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.
Brenna Davis
ACT Math Tutor • +10 Subjects
Hello! I am 27 with a bubbly personality and an enthusiasm for mathematics! I have been tutoring math for 10 years now through different businesses. While I attended Drake University, I worked in the Drake Math Lab for 4 years, and I worked with a variety of students, classes, and majors. I found my love for teaching as I enjoyed working more than my classes. I graduated with a degree in Actuarial Science in May 2014 and soon after attained my Master's Degree in Secondary Math Education from Iowa State University. I get along with almost every person I meet and I can make math fun for you or your little one (or both, sit in and learn too!) I look forward to helping you!
Erinrose
Adult Literacy Tutor • +28 Subjects
I am currently pursuing my PhD in Literature/Creative Writing at the University of Denver. Prior to beginning my doctoral studies, I was a creative writing/English lecturer at Washington University in St. Louis where I completed my MFA and senior post-graduate teaching fellowship. I received my BA in Philosophy from Carleton College in 2009. Before my time in St. Louis and Denver, I taught English Literature at the Loomis Chaffee School in Connecticut and, earlier, at Germantown High School in Philadelphia. During my time at Loomis and Germantown, I taught English Lit I/III, Contemporary Literature, 10th grade grammar and expository writing seminars, Literature of the Sea, Experimental Novel, and Creative Writing. At Wash U, I taught Fiction Writing I, II, and Microfiction, and last year I facilitated pedagogy training for Wash U MFA graduate students. I currently tutor at DU's Writing Center and, beginning this fall, I will teach undergraduate fiction classes. I have a marked interest in modern and contemporary fiction, though I very much look forward to helping students with all craft/literature/essay writing/verbal test taking endeavors.
Elizabeth
Algebra Tutor • +31 Subjects
I have a Bachelor of Arts from Colorado College, where I studied both history and pre-dentistry. I will soon be pursuing a Doctor of Dental Surgery degree, as well. In my free time, I enjoy figure skating, crocheting, and reading. In addition to tutoring, I also teach group figure skating lessons. I firmly believe in the value of education and have always approached academics with enthusiasm, especially math. I have always enjoyed working with numbers, and I have always had a great appreciation for math. As a tutor, I believe that everybody learns in different ways, and I enjoy helping students identify their strengths, while striving to tailor my tutoring to fit each student’s needs. The subjects I tutor include math, English, writing, reading, French, and some science and history.

Shelly
10th Grade Math Tutor • +74 Subjects
Originally from California, I spent much of my academic career there, earning my B.A. in Psychology at San Francisco State University and starting graduate studies in Psychology (Behavioral Neuroscience focus) at Sacramento State University. Since moving to Fort Collins, Colorado in 2011, I have obtained an M.S. at Colorado State University with the focus of my studies and research being Cognitive Psychology. I have taught small labs and lecture courses at CSU for the past four years as a grad student, where the main skill objectives for the classes were: writing APA style, psychology concepts, designing and conducting research, and analyzing research using statistics. I have also had opportunities to teach high school students during a few different summer programs, teaching such topics as Sleep and Dreaming, and The Brain. I enjoy mentoring students as well and have had many discussions with undergraduate research assistants about preparing and applying for grad school, GREs, writing personal statements, etc. Outside of academia, I love to get outdoors, either hiking and climbing in the summer, or snowboarding in the winter.Thank you! I look forward to meeting and getting to know you and helping you through your studies to get you to your academic goals!
Rohith
ACT Prep Tutor • +15 Subjects
I am quite passionate about education, since I feel it is the key to any sort of satisfying life. As the saying goes, knowledge is power, and knowledge can give you comfort and help guide you through a world that is often frustrating, convoluted, and dissatisfying. I have channeled this passion into teaching astronomy, which I majored in. I also taught some history and religion topics as head of a secular club in college.
Chris
10th Grade Math Tutor • +31 Subjects
I am as passionate about the success of my students as I am the material I teach. My career is deeply rooted in science and mathematics, and I have shared this knowledge as a teacher and tutor for years, helping students improve their understanding and enjoyment of these subjects and prepare for exams. As an engineering professional, I've spent my career in aerospace, aviation, biotechnology, computer science, sensors, and laser systems and I bring the excitement of my unique career to every session to give students a picture of how they may connect the core concepts in some of their most important subjects to the rewarding challenges of real world applications.My background allows me to offer more than just a study session to someone who wants to take charge of their success. I like to build a framework of tools that students can use for their entire career, and I offer new ways of looking at old ideas. I hold a Master of Science in Physics, a Bachelor of Science in Physics and Mathematics, graduate studies in Aerospace Engineering, professional development in Business and Entrepreneurship, and years of research and development in engineering and software. I am also an FAA licensed pilot and I have flown several types of aircraft, including helicopters and fixed wing aircraft, and I'm also well versed in preparation for a career in military aviation and becoming a military officer.If you or someone you know needs help with basic subject material in physics, mathematics, other natural sciences, programming, or computer science, or if you just need help preparing for a difficult exam like the SAT, ACT, GRE, ASVAB, AFOQT, AFAST, or any portion of these tests, reach out to me. I will guide you to the success you deserve.
