However, those individuals did not know that someone out there was looking for a person with their skill set, did not know how to get started as a tutor, and did not realize that they could make a true career out of being a professional tutor.I have also found that students do not realize that a tutor is not just for people who are falling behind in a course. That quality tutoring can help them expand their knowledge of a subject that they already excel at, and help them go beyond not just get by. What often time holds back students beyond that is they don't know where to begin to look for tutoring. Many schools do not offer a quality list of tutors, especially at the university level where everything is siloed by department. The math department often has a tutor list, but what about accounting or some extremely specific course for just your major.Need a tutor. Find a Tutor.Can you tutor. Be a Tutor.

Believe me, AP Calculus really does not have to be that bad.In my 25 years of tutoring students in AP Calculus, I have seen the use of very heavy math language used in the teaching of calculus is sometimes the biggest barrier to students' learning and understanding.I have worked hard to cut through all of that math speak.My goal is to make the language of AP Calculus accessible to everyone.

I have run CSUMathTutor.com since I was in college at Colorado State University. I specialize in the math courses taught at Colorado State University, but have helped K-12 students from 3rd grade through AP-Calculus.My familiarity and experience with a variety of math courses allows me to personalize the teaching experience of each student. I work with students to not only teach them the math they need to know, but also provide them the positive encouragement they need to walk into a math class with confidence.I provide private one-one-one tutoring, group tutoring, and provide video tutorials for certain courses.

I developed and taught a math enhancement program for high school students from Brush, CO. The program was developed with a grant as a part of the Colorado Opportunity Scholarship Initiative. The purpose of the program is to work with students who struggle with math and assist them in removing math as a barrier.The program I developed included a summer enrichment class, after school peer tutoring, online private tutoring, and ACT/SAT prep classes. The summer enrichment classes were held twice a week for three hours through the entire summer. The classes included some lecture to reinforce core math skills (order of operations, fractions, area, volume) and important math subjects for high school students (linear equations, word problems, probability). They then had the students work on worksheets together as small groups and then share their solutions with the larger group. We also provided time for them to work on core math skills that were gaps in their knowledge.The after school peer tutoring had the students who performed well over the summer volunteer as peer tutors after school for students from the summer courses. This allowed students to learn and teach each other. As well as building the confidence of students who performed well over the summer by rewarding them with additional responsibility to their community.Online tutoring was offered for all students to get additional assistance with their regular math school work. The addition of online tutoring allowed students who had other after school activities (clubs, sports, jobs, family)to receive additional math assistance in the evenings after their other activities were complete.Finally, to help demystify the ACT and SAT tests, I held after school math prep programs for these exams. During these sessions students would work through sample problems and share solutions with the larger group. This was a great way to get them reading and starting to understand how these tests like to form questions.
