Chess Tutors & Teachers for Lessons, Instruction or Help in Athena, OR

I received a teaching certificate in college through an internship in Buenos Aires where I taught English. At the University of Virginia, I tutored international graduate students. I worked with elementary children who had reading and behavioral difficulties through a volunteer program. I have tutored many children in French. I lived in France during high school, and have since then dedicated myself to languages. I received a BA in comparative literature which is a study of French and Spanish literature. I believe languages are full of life. Although grammar is important and necessary, it should not be stale. I think it is essential to maintain the vibrancy of a language with exciting materials, like magazines and games. I also listen carefully to the student to learn what they will find most interesting; a discussion of French cuisine, or Latin American tango? For children, I find usin

I love teaching and working with all students. I believe everyone can learn, no matter the difficulties faced in the past or present. I educate on the belief that because everyone is unique, everyone also has a unique way of learning. I am available to help your son or daughter to find academic success in a way that is tailored to their needs. I am patient, easy going, and considerate, while still impassioned to challenge and inspire. My goal is to provide the best education possible, not just in teaching a subject, but also helping your son or daughter to learn to grow academically. I am a firm believer in teaching through discovery and hands on approach. As a graduate from University of Idaho, I was very much driven to reach a higher level of excellence in education, leadership, and support of my peers. I have earned a BS in Chemistry, which has allowed me to gain an understanding

In my instruction I apply research-based strategies, theories, new techniques, and modern methods of instruction. I put a lot of thought and work in to creating my lesson plans. This can be seen in the detail that I provide on each plan. I pay careful consideration to connecting the lesson to the GLEs and EALRs and I summarize each lesson in great detail. My lesson plans are thorough, well-crafted and would enable anyone to come in and take over my class in my absence. My plans are creative, useful and each one presents an important lesson that combine innovative strategies with engaging activities. They stimulate imagination and help develop oral and written language skills. My experience as a teacher has given me the opportunity to teach math, science, history, literature, reading and writing to a very diverse group of students. These students vary in development, both academical

I tutored my way through 5 years of college. Most of that tutoring took place in drop-in learning centers at Blue Mountain Community College and Eastern Oregon University. In that time I have tutored every aspect of mathematics from remedial arithmetic to calculus and statistics, and won the 2009 EOU Award for Outstanding Academic Support. I have worked with high school teenagers while student-teaching in pursuit of a Master’s degree in education, but I learned that I am far more effective as a one-on-one troubleshooter than a classroom ringmaster. I am a troubleshooter. In my experience, there is usually one aspect of mathematics that a student has never been comfortable with, one aspect that poisons his or her interactions with all other facets of the subject. I begin by meeting a student on his or her own terms: we talk about the class and we go over the exercises that the studen
