I believe in teaching in a relaxed and positive atmosphere that supports students' growth.

Local Chess Tutor - $20/hr

I learned chess very young but didn't start really getting into it until the first day of high school. My homeroom teacher had a chess board on his desk and asked me to play; I accepted his challenge and he then only took 4 moves to put me in checkmate. Three months later, i was finally able to beat him after heavy amounts of practice and lots of games with online opponents along with my fellow classmates. A couple months after that, with the same amount of practice, I could beat him without a problem. I constantly preach this anecdote because it shows that it doesn't matter where you start or how good you are at something, you can accomplish great things if you put your mind to it and practice, practice, practice! Of course, it's always easier to have a tutor or coach to guide you along the way to teach you right from wrong and show you what to practice, just as a teacher would make you ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I believe that the most effective teacher is one who guides the students to finding the correct answers. Instead of simply giving out answers, a teacher should encourage students and help them along the process for them to find out the solutions on their own. By overseeing this learning process and helping along the way, the teacher ensures that the student will learn that they are capable of learning the material and further increase their confidence in academics.
I obtained a strong liberal arts education where I was able to experience and learn about a wide range of academic topics. However, I have a strong focus and specialization in the sciences with a BA in both Biology and Chemistry with a Mathematics minor. Math and science has been a strong area of mine, as I was a Supplemental Instructor for a genetics course for two semesters, as well as being a Laboratory Assistant that ... read more

Obtaining a Masters degree in Mechanical Engineering has exposed me to advanced courses of Math and Science, two subjects which have always fascinated me. I have pursued and achieved excellence in these areas all through my school years and my post graduation career as an industrial engineer has only advanced my knowledge in these areas. English language has been a strong interest of mine since an early age and I have actively cultivated that interest. My reading, writing and grammatical skills have only improved over the years with all the reports, theses and presentations that I had prepared during the course of my education. I have previous and current experience of tutoring students in Math, English and Science.
As a recipient of higher levels of education, I know the career opportunities that such an education opens up later in life. And I am motivated to share my knowledge an ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a teacher, I feel that my mastery of content and skills help students to not only learn to the best of their ability, but learn through a variety of learning styles. I help students become motivated and interested in all topics I bring to the classroom, which gives each of them an opportunity to contribute and participate throughout each lesson. My ability to differentiate and modify lessons to reach each child is another strong point in my teaching. I feel that everyone can learn, and with modifications where needed, all will succeed in the classroom. Finally, through collaboration with fellow staff and with the resource available, I can find a way to help all students when they need extra help.
In the past four years, as a substitute teacher, I have instructed a wide variety of grade levels and subjects, including non-core subjects. I have also, monitored progress of assi ... read more

I come from a large family of teachers, so teaching and mentoring students is in my blood. Receiving help with homework and research was always a top priority for my parents. The key component that my parents have passed along to me, regarding teaching, is patience. As someone who was diagnosed with A.D.D. as a child, I know the importance of patience in terms to the success of learning, and that not everyone understands concepts the same way. My job is to make these new concepts easy to understand and fun to learn about at the same time. I want to let the student know that I can relate to their problems, having gone through some of them myself as a child.
As a holder of two Journalism degrees I have been through the extensive rigors of college and know what it takes to get assignments done properly and haned in on time. I feel that the experience of having just been in c ... read more
