Cindy Pearson graduated at the top of her class with a M.A. in elementary education and a concentration in curriculum and instruction from the University of Colorado. She also graduated cum laude with a B.A. in geology and concentrations in dance and education from Carleton College. In addition to fourteen years of private tutoring experience, Cindy has eighteen years of classroom experience teaching students from kindergarten to eighth grade (of all levels from struggling learners to G/T learners) in both public and private schools in Colorado, Arizona, and Texas. Cindy helped design, develop and implement a middle school science curriculum and lab at a private school in Denver only one year out of her undergraduate education, and just two years after that, she became a mentor teacher in Arizona.
Cindy’s passion for teaching math and science to all ages and her love for the Golden community led her to start Golden Tutoring and Enrichment, LLC and design the MATHrive™ Workshops in January of 2012 which ran through 2018. She and several of her colleagues also co-designed Golden Tutoring’s Summer Boost Camp in 2012 and then SAT/ACT Prep Workshops and Literacy Launch™ Workshops in 2016. Cindy loves sharing her love of learning and teaching with her local community and is thrilled that local grants through Golden Schools Foundation, Ride the Rockies, and Golden Civic Foundation enabled Golden Tutoring to bring MATHrive™ Workshops to children who might otherwise not have the opportunity to participate. Golden Tutoring has also offered full and partial scholarships to high school juniors who want to attend the Winter SAT Prep Workshops and need financial assistance to do so.
Cindy has exceptionally strong skills in differentiation, math enrichment and skill development, math and science curriculum design, individualized instruction, and classroom management. Additionally, she has a strong understanding of different learning styles, needs, and abilities. Cindy enjoys volunteering at her teenagers’ high school and in her community by being a board member of Lakewood High School Foundation and the organizer of a 5K as well as an active member of the PTSA. Cindy also enjoyed being a board member of Golden Schools Foundation for five years. In her free time, she loves to take dance classes, explore the great outdoors, and travel with her family.
Cindy is always focused on offering top-notch, affordable, engaging, and effective tutoring to students in Golden and west Denver. She is also currently exploring ways to offer free tutoring to families in need. As a mom and a former teacher, Cindy is committed to paying her team’s talented tutors what they deserve while keeping costs affordable for families. As a visionary and problem solver, she is committed to being receptive, creative, flexible, innovative, and dedicated to her clients, tutors, and community. She loves what she does and is passionate about helping her community’s students feel academically engaged and supported.
