I enjoy helping students develop specific skills and meet their immediate goals, but I love helping students experience joy in learning.

John

College Level American History Tutor • +8 Subjects

I am a Senior at the University of Colorado Denver, majoring in History and Teacher Education in Social Studies at the Secondary level (Middle and High School). I expect to complete my Bachelor's program in Spring 2016, and anticipate receiving my Colorado Teaching Certification in Spring 2017. Although I have not yet ruled out Graduate School, I currently intend to teach High School History upon completing my certification.Though most of my tutoring experience has been with Undergraduates at the collegiate level, I have on occasion worked with younger students. I tend to encounter the same difficulties with all History students, regardless of their age or grade. They tell me that History is boring, and they don't consider it relevant to their lives. My goal is to change that perception by finding parallels between the subject matter and the modern world. History is so much more than a list of names and dates to be memorized. In order to truly understand the modern world one must be aware of how it came to be. If I can connect historical events to issues and ideas that matter to the student they will be much more receptive to the material.

Alicia

7th Grade Math Tutor • +41 Subjects

I graduated in 2009 from Trinity International University with a double major in education and Mathematics. I also obtained my Masters degree in Curriculum and Instruction from Concordia University in 2014. I have been teaching for 5 years and am excited to begin my 6th year this fall. I have experience teaching students math from 6th grade all the way through 12th grade. I have taught a wide variety of students ranging to those with learning disabilities to students who are gifted. I will be tutoring middle school math, Algebra 1, Geometry, Algebra 2 and Trig. My favorite subject to tutor is Algebra 1. Is is the foundation of all high school and college math classes.I believe that every student has the ability to learn. Some learn at a faster pace and some take a little longer to process it. I also believe that not everyone learns the same way. It is my job as a tutor to figure out the best way to break things down in order for you to be successful.Outside of academics, I love watching and participating in a variety of sports. I am passionate about running and have even ran a half marathon. I also love to travel. I have been to 9 countries so far and hope to add to that.

Jeff

AP Comparative Government and Politics Tutor • +49 Subjects

I'm a professional artist and published author who has spent a lifetime learning about the world around me and hope to pass what I've learned on to others.I especially enjoy history--especially 19th and 20th century European and American history--and know more about the great conflicts of the last two centuries than anyone should know. (I know that studying wars is a downer, but they are, whether we like it or not, the seminal events that have shaped the world we live in today and need to be understood for the impact they have on our lives.) I also know quite a bit about American politics (I can name all 44 presidents in order, the year they were president, their party, and the major events that occurred during their presidency, none of which has proven useful to me to date) as well as the major cultural and social events of the last 200 years. I'm less conversant on economic trends, but I'm always open to learning more.Of course, as a published author I am also interested in helping others learn how to write better. It saddens me that so few people, children and adults, know how to construct a coherent sentence. Knowing how to express yourself in written form is a vital tool for success, and does much to separate the wheat from the chaff when it comes to looking professional. I'm also a graphic designer with thirty years industry experience, so if you can't figure out how to use Photoshop or Illustrator, let me know.A few personal things about me. I'm a U.S. Navy veteran (1976-1984, back when there were only sailing ships and pirates to deal with), a husband and father of two grown boys (as well as the weary owner of three small dogs, who shall remain as nameless as they are clueless). My hobbies, besides the obvious art and writing, include, but are by no means limited to, reading, watching science and history documentaries (when I'm not watching American Pickers), karaoke (don't ask), playing the guitar, hiking, biking, and tennis. I'm also a coin collector (numismatist to be more precise), and a paranormal investigator. (Check out my website to see authentic ghost photos people have sent me over the years). Other interests include religion, spirituality and philosophy, though I'm far from an expert in any of them.My personal style of teaching is more conversational in nature. History comes alive through anecdotal stories, which I enjoy telling. Dates and places are important, of course, but without context history can be pretty dry stuff. My goal is to make it fun as well as educational which, I believe, improves the chances that the student will retain the information. You also like to show how events correlate to each other and that they are not just a series of random occurrences that have nothing to do with each other. That's the approach I believe works best, and why I believe I can make a difference, especially to a student who is struggling with history.Well, that's about it. If you think I'd be a good match for you, let me know and we'll get together. Thanks!

Alex

Algebra Tutor • +20 Subjects

I am a Biochemistry graduate who excelled in the courses I tutor as an undergraduate student. Since my undergraduate studies I have strengthened not only my understanding of these subjects but also my love for them. All knowledge is beautiful but I am a true lover of science. To be able to accurately and precisely explain the world around us is a wonderful ability. I would like to help you attain not just an A in your course 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, I also speak fluent Spanish.Thank you and I look forward to hearing from you.
