Award-Winning Pre-Calculus Tutors in Denver, CO

...year, 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...

...4th semester tutoring in the athletic department here at CU where I have tutored over 50 athletes in various math classes since being the first freshman tutor there. Tutoring math is a no-brainer for me because it allows me to combine my 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...

...master new skills. This can only be achieved by being balanced and settled emotionally. If you're scared of Algebra or stats or economics or the LSAT, it is going to be very difficult to learn. So, a great deal of my style has to do with breaking down the various perceptions and fears that can get in the way of us learning. I'll spend time convincing you that Algebra is something that not only will...

...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 aim to use my empathy and sensitivity to students' unique struggles and learning styles to teach concepts and problem-solving strategies in an individualized manner. While I specialize in chemistry, I happily tutor a variety of other subjects and also employ expertise gained in...

...love of adventure. Despite these innate qualities, I am also very driven to help other people, and tutoring is a simple, yet powerful and effective way I can help others. I have done a lot of tutoring work in the past working with students of all ages from the elementary to college level. I have a strong background in the sciences as well as other subjects. I also have extensive experience with test preparation. Tutoring...

...state of Texas to Colorado. My tutoring style is patient, analytical, thorough, and engaged. My main goal is to help you become a better problem solver by focusing on foundational knowledge, critical thinking, and reasoning. I value all subject matter, but I find mathematics and science to be the most powerful and exciting fields of study. Outside of academic and professional pursuits, I enjoy climbing mountains, racing cars, fencing, and playing guitar. I've competed on...

...My research and professional work have included automotive engineering, healthcare IT, and renewable energy. I have tutored elementary and high school mathematics and am available to tutor all math subjects up to and including AP Calculus AB and Physics. While the mechanics of math problems is important, I think solving real-world applications of mathematics is the true test of how well a concept is understood, and is much more enjoyable to learn. I enjoy hiking,...

...math, I also am a somewhat experienced writer who's written for professional newspapers and has received some top-notch instruction in the field. I feel as confident in my written language skills and instruction as I do with math. I also have a solid understanding of rudimentary physics and chemistry (stronger in physics), and thoroughly enjoy working with history and political science/civics topics, even if these subjects may fall out of my advertised area of expertise.

...people who claim to hate math just haven't had the right teachers or experience with it. I love tutoring these people most of all because my philosophy is that the student has to learn the language of math. I love teaching/tutoring statistics because I can demonstrate its relevance to anyone, even an Opera major (or musician.) I also love geometry, Algebra I, and probability for the same reason. I have had the best experience tutoring junior...

...and a minor in Computer Science. I moved to the Denver area in 1980. I enjoy astronomy, photography, birding, geocaching (ask me!), reading, and exercise (especially racquetball). I generally like the outdoors, except in the summer, when it is too hot and I like to dabble in computers as well. I did some tutoring in college, and then worked with a wide range of private clients as well as with another private tutoring company. I...

...special interest in heat transfer and fluid flow. I'm also getting a math minor in computational mathematics. As much as I love learning, I love teaching and helping my peers and many others understand the material with many years of tutoring experience. I work hard to make sure the subjects at hand are well understood as well as a fun, engaging, and accessible learning experience for everyone. During my free time, I enjoy making my...

I taught high school math for 7 years before deciding to go back to school myself. I am now taking graduate classes at the University of Denver, studying software development. I find great joy in sharing my love of mathematics with others. I have a big heart for students struggling with math and feel the most important moments of my life have been helping students achieve greater knowledge and understanding in mathematics.

...excel in their classes. I also worked as a camp counselor for two summers, and I love working with children. When tutoring, I like to break problems down to their fundamental pieces, and go step-by-step to identify any trouble areas and ensure thorough understanding. I make sure to relate to the student to create a comfortable environment, because after all, I was in their shoes just a short time ago. I also believe it is...

...no longer living in Boston I still have some of my students contacting me for intermittent aid. When I tutor I do not give answers, I help my students put together pieces of their own knowledge to come up with answers. I believe a good tutor is a guide more than a teacher; my goal is to help my clients achieve their maximum potential. Most of my spare time is spent training. I have a...

...college student, I am constantly helping my peers in their courses, as well as being helped by friends and peers myself. The most important thing this has taught me, aside from tutoring skills, is that everybody has a different way of learning that works best for them. This is what I base my tutoring philosophy on, which is finding out how YOU learn best, and tailoring my teaching style based your learning style. My time...

...throughout 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...

I have worked as a professor, manager and international business consultant in different countries. I have had a broad educational background in Economics, Finance, Management, Technology and Education.... Sometimes students do...

...working with the students and that work is what lead me to becoming a Mathematics major at the University of Northern Colorado. My last semester of college, I worked in the tutoring center at UNC as well and really enjoyed the connection that I made with students and how much I learned from them. As time allowed, I also accepted private tutoring jobs for kids in Middle School and High School. Because the majority of...

...because 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...
