...at the University of Colorado - Boulder, studying 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.

...with English, essay writing, and grammar. Plus, I'm a not-so-secret history buff, especially when it comes to European History. I've also got quite a bag of tricks when it comes to study tips, organization, and balancing studying with life. I got my start in tutoring during my undergraduate studies at DU. I was a camp counselor with a summer camp for high schoolers. The camp focused on Chemistry and Math. Afterwards, I taught PCAT review...

...for over 7 years. I tutored college level courses and taught independent living skills to college students with special needs (mostly autistic spectrum disorders) for 6 years before becoming a middle and high school teacher for students with unique emotional needs for two years. These experiences have allowed me to develop the skill to accurately assess a student's comprehension of a subject and then provide instruction using strategies for multiple intelligences in a approachable manner.

...families to better their situations. These experiences abroad deeply impacted me and directly influenced my career path. I obtained my certification in Teaching English as a Second Language and was able to provide an enduring skill for the futures of my students. Teaching English to language learners has allowed me to develop my own curriculum and learn how to engage both adults and youth in their own learning processes. This involved advocating and encouraging my...

...their learning style and ignite (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...

I am especially experienced in economics, finance, math, and history, but I enjoy all subjects and I hope to help you enjoy...

...human experiences. Tutoring any student is a great privilege and opportunity to nurture and guide individuals as they embark on the great adventure which is the advancement of their education, a task which I do not take lightly. I had to make a choice in picking my major, and I chose for it to be in the field of science. However, my strongest subject is math, although in my heart I love science, math, and...

...abroad in Dijon, France where I learned not only how amazing real Dijon mustard is but all about French culture and the French language. My studies on Europe focused on the European Union, European History, and International Relations. My goal in tutoring is to make subjects exciting and relatable to a student's interests. I know how difficult it is to pronounce an 'R' in French and how hard it is to remember what modern countries...

...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...

...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...

I am currently a full-time student at Metro State University of Denver. I love learning and helping others to learn, as well. I enjoy sports, both playing and watching; my favorites are lacrosse and football. I also love to read, cook, listen to music and attend concerts.

I very much enjoy helping students build confidence in themselves as they achieve their learning goals. I love learning new things that I can then teach others. I like to build up a variety of subjects that I enjoy teaching.

...horn, I've been fascinated by the process of discovery during instruction, how curiosity ignites into experimentation and eventually transformation. To engage in the process of improvement with a student is something to be cherished and thoughtfully cultivated. Whether providing private music lessons, editing papers, or helping a student work through a tough geometry problem, teaching enables me to share in the moments that spark curiosity in my students, providing them with the guidance they need...
