Chess is one of my top subjects! I'm a strong amateur/club-level player, no tournament experience but I have a good grasp of general principles and tactics, along with a decent grasp of positional play and general opening knowledge (more knowledge in the systems I generally play, obviously.) I'm able to instruct/coach beginning/intermediate players. Notice also that my rate is half the rate of other chess coaches. I'm of the belief that you don't need a titled player tutoring you to improve your chess, hiring one would be a waste of money. Just hire me instead... u3batlin@yahoo.com for more info or call/text 216-820-8278 (text preferred)

I learned how to play chess about twenty years ago, it's been rather on and off since then. I've steadily improved and tried so many different ways to improve before finding the right method for myself that I'm confident in my many approaches to teaching. As far as other subjects, I graduated high school with honors back in 2003 with a 3.8 GPA, and scored a composite 30 on the ACT. I was awarded the Presidential Scholarship from Baldwin-Wallace, went there for a year, didn't like the school at all (should have researched it more...) So we have those life lesson bits too I suppose. Anyway, pretty much any subject is a go... obviously let me know details beforehand so I can brush up on things if necessary!
I employ a personalized teaching style, very interactive. Instead of just answering a question or stating why something is the way it is, we'll work it out so there is real underst ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have taught in classes with adult professionals in the area of design and illustration. I have provided knowledge from the outside professional work froce in which I have givin direction obtained in real life situations in decission making and executing and reaching potential goals in the work arena. I have also shown the prblem solving skills in the classroom to be a proven track to the experience in the day to day assignments expected to achieve in a professional position.
I would prepare the student to advance his or her knowledge to be able to tackle the professional potential in the reality work force, or next level of learning. I believe any- one with the right motivation can reach they're potential with the proper tools being taught as well as the right environment.

I have been a working graphic designer for most of my life after graduation from Ohio State. After 12 years of design I was asked to participate in an art and education program at Chicago Public Schools Autism Program. I was hired on the spot and then continued with education by obtaining a masters degree in special education in Tempe Arizona. In Arizona I was assigned as an inclusion teacher for 9, 10 11th grade English. I had to accommodate diverse learners and plan instruction. I hold a valid Arizona Cross Catagorical Special Education Certificate that expires August 2013
I can identify students problems in learning and can accommodate and modify curriculum so diverse learning can understand grade level state standards. Each student will have a unique set of circumstances that make their learning style different. I am adept at finding that learning style or block to le ... read more
