Michelle M - Lodi, CA 95242 (6 mi) - Chess Tutor - $61.00/hr.
In 1995, I began my official tutoring odyssey by assisting my classmates in AP Calculus. Every day during lunch I spent my half-hour helping my fellow high school seniors succeed, ultimately achieving a 4/5 on the AP exam and guiding others to similar grades. Since those days I have tutored in-home and taught mathematics at the private secondary school level, fostering student knowledge of various concepts from arithmetic to calculus. My degree, my passion, is mathematics. My students often say I can’t be a teacher because they “just get it" when I explain. Even so, my degree is in math and I've taught professionally and privately. I have a history of maintaining high scores and would rather show why something works than how to follow steps. I don't expect students to love math or do it "my way" but I want students to know math isn't scary. To this end, I explain every step, do assessmen

Enrique L - Stockton, CA 95219 (13.6 mi) - Chess Tutor - $46.50/hr.
As a life longer, I have searched out projects that not only allow me to draw upon my current experiences while at the same time pushing and expanding my knowledge. Doing this has allowed me to tackle everything form the very basic of projects not only in computer technology but also in general labor fields. This has lead me to take on projects such as an Arcade System while a student at Heald college. I love helping people to grow their understanding and reach their full potential. Not being one to stick stricly to the book, I have often employed many hands on and lecture based training aids. The only way for a person to truly learn is from their mistakes, as such, I take care to exercise patience and understanding.

Michael B - Wilton, CA 95693 (15 mi) - Chess Tutor - $46.00/hr.
I come from a family of teachers and, like my parents, I enjoy helping others and reaching the end goal of aiding a student in attaining their own aspirations both long and short term. I understand the difficulties and frustrations that often accompany learning, however I believe that with the right positive reinforcements all students can overcome any hurdle and achieve academic success. In addition, these academic success are the kindling to creating a growing fire of self-motivation which can last a lifetime. I want to help all students in anyway possible to find the academic switch that inspires them to continue to learn and better themselves. As a recent college graduate with a BA in Spanish and a BA in International Affairs, I possess current experiences from my studies in the United States, Europe and South America.

Since graduating, I have worked with students in several meaningful ways.

Kevin F - Stockton, CA 95206 (17.2 mi) - Chess Tutor - $44.00/hr.
As a accomplished student, I realized I always had help along the help with achieving academic success. From teachers and counselors to my peers and older students. I began to help other with academics as early as the third grade, however I began to commit to tutoring in High School and continue it through-out college, in hopes to eventually becoming a teacher in the future. I believe anyone can teach a subject, having enough knowledge of a subject allows one to pass it on. However, I feel what many teachers do not do is teach students how to learn. It is in my belief that teaching students to learn enables them to think independently allowing them to become more creative rather than repetitive. So not only do I teach students the subject, I teach them how to learn and apply it to every other subject.

their desired results...., Being patient and understanding the
delicate aspects of their emotional nature...., Helping the
child to navigate the specific particulars of the subject matter
while sharing the inter-dynamics of learning...., People don't
care how much you know, until they know how much you care! I’ve learned, from my years of experience, to be detailed in my accounting work and my approach
to problem solving when a detailed approach is needed.
I developed my skills through hard work and diligence. I’ve worked , directly and indirectly, with controllers and operation
executives. I’ve worked on major computer system conversions
and business acquisitions. I was exposed to the inner-dynamics
of Public Accounting, while working with the CPA firm. This exposure has given me greater experience, and sk

I have worked with children and young people all my adult life from teaching VBS as a teenager to presently being a tutor and substitute teacher. In addition to my majors, I have minors in Greek and Western Culture. I wrote a substantial Master's Thesis. For the past 12 years I have also worked as a pastor.

In addition, I presently teach Greek and Latin, tutor students in math (pre-algebra and algebra), Latin, natural science, and writing. My approach to teaching begins with having a high expectation for what my students can accomplish. Therefore, my goal is, in part, to help my students love learning and to translate the love for learning into higher achievements. I try to inspire the students

olaoluwalotobi t - oakley, CA 94561 (28.6 mi) - Chess Tutor - $47.00/hr.
My teaching style changes with each student. My passion for teaching and working wit children is driven by the fresh way they have of looking at problems and the world around them. I like to observe first then go into speaking a language the student understands. After we immerse into conversations to get a feel of how we interpret and process information, I like to then teach in a way that they student can apply the logic of nature into problem solving. I have experience working with k-12. Along with employed tutoring, volunteering, and mentoring. I am qualified to tutor in English, math, and social studies because throughout my studies I have excelled in all three subjects and have tutored them also. I enjoy tutoring math because I get to constantly push the limits of how I can explain concepts. In English, I read lots off long books. And social studies, for the same reason as English,
