Martin B - Kailua Kona, HI 96740 (36.8 mi) - Chess Tutor - $55.00/hr.
My passion for the outdoors informs my teaching style. I think that experience and discovery are the best ways to learn and try to give learning experiences that foster wonder and curiosity. Education needs to be engaging for learning to happen. It is best when lessons are augmented with games, skits, presentations, art or field trips. Information needs to be presented to students in ways they can absorb it, and I work patiently and enthusiastically with many different types of learners. I love learning, and I want to inspire you to a lifetime of learning. I am an enthusiastic teacher with a diverse background who loves teaching and learning. I’m ready to help you excel at your studies, especially in the sciences, English, or math.
I earned a bachelor’s degree from Whitman College. Whitman strives to give students a broad-based education with a strong foundation in oral and written com

Lance T - Kailua Kona, HI 96740 (36.9 mi) - Chess Tutor - $46.50/hr.
I recently graduated with my Master's degree in Social Welfare from the University of California at Berkeley, and earned my first graduate degree in 1997 at the University of California at Los Angeles in Education. I taught 2nd grade in a bilingual Spanish classroom from 1996 to 2000 for the Los Angeles Unified School District. I also taught English to high school students for the Peace Corps in Nicaragua. I have studied foreign languages and speak Spanish and Portuguese fluently, and also speak some French and Japanese. Due to my past education, work experience, and time spent abroad, I am comfortable tutoring language arts, the social sciences, basic math, reading, Spanish, Portuguese, and French. During my Master's program at UCLA, I was exposed to different ways of teaching and believe that students learn in a variety of ways. I am open to trying different approaches and methods

Jordan L - Kailua-Kona, HI 96740 (41.2 mi) - Chess Tutor - $47.00/hr.
My college experience was unique to the learning community. Instead of theorizing and contemplating what lives the subjects we studied were living, we lived amongst those most only read about. In addition to traditional bouts of homework and exams I lived in the homes and attended their schools. The philosophy, language and religions they lived became our texts. During which I spent an extended amount of time learning about Japanese culture, their language and their traditions.
In Japan I was able to pick up a majority of their spoken and written language, which inevitably assisted me in completing an unprecedented study of the Chinese in Japan. The multiple discipline study allows me to share those subjects with my students. My strategy to learning unknown subjects is very close to the same way children learn to walk, by immersion. Everything we learned as children was assimilated thr

Katherine H - Pahoa, HI 96778 (43.1 mi) - Chess Tutor - $44.00/hr.
In 2003 I traveled to India where I began work in a village in the South teaching English and Sociology to 4-11th graders. The experience was incredibly rewarding and was a wonderful vision into the complexities of education and culture. Due to this multi cultural experience I feel that I have a great skill in reaching students with multi ethnic backgrounds, and understand the discrepencies between written and spoken language. I feel that in teaching my goal is to effectively reach all children. Individual care and attention are the most effective ways which I feel a child can be persuaded to learn. I take pride in being patient and think that every child has brilliance to show, they just show their skills at different and varying degrees.

Edward C - Pahoa, HI 96778 (45.1 mi) - Chess Tutor - $45.00/hr.
My career in education began while attending CSUN. I started as a paraprofessional at a charter school, and also was able to teach my own elective classes. I graduated with a BA in Deaf Studies, with a concentration in Language and Culture. After moving to northern California, I worked at a college as an ASL interpreter. I went on to teach ASL at a private High School in San Francisco for 3 years. I am currently teaching Deaf students at the high school level. My educational background and specialty is primarily Deaf Ed. and ASL, however, I have a well-rounded knowledge of various subjects that I have used in education over the last 6 years. My passion is to teach and work with students of all levels and ages. Being and ASL teacher I must be dynamic and engaging as the instructor. From my experience I have learned different ways to interact with students to keep them interested in

Nicholas B - Hilo, HI 96720 (49 mi) - Chess Tutor - $47.50/hr.
Though I received my degree last June, most of my teaching experience came while I was still learning. In high school, I worked as a museum docent for after-school programs - at one point trying to convince 3rd graders that M.C. Escher's life and work were as exciting as the afternoon TV they were missing. While in college, I worked for Apple computer, teaching adults in one-on-one tutoring sessions in computer usage. My method of studying for my finals was to show up to study groups not to learn the answers, but to reinforce my own learning by explaining the relevant topics to my peers. After graduating, I worked for at Apple full time before moving to the Big Island and working various jobs, most recently for a tour company. Much of my teaching style I learned while at Apple Computer in one on one computer teaching sessions. I tend to be a very enthusiastic and encouraging anyway, but
