Chess is one of my top subjects!

Chess: My teaching of chess can either start with the basics of the game or with in-depth tactics and strategies. I am a proponent of the romantic school of chess and focus on studying the old masters of the game. Violin: I will be teaching classical violin but practice will be integrated with folk music. Lessons can be tailored for a complete beginner or for a novice wanting to refine their skills.

I recently graduated from the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga with a B.S. in environmental science and a concentration in sociology and anthropology.

After earning an alternative teaching license this spring, I plan on teaching biology, ecology, and/or environmental science in Chattanooga.

A Little Bit About Me...

Due to my experience with a broad range of young learners, each working at a different academic and or cognitive pace, I follow a modified Socratic approach to both my classroom and one on one instruction by placing the emphasis on the student as we identify areas for growth. I then sculpt an academic program that we both/all have helped to design, thus accessing an invaluable font of enthusiasm and insight addressing how best to approach the needs of each individual student. This is especially true for those students who don't feel heard, suffer from academic performance anxiety or are struggling with the manner in which the material has previously been presented to them.
Over the course of the past 10 years I have spent time working with students struggling to develop their academic skills, particularly in the areas of language arts and the social studies. From my initial work as ... read more
