...big impact on my understanding of math and science, and I have made it my goal to ensure that I strive to do the same for someone else. As an elementary school student, I had difficulties accomplishing the work that was required of me, and now I will soon graduate with a B.S. in Electrical Engineering with a mathematics minor and have earned my FAA private pilot's license. I know what it's like to struggle,...

...of Mines, studying Engineering Physics. As a physics major, I know the importance of understanding the fundamentals of a subject before trying to focus on specifics, especially in math and science. I try to have a very flexible teaching style, as I know not everybody learns in the same way, and I will always come prepared to teach a subject in multiple ways depending on the student's way of learning. I am outgoing, encouraging and...

...matter, connecting knowledge to the real world and exploring content from my student’s perspective. In mathematics, my background is primarily experiential and traditionally academic. In regard to languages I have had the fortune to learn them at least partially through immersion. My Spanish has been learned through my eighth grade year which I spent studying in Mexico at a local school and then grammar studying in an upper level college course and finally a semester...

...a minor in spanish. I am available for tutoring in math and science courses, as well as beginner spanish and ACT prep. In my tutoring experience, I have primarily worked with high school students in science and math courses, and have really enjoyed the opportunity to encourage enthusiasm for their classes during these sessions. I work to help my students understand the material at a conceptual level so that they can build upon what they...

...Mathematics with a computational emphasis alongside minors in Economics and Computer Science. Math and test taking are my two academic strong points, so I focus on teaching Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry, Pre-Calculus, Calculus, and ACT / SAT Prep. I try to bundle a passionate approach with a focus on the principles to produce students who can think on their feet and attack any question with confidence. In my spare time, I enjoy reading, athletics (especially rowing),...

...in my experience. When a student excels in their learning, then it not only encourages them to keep moving forward, but it gives the tutor a sense of accomplishment. It is really a win/win situation. I believe in a variety of tutoring methods. No two people are the exact same. One person might learn best from explaining things in writing; another student might succeed in a verbal approach. Developing a relationship helps as well. This...

I have worked within the Colorado school system as both a reading and math tutor for students in grades K-12. I have extensive experience working with students in Algebra, Geometry, Trigonometry and Calculus. I firmly believe that given the appropriate tools every child can experience academic success resulting in increased levels of self esteem which will positively affect all aspects of a student's life.

...but also to share with you this wonder. As far as my tutoring background, I have tutored these subjects privately for close to seven years and at two Universities including one of our local Denver Universities. I am friendly, effective, and professional. Aside from all this lovely science, I am a lively conversationalist on running (particularly barefoot), hiking (particularly long distance, e.g., the Appalachian and Pacific Crest Trails), cycling, cooking, and, of course, chess. Finally,...

History is so much more than a list of names and...
