My comments on tutoring Chess : I have been a chess player since age 7 - I am rated at 1850. I love to play and teach the game!

I have been teaching college (History, Philosophy, Ethics, writing, reading, social studies) since the early 1980's. I have taught in New York (LaGuardia Community College), Connectiuct (Three Rivers Community College), New Jersey (Mercer County Community College) and Pennsylvania (Bucks County and Montgomery County Community Colleges and ). I have also taught online (University of Phoenix, DeVry University and The Iowa Consortium of Community Colleges). I have tutored many college and high school students, as well as grammar school students. I have taught several test preparation classes and helped many students to raise their test scores.
In my experience, the majority of students are highly motivated. This is, for me, the key to success. However, very often, students require assistance with a wide range of ‘remediation’ in many of life’s basic competencies: a skill set that incl ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

The thinking and learning processes were always intriguing to me. I am very inquisitive and cannot stop until I understand how things tick. However, patience and comprehension are certainly big parts of me as a person. This is why tutoring is a very fulfilling experience. Being part of how young and/or elder people improve not only their analytical and cognitive skills, but also their self esteem is so satisfying. The latter, is most likely what will help them to face and deal with future academic, and personal problems. Besides, tutoring not only helps people individually, but eventually, it helps to improve society as a whole.
As my parents always told me, I believe that education is a transcendent part of everybody's lives. I have earned a BS in Biochemical Engineering, and almost a BS in Apply Mathematics, at Rutgers University. Since I was in my native country I had a very cle ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Having to live and work in a real world outside of educational system and academia has given me valuable experience, and a new appreciation for applicability of subjects I teach and tutor. As a licensed pilot I found a new meaning for knowledge physics and mathematics, which are essential in flight planning. As a real estate professional, I realized that you may have a good product but if you don't know how to package it, your clients will bring their business elsewhere. The same goes for tutoring - if you are a knowledgeable tutor, but your presentation is sub par, the students will not be satisfied. Having said all this, I believe it is also important to have the basic training and credentials to be an effective educator.mathematics I am available to tutor Biology, and Physics at High School and College level.
I try to excite my student's interest about a topic before teachin ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

As a student who has dabbled in so many areas, it is easy for me to assess when a teacher/professor is not explaining a concept in a method that helps the students. I have previous experience tutoring, but my teaching talent comes from my role as the unofficial tutor for most of my classes. I can see why students are missing the concept and I am creative enough to devise new approaches.
I am a successful graduate of Susquehanna University, having earned a BA in International Studies. This study of cultural anthropology allowed me ample experience with writing, grammar, and research. I will be attending Rutgers University next year to earn a Master of Science degree in Microbiology. I am very experienced in the subjects of Biology, Chemistry, and Math on all levels. In addition to my devotion to the sciences, I have maintained an advanced-conversational level of fluency in French an ... read more

I have a range of experiences which help make me a superior candidate to tutor. I have lived and studied in Barcelona, Spain. During this experience I learned a lot about Spanish culture and brought my Spanish to a mastery level. I lived with a host family which gave me the opportunity to become more involve with Spanish culture and their traditions. Upon returning from Spain, I finished my degree at SUNY Oswego with two semesters of student teaching.
I have a very unique teaching style in that I like to incorporate many different presentation methods and I am a firm believer of teaching to multiple intelligences. No two students learn the same way and if the student is not learning the teacher is just as responsible as the student. This being said I have used many different teaching methods from having the students performing, and singing to setting up shops to buy and sell produc ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

Teaching is not a profession for me, it is a passion and I enjoy teaching particularly young children. To me basically all children are keen learners, but different children have different ways of learning. In fact they need guidance rather than teaching to get a hold on the subject matter. Some of them may be slow starters, but if only they find some one guiding them according to their pace and style, I believe every one can excel without exception. Every child has his potential and one has to tap it. Having been an assessor of personalities, I love interacting with the youngsters and would like to be their guide and friend rather than a teacher so that I can make a difference in their lives.

More About This Tutor...

The task is to create relevancy in a lesson plan. In order to bring relevancy to a topic teachers must be willing/able to determine each student's individual learning style. Not everyone learns the same way. Therefore, not everyone should be taught the same way. It is important to know the strengths, weakness, and interests of a student in order to create connections with the material, delivery, and instructor.
My first experience teaching was as a counselor at an ESL Summer Academy. After graduating, in 2008, I accepted a position as an instructional assistant at a High School in Storrs, Connecticut. When the school year ended, I was offered a contract to work as an English Teacher at an Academy in Korea! I have also been coaching male and female hockey players ages 4-20 since 2003. In addition to my professional experience in education and coaching I have extensive academ ... read more
