Chess is one of my top subjects! I am a former Mississippi champion and have coached several teams/players who did well in national competition. I have also assisted in the teaching of and running tournaments for gifted programs in Hinds, Rankin, and Madison counties.

Math and algebra were my best subjects in high school and college. As a computer programmer, I would frequently have to solve a "word problem" before creating a program that implemented my solution. Some of my programs include a statistical analysis of traffic data, a calculation of yield to maturity of long term bonds, implementation of federal tax withholding for pension checks, a mortgage or loan program, and the creation of round robin pairing tables for chess.
I try to see what the student already knows and go from there. Of course it is important that a student get an assigned math problem correct, but it is also important that the student UNDERSTANDS why something works and how that can be applied to other problems when a tutor or teacher isn't present.

A Little Bit About Me...

I first introduce myself and get to know a little about the student I am tutoring. Then, I establish a baseline of what they have learned so that I can direct my attention to their strengths and weaknesses. Finally, I get into the material with the student and show them how and why the material is important and applicable in the world in which we live.
I have served as a substitute teacher in Hayward, CA for 1 1/2 years. I worked as a tutor for Learning & Loving It in San Jose, CA for 3 years. I served as a tutor and teacher of adult education in Loganville, GA for 1 year. I am currently on the substitute teacher roster for the Vicksburg School District, and I have been so for two years.
