Greg V. - Liberty Lake, WA 99019 (32 mi) - Chess Tutor - $32.50/hr.
It has been my experience that integrating the various teaching approaches that research has shown to be effective gets consistent results across student groups. However, I have also found that hands on learning seems to lead to high efficacy in real world work related tasks as opposed to a strictly theoretical approach. I believe deeply in the power of education to change lives, which is why I have dedicated my life to this purpose. I spent 5 years as a teacher and coach in the country of Vietnam. During this time I taught English as a second language, coached soccer and chess, and launched a sports training business during which time I trained all staff on work processes and procedures.
I have returned to the United States to complete a secondary teaching certificate in the subject areas of Business, Marketing, and History as well as a master's degree in education with an emphasis o

James D - Spokane, WA 99205 (17.8 mi) - Chess Tutor - $35.50/hr.
I am the son of two teachers. I was raised around teaching and it is simply in my blood. I love the teaching in the classroom, I love teaching individual students, I love teaching. Not only do I have a passion to teach, I also have the knowledge and the ability to do so and to make it relevant. I find that students learn better when they see how the material relates to their lives. They want to know why it matters. I strive to show students the reasons for learning things and at the same time I teach the material. I believe that if you can show a student how the material is relevant to them, they can not help but be interested and thus excel. I have worked with students of all ages in a variety of scenarios, but my most recent experience is teaching as an adjunct professor at Eastern Washington University. My course was "History 110: The American Experience." I had 52 students and we met

James K - Spokane, WA 99210 (21.1 mi) - Chess Tutor - $36.50/hr.
My last class was a self-contained 6th grade, with a 34% ELL and 14% special education population. My class average reading level rose from 4.6 to 7.1. Of all the students in the school who surpassed the required State testing and higher District goals in both reading and math, 75% came from my class, as did the winners of the school's essay contest, spelling bee and geography competition.
My first career was in medicine where I gave direct care, taught military/civilian classes and participated extensively in research, gaining a deep understanding of science biology and chemistry and human A&P. I integrate as many subjects as possible and seek to provide the missing schema, background experience and knowledge, that is critical to learning to a true state of understanding and mastery. Every subject is interesting to a child who can understand it and apply it. Through an unde

John B - Newport, WA 99156 (24.1 mi) - Chess Tutor - $43.00/hr.
I started teaching in 1970 as a K-8 substitute, continuing until being hired by a private school in 1975. I then taught full time in East LA. Upon moving to Wa. and being certified here, I taught in several schools in differing cultural settings untill recently starting my own business in Newport. I have also tutored and graded math praxis. I enjoy working with children and get a kick from seeing a discovery or understanding in a students eyes. I've had the opportunity to collect numerous bio. samples for hands on experience. I have also taken workshops in the workings of google earth as a teaching tool along with mapping and watershed principles.I feel I have benn successful in elightening many student's lives.

Patrick R - Spokane Valley, WA 99206 (26 mi) - Chess Tutor - $37.50/hr.
My master's thesis was on computer-based training. My experience includes teaching end users and other trainers (train the trainer). Classroom training subjects have included using software programs, developing online documentation, writing skills, communications training, policies and so on.
Past clients have been Blue Cross Blue Shield, U.S. Navy, Chevron and many more. Further, I have mentored co-workers in the past and enjoy one-on-one coaching very much. My approach is to incorporate multiple learning styles (visual, auditory and so on). I also like to incorporate skills training as part of a scenario when possible. Using techniques like appropriate background music, brief stretch breaks, having the children read to Sierra, my golden retriever, are all techniques that I would like to use.
Teaching children would be a joy and very rewarding. I had trouble learning to read whe

I have recently have earned a BS degree in Electrical Engineering and a minor in Mathematics in DEC 2009. I have helped and still currently tutor my younger brother through his calculus courses. I work very well in teaching and working with others. I have taught martial arts self defense and discipline for over 10 years in Wind Fist Kung Fu as an instructor. I am very ambitious and I look forward to tutoring students in the subjects of pre-algebra, algebra, geometry, trigonometry, pre-calculus, calculus, calculus II, and physics. I am also willing to tutor college students pursuing EE degrees in the courses of basic electronics, circuit theory, and controls. I love teaching, and I strongly believe that teaching is the student's assistance of discovery. Any student can learn what they put their heart into, and all they need is motivation. I love to motivate and help students to be excited
