Chess Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Columbus, OH

Approximately an 1800 Elo player I offer a comprehensive and effective teaching method that will help the learner thoroughly understand the material, not simply memorizing it. My teaching consists of critical thinking and logical reasoning. I am excellent at taking in and processing information and then fluently teaching others that same information in a way they can fully understand it. In High School, I taught many students in my chemistry class how to thoroughly understand the material. I have effectively taught and trained others the game of chess.

I believe that all children should receive the extra help that they need. Often time in the classroom, a teacher does not have the time to give the support of the needs of each student in the classroom. Teachers and tutors should try their best to make sure they focus on individual needs of the students so that they can help them succeed. As a recent college graduate, I feel that I have received the formal training necessary to become a teacher. I have obtained a BS in Early Childhood Education. Over the past two years I have also spent time tutoring elementary school children in the subject of reading, and also spent about 3 months working one on one with various students in a nearby school district.

I believe that a student can learn any subject or topic that they put enough effort into. For some, it is difficult to put in effort into some topics because they think "Oh I'll never get this in a million years!" My focus on tutoring kids is to improve their self-esteem by breaking down examples into smaller pieces and walking through them in a step-by-step manner. It is often that all a student needs to understand concepts are just different examples than what they are presented in class, or the subject matter explained in different terms. Because of my research experience I am also able to provide students with examples on how the topics relate to real life experiences. I recently graduated from the Ohio State University with a BS in Microbiology. During my time at OSU I tutored both my peers and underclassman in classes ranging from biology, microbiology, chemistry, and various

Prior to graduating from the Ohio State University with a degree in World Economics & Business, I interned with the Godman Guild Association. Working for the Youth and Family Services department, I collaborated with counselors in an after-school mentoring program designed to promote self-sufficiency and leadership development for 100-plus underprivileged teens. My most recent position as an English Teaching Assistant in France enhanced my communication skills ten-fold. This experience taught me to effectively convert difficult subject matter into simple and comprehensible explanations which could be understood by educationally-diverse groups of students. I love teaching and working with children of all backgrounds and age levels. I would say my main quality is the ability to connect with students in fun and interesting ways to get the subject matter across.

After graduating from the University of Toledo with a B.S., I used the math classes that I took to help tutor kids in the Columbus, OH area in basic math and algebra. I am currently taking extra classes in communication and writing. For the last ten years I've been working with others writing screenplays dealing with the creative side of other's perspectives. With my personality, I love being around children and helping them with any problems whether it be in school or general problems they are going through. Normally, this takes investing time into not only the child, but the family, to see what the kids like and why. When looking back to when I was in school, although I had a natural talent for math I feel that the classes that I did the best in were the ones that the teachers would build a relationship with me. Although I was never overly interested in english or computers in H.S., I

I truly love the field of education. I recognize that all students learn in different ways. I know certain teaching methods work for some students and not others. It is important to teach in several different styles. I have earned my Bachelor's degree in Family and Consumer Sciences with an emphasis in Elementary Education. During my undergraduate studies, I was a substitute teacher for Delaware Community Schools in Muncie, IN. I have also tutored at Huntington Learning Center. I am currently working towards earning my Master's in Early Childhood Education.

I have enjoyed teaching tennis classes and do so mainly by explanation and examples. I show an example of the process completely through and then break down the process into parts, showing each part in slow motion and then once the pieces are grasped by the student, blend them back into one smooth motion. I have learned the most from my teachers and professors by using this process. This can be tranlated into any math or science curriculum. I have the greatest desire to see my students succeed and have the patience necessary to acheive those goals. As an experienced engineer, part of my responsibilities were to set up an instructional programs for teaching operators test procedures and maintenance personel new and existing processes operations and procedures for manufacturing and maintaining the production equipment.

I have been a working graphic designer for most of my life after graduation from Ohio State. After 12 years of design I was asked to participate in an art and education program at Chicago Public Schools Autism Program. I was hired on the spot and then continued with education by obtaining a masters degree in special education in Tempe Arizona. In Arizona I was assigned as an inclusion teacher for 9, 10 11th grade English. I had to accommodate diverse learners and plan instruction. I hold a valid Arizona Cross Catagorical Special Education Certificate that expires August 2013 I can identify students problems in learning and can accommodate and modify curriculum so diverse learning can understand grade level state standards. Each student will have a unique set of circumstances that make their learning style different. I am adept at finding that learning style or block to learning
