About Bruce

I am eager to bring out the very best in my students, and lots of teaching in public, private, and university classrooms has taught me that each student has amazing gifts and strengths that can make learning exciting and rewarding.

I have a Bachelor in History and Political Science (Colorado College) and an MA in History (Brown University), and my wife and I have three amazing college-aged kids and two lovable (but goofy) dogs. I love running, reading, hiking in Colorado (where I live), and spending time with my family. I also love tutoring in writing, language, and strengthening how you can express yourself in general!

I believe whole-heartedly that learning everything from languages to strong writing to astrophysics must have an element of FUN! I am a seasoned teacher with 19 years experience teaching middle school, high school, freshman college-age students/adults, and feel passionate about engaging my students with the adventure of learning. "What we learn with pleasure we never forget." (Alfred Mercier)

I know learning new things, whether vocabulary and language structure to facts and formulas, can be a challenge! I use review games, connections and memory challenges, visual aids, and students' own strengths to create a friendly, engaging tutoring environment in live, online sessions. I am a seasoned teacher in essay writing (including college application essays), test-taking, history, study skills, sharpening academic strengths, and organization.

I have experience with almost all levels of learning and have my students take ownership (make learning "theirs") to bring out the best in them and me!

I hope my online per hour tutoring rate is both fair and very much earned. I've been teaching for many years, and am (clearly) not motivated by the financial reward, but by engaging, productive interactions with students...I care a lot about teaching and encouraging each student I have. Thanks!
