...years in New York working in finance. Math and Spanish have always been two of my favorite subjects (and yes, math can be fun), and I am excited to get back to teaching in these areas. I think everyone has a unique learning style, so I like to get to know each student to determine how to work with and build upon his or her strengths. I have worked with all ages and backgrounds and,...

...year in both France and Germany, and I obtained college minors in both languages. I studied finance and accounting at the undergraduate level before completing a master's degree in business. After working for accounting and investment firms, I grew tired of the corporate environment and decided to study medicine. Since 2009, I have earned a medical degree, studied film, produced a documentary, and wrote several books, as I continue to teach business subjects for an...

...at the Metropolitan State University of Denver working towards a degree in Finance. I also tutor part-time at MSU Denver as a supplemental instruction leader for finite math in the business and social sciences area. Tutoring math is great because everything is clear cut and to the point. When things get difficult I like to teach using the socratic method, which basically means I like to ask questions that will help you figure out the...

...learn as well as teach. I have a deep background in finance and economics. I passed all three levels of the CFA. I have taken graduate level courses in statistics, history (both world and U.S.), and government which are all subjects that I enjoy immensely. I tutored as an undergraduate and regularly work with my children and their studies. My teaching philosophy is guided by the option of either loving it or just passing it....

...(or maintain) their passion for learning (and meet their immediate goals). Leaven it all with some fun. Throughout my career, I have had the benefit of great mentor/tutors and have always tried to do the same for others. Formally, I have taught students at the high school and college level in math and history (Rutgers University - PhD, 1988) and advised many others informally as a banking and investment professional (Chartered Financial Analyst (CFA), since...

Additionally, I regularly provide support to my sister and many of her friends with their high school Spanish and writing classes.

I'm a highly experienced senior business executive, with over 20 years experience in all aspects of business management, from accounting, finance and economics to business management and ethics.... My approach to teaching is to provide real-life situations which demonstrate the concept, and then to work through numerous and varying examples and problems until the concept has been thoroughly mastered.... Each student learns differently. My primary goal in the first meeting is to understand how they learn, what their current understanding is of the course content, and what they wish to gain by personal tutoring. This may involve determining where the student believes their shortfall in understanding of the subject matter is. On some occasions, the student may not know where their shortfall is, so I will need to determine that with the help of the student. It may also be helpful to talk the student's parents (if a high-school student) to determine the shortfall.

...when they understand the material. Speaking of passion, my passion for the business world has not totally left me. Talking, conversing, and educating others about topics in business is an area I find enjoyable as well. I also greatly enjoy athletics, especially football, with having played it for 13 years, and other athletics since the 4th grade, including wrestling, basketball, and track and field. Since my "retirement," I have tried to keep current and involved...

...of expertise include elementary and middle school reading, writing, and math, as well as Spanish, all of which I enjoy teaching because of the different types of creativity required by each. I believe that by developing an interest in learning and mastering new things, many opportunities open up further down the road for young people. Because of this, I strive to impart a love for learning in all my students. In my free time, I...

...of mine. As an undergraduate at the University of Pittsburgh, I tutored a refugee family; I worked with the two youngest girls in arithmetic and literacy and supported the older high school students in math and English. After graduating, I moved to Denver in 2012 to serve with an AmeriCorps program called City Year. This is where I truly discovered my love of teaching and figuring out ways to creatively engage students in their education....
