Michael B - Clearlake Oaks, CA 95423 (9.1 mi) - Chess Tutor - $54.00/hr.

I was very successful in this position because I was willing to talk with students on the phone, meet with them after class, and even respond to their essays at length on cassette tapes--my own idea! My approach to teaching is to provide what is needed, and sometimes that is not limited to the explicit task at hand.
