At this point in time, I’ve decided to change careers and will be obtaining my teaching certification in the fall. I would love to utilize my Spanish language skills and extend my services to those in need of some help.

"Chess lessons" are usually just that, chess lessons. I think that there are more dynamics to teaching chess than just moving the pieces. Most chess lessons for beginners, start with an introduction to chess. I teach this way too, but everything I am able to teach starts with respect. Every person should understand and accept that they will not always win. They must also accept that they may not always play their best. They must also respect their opponent. So often chess "coaches" forget about these key elements and life lessons. Tradition and culture are important to me and my style of teaching. With these few elements, learning is fun and the teaching is effective. Prime teaching focuses are: 1) Introduction to chess a) Learning the chess board b) Getting to know the pieces 2) Tactics a) Purposes of each piece b) Discovery 3) Strategy a) Opening Principals b) O

I have 27 years of painting and teaching experience. I am an Assistant Professor at MCC whre I teach in Health Education. I have taught in numerous places and with numerous populations including at BOCES, Penfield and Perinton Recreation Dept's, Michaels Crafts, Catholic Family Center, and currently at my own studio (Hope In Art Studio, Frpt NY). I am a relaxed teacher. I love to help student's explore what they'd like to learn or paint. I offer as much or as little direction as a student needs. I like to challenge my students to paint works that may be just a bit beyond what they think they are capable of because they always surprise themselves. Painting is nourishing. It is a privilege to teach and watch how it enriches lives!

I began tutoring when I was attending Florida State University. I worked as a teaching assistant from 2004-2005 for biology 1 and biology 2. Through this experience, I learned that I enjoy tutoring and that I am skilled at explaining tricky concepts in a way that is easy to learn and remember. I helped my friends and classmates with their coursework in medical school as well. I am taking some time off from school for personal reasons including needing time to recover from a near-fatal car accident. I have been tutoring independently off and on for the last year and a half through Wyzant.com and other websites. Comments and compliments from students that I have worked with can be viewed on my profile at http://www.wyzant.com/Tutors/nikkisciencemath.

I'm a recent college grad, having studied to be a science and math high school teacher. I've done time as a teacher's aid and have been tutoring my classmates for years, so now I'm starting to branch out a bit. My primary areas of focus are high school and junior high math and science, particularly earth science, astronomy, and biology, as well as adolescent psychology, but I'll freely admit that I'm a geek, and I love reading about just about anything, so I've taken classes and read books on everything from history to literature to computer science and more. I'm friendly, enthusiastic, and I've found that my English language training really helps when it comes to finding a way to explain a subject to someone in a way that they can understand.

I teach according to the style that best works for the child, and I take the first couple of tutoring sessions to figure out a child's strengths, weaknesses, interests, and most effective learning style. Regardless of style, however, I believe that a multisensory approach to teaching is best for a child, as it allows teachers to tap into areas of strength of which the student may not be aware. I feel that it is essential to develop a strong rapport with a student in order for positive learning to take place. I also make sure that when I teach a specific subject that I have all the knowledge and tools that are necessary to develop a child's maximum learning potential, and if I feel I need more tools and knowledge, I delve into additional resources. I work as a team player with the student, parent, and any other person who the parent wishes to involve in order to take into account the chi
