I am particularly looking for younger students, ranging from completely new to chess or the beginner looking to make advancements to the next level. I am prepared to offer the student plenty of my time and dedication; I will teach them the rules, standard opening theory, endgame theory, tactical concepts, and of course strategy in the middlegame. I will present them with grandmaster games, and show them the winning logic behind moves. If they wish, I will be glad to review and analyze any games that they played with them and optionally with computer assistance. Hello, my name is Alan Reyes.

have been tutoring for many years. I tutored students of Math especially. All my students,passed their tests successfully, with no exceptions. Moreover, they all left me equipped with good problem-solving tools that have served them in their future careers. I am sensitive to the specific strengths and weaknesses of each individual student, and I expect the maximum from each. It will be fun working together. But it will require effort. I deeply believe that success earned by sweat is the most important gratification in one's life. Usually the student's motivation for the tutoring is the desire to succeed in a test. But I understand the learning experience as a long-time investment, from which the student will continue to benefit throughout life.

I consider it my duty to do what it takes to make the tutoring FUN for the person being tutored. I have helped friends (and their children) to prepare for exams since when in high school I won various awards for my performance on exams. I won the top score for the Regents exam for Duval County in 1971 and for this I was recognized by the downtown Rotary Club. Also I won the top statewide scholarship award for the Chamber of Commerce and for the N.H.S. due to performance on exams. Also I won the Merit Scholarship award. I have only recently started to do tutoring for pay. Over the years I have helped my children, my grandchildren, and friends and others to prepare for exams ranging from kindergarten phonics up to and beyond SAT exams.

Hands on teaching and kinesthetic learning are key to success in my mind. I love to involve the student's entire body in the learning process. From their senses to their movements to memory device techniques in the form of song or poem, using alternative methods of teaching seems more effective in the learning process. As a Cum Laude graduate from the University of Florida, I continue to hold a high level of discipline in every aspect of life. Whether it be at work, at home, or at school, I feel it is imperative to do your best no matter what the situation. Upon graduation at the age of twenty, I began teaching undergraduate courses for UF. This was an honor, but it was not challenging enough. It was not until I helped students with severe mental and physical disabilities that I felt fulfilled in my profession. Being able to teach student who are eager to learn, but have obstacles

I am currently completing my internship for my Music Education degree from the University of North Florida. I am specializing in teaching elementary age students and I have already completed two pre-internships for my degree in elementary schools. During my degree I had the opportunity to tutor elementary students in reading at Woodland Acres Elementary. I conducted my two pre-internships at Joseph Finnegan and John E. Ford elementary schools. I worked as a substitute teacher in Duval county for the springs semester of 2008. I have experience in low-income schools and I have seen the need these students have for extra attention. I believe in making learning fun. Young students need to be constantly engaged during the leaning process. All children have the capacity for success and as a teacher its my job to give them the scaffolding they need to achieve it. If a student starts wit

I began my teaching career as a writing/reading tutor while attending Ramapo College of New Jersey. During this time I was working in the English Lab, and was responsible for helping students improve their skills in researching and writing essays, compositions and research papers. After graduating from Ramapo, I entered the field of aviation, where I earned a certificate as a Certified Flight Instructor. I have been teaching various aviation related subjects for over 5 years. Most recently, I have been living in Daegu, South Korea teaching English as a Second Language to Korean students between the ages of 6 and 18. I consider myself easy going and fun. In my experience as a teacher, I find that the most effective results come through what might be called "gentle guidance" rather than a more dictatorial style of teaching. I believe that children love to learn new things and are curious b

I have earned both a MA and a BS in Urban and Regional Studies from Minnesota State University. I spent 15 years working in local government management. Throughout my career, I have taken opportunities to hire and mentor graduate student interns. Several of these interns have gone on to successful careers in local government management and planning. Recently, I was accepted into the Educator Preparation Institute at St Johns River Community College. This semester, I am taking four classes, including Classroom Management, Instructional Strategies, Teaching and Learning Process, and Technology. I have received a passing score on the 6-12 Social Studies exam. Upon completion of the EPI program, I plan to teach high school social studies.

I hold an AA in Liberal Arts with emphasis on computer science. I am currently in pursuit of BS in Biomedical at the University of North Florida. As a result I am well versed in most areas of general education. My mathematic skills are well honed; my scientific knowledge covers biology, chemistry, physics and technology. In addition, I am able to write effectively, clearly and correctly. I was a member of the honors program Edison College and now also at UNF. I have developed a love of learning that coincides with a love of teaching. I have an intuitive grasp of what an instructor is trying to accomplish. As a result I know how to target the key concepts in a way that combines the key ideas with peripheral ideas to produce not only a better grade, but a better understanding of the material.
