...I worked as a teaching assistant for a core engineering course, Science of Materials. I taught a weekly review recitation and held weekly office hours, which gave me the opportunity to guide students through the course and supplement their knowledge. This ignited my initial passion for teaching. I believe teaching should be "hands on" by involving the student through questions and promoting participation. One-on-one teaching especially should be less lecturing from the tutor and more...

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.

...work. I believe that for a student to have an effective learning experience, the tutor must not only be passionate about teaching, but also about learning. As a passionate learner, 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...

...a classroom teacher who loves to help students succeed. Education is not a one size fits all model, and as such I am committed to finding out what strategies work best for you.

In my spare time I love to coach and play rugby, go hiking, play music, cook...

...material and build skills. My program has given me a strong background in math and the sciences, and I especially have enjoyed helping students grasp the concepts behind chemistry. I've found that the key in teaching chemistry, or any subject, is to find strong connections to what students already know. Whether that means relating to personal experiences or just finding the right metaphor, I'm all about bringing the material to a place where my clients...

...I attribute this development largely to a single teacher. My math teacher in middle school was able to teach with an impressive sense of passion and patience while making sure his students were comfortable with him and his lessons at all times. Since middle school, I have found that my favorite teachers always exhibit these qualities. Now that I am not in school, I have an overwhelming desire to help students in a similar manner...

...favorite subjects to tutor are Algebra II, Precalculus and Physics because I feel the content has a good amount of variety and I have a lot of experience tutoring them. I find it very satisfying to engage students and help them reach their academic goals. I am enthusiastic, have good communication skills (communication includes listening!) and always come organized and prepared for sessions. Students learn differently and I do my absolute best to provide a...

I have several years of tutoring experience in the life sciences including biology, biochemistry, anatomy and physiology at the high school and undergraduate level. I hold a Bachelor's Degree in Sports & Exercise Sciences from the University of Northern Colorado and a Master's Degree in Biomedical Sciences from Regis University.

...in many different ways. I truly believe that no one method is the best for solving problems and learning concepts. Instead, it really depends on the student and how they learn best. Because I am able to look at problems with both an analytical and liberal arts mindset, I believe I can tailor my lesson plans with the right strategies and techniques to meet each of my students’ needs. My work history ranges from tutoring...

...as I scored in the 95th percentile or above on the SAT, ACT, and MCAT. Since graduating in May with two degrees in biology and psychology, I have spent my time going through the medical school application process. During the upcoming year, I hope to help tutor those still in school not only to keep on my toes academically, but to help those who may be struggling with various subjects throughout their academic careers. There...

...problem solving to help you understand concepts and theory to allow you to use your knowledge as a tool in everyday life. I use a crawl, walk, run progression in covering the material. If there is a difficult topic we will try multiple techniques to find the right one for your learning style. I am currently a full-time student working on a Master's Degree in Structural Engineering at the University of Colorado, Denver campus. I...

...my hands on. I can tutor math, physical sciences, and history on the middle school and high school levels. I love art, science, and figuring things out, and in my spare time I like to read, draw, sing, make animated videos, hike, build things, and help out at my church. I love the challenge of trying to distill a complex idea into something I can understand and express, and I hope that by tutoring, 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 have learned in the future,...

...Wisconsin, with a degree in physics. Currently, I am a data science intern for a start-up called Polco where I am learning software and analytical skills. I love snowboarding, mountain biking, playing music, and hiking so am thrilled to be living in Denver. Intellectually, I am interested in math, physics, and computer science. I think that one of the best ways to learn is by teaching so I look forward to sharing what I know...

In this manner a student can learn in a way that seems to come naturally and allows knowledge to flow more seamlessly. Fostering a passion for learning and encouraging growth as a successful student are my main goals as a tutor. Outside of the lab I enjoy exploring what...

...my education while helping my close friends. Now that I have graduated, I realize how much I miss tutoring and helping others. By approaching problems from different directions, I can help nearly anybody learn a difficult subject. I have a firm belief that everyone can learn anything, they just need the right teacher. I plan on becoming that teacher and am pursuing the teaching career by gaining tutoring experience and heading back to school to...

...Spanish. Out of these subjects mathematics is my favorite to teach because of the logic found in the subject. I find it fascinating how, in mathematics, topics work towards a unifying theme. One of the traits which I believe makes me a good tutor is my patience. While tutoring I enjoy working through problems repeatedly with students until mastery of the concept is achieved. I strongly believe that every child is capable of learning any...

I am here to help, encourage, and guide you through the world of mathematics and physics. I recently graduated from Colorado University Boulder with a Physics degree and want to put it good use!
