Award-Winning SSAT Tutors in Denver, CO

...in Colorado. I earned a Masters degree in education two years ago and a Bachelors in biology before that. I especially like working with students who are having a hard time in a subject, because it gives me an opportunity to put my skills to work in helping that student to work through what is troubling them. I do so by using a variety of teaching methods, tailored to the student's strengths. Looking forward to...

...history and history of culture. While in college and graduate school I worked extensively as a tutor and teaching assistant in English, History and essay writing, and I worked with the YMCA as an elementary age tutor. I believe that learning is inherently a collaboration and conversation between student and teacher, and I love being a part of that conversation. My favorite part of teaching is the moment when students make breakthroughs; those moments of...

...angry, hopeless, and uninterested in school when they are having trouble. With the right help and time, problem areas can feel less overwhelming and even fun. My method is to first understand my student's specific issue, and work to address him or her as an individual. I help them develop strategies so when they are alone and facing a difficult problem, they have the foundation and confidence to work through it by themselves. Most importantly...

...the material to life and make learning fun. As a National Board Certified Teacher, my focus is constantly on student learning. By watching how a student learns, I am able to help them when they come across a challenge. My students would always ask me what subject was my favorite. What an incredibly difficult question! I love connecting students with the stories they are reading. I love breaking down difficult math skills in a way...

...the world. I have taught in Hawaii, where I was born and raised, as well as in Singapore and Jordan, where I taught and learned from students from all over the Middle East and Asia. Learning goes hand in hand with teaching, and as much as I love learning, teaching has been the joy of my life. As a high school English teacher, what I most enjoy is the process of working one-on-one with my...

...different subjects, but I am really passionate about helping students improve their standardized test scores as they prepare for college. Improving SAT and ACT scores can really open doors to admission and scholarships at great schools! Currently I am a graduate student studying social work at the University of Denver. In my spare time, I can be found curled up on the couch with a good book, skiing, hiking, or cheering on my favorite sports...

...and more. My students have ranged from grades 2 through graduate school. I work with each student individually to assess their learning style.

I have a fairly flexible schedule, and I am willing to work with students to create a schedule that is convenient and effective for them. Here are a few of the things I LOVE...

...college that they were struggling in. I also have experience coaching Telemark ski racing through high school, and coaching the collegiate alpine ski racing team at CSM. I began to enjoy math, science, and physics when I was high school. I believe this happened because I had an amazing teacher that helped inspire me to learn math and physics. It is important as a tutor and teacher to explain and teach material; however, I believe...

...because of those who helped me in the past. I first began tutoring seriously in college. I began with college algebra and moved on to science courses such as chemistry, genetics, and biology. I also tutored some remedial math and english courses. No jobs other than teaching and medicine bring me everything I want in a career. I love to help others because I have benefited so much from others help in the past. My...

...We just need to find the right ways to teach them. Not every student learns in the same way, so it is up to teachers and tutors to help students discover how they learn best. It is often hard to find this out in a classroom of 25 or more students, but with a tutor, students can often find out how they can become lifelong learners and enrich their lives in the process.... I believe that...

...working, learning and living in New York City until my recent move to Colorado. For me, not every subject could be mastered with the same learning techniques and I have learned to adapt myself which I hope to teach my clients to do the same. I have a background in hospitality, public relations, occupational therapy, and marketing. Everyone has the ability to learn and try new things and with experience comes more learning and more...

...confidence. Students are dealing with enough pressure, and they don’t need confusion in school on top of that. I became a tutor so I could help students, some like me, get past that frustration and become comfortable and confident with all of their classes.
