...hope to share these insights and excitement for the subject while deepening conceptual understandings. The greatest metric of success in a tutoring session is being told that I was able to break down explanations from the student's class and reformulate them into a version that is compatible with their way of thinking.

I graduated from San Jose State University with degrees in Philosophy/Religious Studies and Physics/Mathematics. Throughout college I tutored various math subjects, physics, and chemistry. After years in the business world I taught math with Denver Public Schools as a Blue Print Math Fellow. I am passionate about learning and helping others. Everyone has a different 'style' of learning so as a coach I need to grasp that and present each subject with a congruent style.

I love to tutor because I...

...try to interpret the world around me, be that math, science, or why my garden behaves differently in Colorado than my family's in Nebraska. Early on in life, I loved numbers, patterns, and the problem solving nature of my parents' careers. This led to me enjoying math, science and engineering and turning those interests into a potential career. Using my passion for these subjects, I have tutored many middle school and high school aged students,...

...help through collegiate quantum mechanics. As an educator, it is essential to prepare students with the right skills not only to master the curriculum, but to also develop the academic habits that lead to life long learning and generating a positive impact on society. For each student I work with, I tailor my tutoring to match their individualized needs. I have worked with students who have ADHD and students who just need additional scaffolding to...

...two passions: math and helping people. Many people say that they aren't a "math person" but I would argue that's not that case. Everyone can understand math, but not everyone will understand it in the same way. My goal is to open student's minds up to math based on their way of thinking and learning style. When I'm not solving a math problem you can probably find me competing in sports or the occasional card/board...

I have a lot of experience tutoring informally for the fun of it to classmates, students that were underclassmen, and even family friends and relatives. When I am not learning more about math and science, I enjoy watching sports such as football, hockey, and baseball. I enjoy the mechanical side of cars, and very much like to tinker with them. I am excited to...

...Literature and Language from the University of California at Los Angeles, and Applied Linguistics/ESL from the University of Hawaii). I took a short break from teaching to care for my parents---but even then I found a way to continue learning by going to culinary school (I love to cook! I love to eat!), earning degrees in Culinary Arts and Pastry before I returned to teaching once again. But formal schooling is only one way to...

...I have spent time all over the United States and spent time studying in Colorado, Kansas, North Carolina, Mississippi, and Maryland. I think the best type of learning is accompanied by steps in developing real skills, and real personal quality. After spending time as a college athlete, a college advisor, and now a teacher, I have seen education from every angle. I look forward to creating an academic story with each student I work with!

...English as a second language and the teaching of English. I am most passionate about teaching in the humanities, but find that working with students on any subject is fulfilling, including standardized test prep. Having lived abroad in Spain and Chile, I also know the importance of connecting classroom learning in Spanish to the actual experience of the language and am always excited to help Spanish come alive beyond conjugation worksheets. Regardless of subject, I...

...in these aspects, I am also exceptionally familiar with standardized tests, especially Reading, English, and Science portions. While I don't agree with the strict "teach to the test" method, I firmly believe teaching the strategies of test taking (especially in the above portions) are essential to successful test scores. Overall, I believe education must come from encouragement that learning is a lifelong, worthwhile pursuit, not a memorize-it-until-the-test mentality. Only by pursuing that level of encouragement...

I have always been a student who peers know they can turn to for a explanation of...

...am sympathetic to the difficulties of motivation and concentration that often hinder achievement, as I remember going through them myself, so I prefer to remove all judgments about students and work with them so that we can find the best way to help them learn. I have worked as a tutor in middle school and high school classrooms in Greeley while I was a student at the University of Northern Colorado. While there, I worked...

...science teacher in Mississippi and Colorado. I tutor a few different subjects, but I am really passionate about helping students improve their standardized test scores as they prepare for college. Improving SAT and ACT scores can really open doors to admission and scholarships at great schools! Currently I am a graduate student studying social work at the University of Denver.
