I've also had the opportunity to teach English, Literature, and Standardized Test preparation. Most recently, I taught English and essay writing one-on-one to some fabulous middle school girls. In my spare time, I...

...don't even really notice it, they're just... on. There is no short cut, no revelatory moment. Everything is a process. Learning is a process. And because I believe that, I also believe that anyone can learn to do anything as long as he or she puts in the time. The only way I got better at writing is by writing more. And writing about the things that matter to me (which was and is basketball)....

...I now work for a STEM non-profit, combining my passion for education with my skills in public relations. My most treasured moments in the classroom happened when working individually with students, and I'm looking forward to continuing to help students learn and grow. I am most passionate about English and reading; however, I am willing and able to tutor in math and science. I am a firm believer in education of the whole child. While...
