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

Thomas S - Little Egg Harbor, NJ 08087 (30.9 mi) - Chess Tutor - $44.50/hr.
I have over twenty years teaching in the public and private schools in New Jersey. I have taught English, Math, Social Studies, and Business. I am a NJ state certified teacher in elementary and secondary education and recently completed my special education certification so that students requiring special educational accommodations can be properly recognized and taught.
I have earned a BA in Education, a BS in Business Administration and two Masters Degrees. My teaching style is focused on student achievement. Many parents complain that their child does poorly on tests. This is often a result of inadequate teaching practices which fail to recognize individual learning differences in students. My goal in teaching is to individualize the learning process for each student, so that the student understands and retains knowledge and is able to explain what they learned. This pro

Matt C - Trenton, NJ 08620 (31.9 mi) - Chess Tutor - $51.00/hr.
The role of an instructor is provide some structure in class, but allow students enough flexibility in order to accommodate a number of different learning styles.
There is usually more than one way to solve a problem, especially in rhetoric, composition and literature. My goal is to provide students with the tools necessary to effectively express themselves, and help them find their own path to success. I have a wealth of experience both teaching and tutoring. Since 2005, I have been an adjunct instructor of writing, English composition, and journalism at Burlington County College. Earlier I spent a year in Poland and Greece respectively teaching English as a foreign language to both teenagers and adults. While earning my bachelors in English literature I was also an English and writing skills tutor at Stockton College's Writing Center.

Amanda A - New Brunswick, NJ 08901 (33.3 mi) - Chess Tutor - $48.50/hr.
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 and an a

Roberto G - North Brunswick, NJ 08902 (33.6 mi) - Chess Tutor - $48.50/hr.
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 clear goa

aleksandr z - Brooklyn, NY 11204 (35.5 mi) - Chess Tutor - $50.00/hr.
In my 10 years of tutoring experience, I worked with more than 100 students from many different backgrounds and countries, which exposed me to different ways that students learn. Some did not know English, others were used to different alphabets and calculating systems. I believe that key to teaching is care, patience and motivation. In my classes, I use a variety of styles; I am trying to be as descriptive as possible utilizing my superb graphic skills and trying to relate to everyday’s life. For me the most important thing is teaching a student how to think in a methodological way.
With my system, my students develop their own learning techniques and take control of their studying. As a fourth generation college graduate, I was driven to achieve a high level of excellence in education to continue my family tradition of graduating with honors. I have earned a 5 year B.

Michael W - morrisville, NY 13408 (35.8 mi) - Chess Tutor - $46.00/hr.
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 products. If

That is, the discovery process of finding out what motivates individual students to achieve, finding methods to feed positive energy to the classroom dynamics, learning what makes students feel good about reaching for a higher level of thought; th
