Experienced, Patient, Versatile Tutor

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.

Chess is one of my top subjects!

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.

Better academics combined with more fun is the goal.

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.
I consider it my duty to do what it takes to make the tutoring FUN for the person being tutored.

Mostly I prefer relating abstract concepts to everyday life. I believe if a student can parallel course material with events that occur in his or her life then he or she will always remember the concept and have a deeper understanding of it.

I totally believe in having thorough knowledge of the required subject prior to teaching. I also enjoy working with children. I am a father of two young children (ages 10 months and 7 years), and I enjoy taking the time to cultivate their ability to read and comprehend.
As a former active duty Army soldier and non-commissioned officer with over 20 years experience, I have taught and trained military personnel in various technical fields and specialty areas.

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 during the learning path, is a blessing! I have been blessed to teach students of all grade levels (PK-College) and have tutored students from ages 5 to 25.
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 se ... read more

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. As a father I know children are quick learners and absorb information very readily but only when it suits them. Therefore I tailor my approach to be as individualized as possible resulting in a one-on-one style that encourages and promotes success through learning.

i enjoy sharing my knowledge with others. In order to do that I make use of all resources available to me including: various forms of technology, websites, and ideas from other knowledgable teachers. Every child has their own unique learning style and it is up to the educator to deliver the material in a way that the child can understand the concept and then be able to apply the newly learned material. I have used direct instruction, modeling, large group, partnerships and small cooperative groups in the classroom with success. I utilize Vinn Diagrams; Read, Talk, Write & Check strategy; KWL Charts and projects to assure student understanding of a concept or idea.

I enjoy teaching children the fundamental aspects of any subject, and delight in witnessing the brightening of that child's comprehension of the subject. I am a firm believer that every child harbors their own level of 'genius', and is capable of learning to their maximum potential. I believe every child deserves a chance to achieve at the height of their capability, provided they are given the chances and the educational tools for success in an encouraging, nurturing environment. I hope that the remainder of my career is utilized as the impetus for those achievements.
