Chess is one of my top subjects! 2. I have designed and taught chess classes for both children and adults. The age of students ranges from about five years through senior adults. One-on-one personal chess instruction has also been provided for those age ranges as well. With long term experience, I have founded or co-founded successful scholastic and community-based chess clubs. Students with a wide variety of backgrounds and mental skills have been instructed on topics from the basics through tournament success. 3. Instruction development includes class material, forms and PowerPoint presentations. I have developed various techniques targeted to the audience to enhance their ease of understanding and enjoyment of the game. Documents designed include instructional materials, hand-outs, tests, problems sets, and other chess related items. 4. Personal chess background includes successes in tournament play and club competition. These have been at various time controls and under a variety of conditions.

1. Formal education is extensive—four college degrees, several college certificates, etc. I am an avid, extensive and eclectic reader. 2.

A Little Bit About Me...

My undergraduate background is in philosophy and my teaching experience is in mathematics. I am personally committed to communicating the value of knowing math principles to every person in their daily lives. Mathematics is a language for understanding problems and breaking complicated problems down into simple problems step by step. Math isn't just about numbers and variables; it is a mental habit of problem solving that can be used to de-mystify problems in every day life. I am especially interested in teaching math through the use of visual aids and games.
I earned a BA in Philosophy at Kent State University in 2000. Since then I have studied graduate level Mathematics and I taught undergraduate mathematics classes at Kent State University during the course of my graduate studies. At KSU I have taught Fundamental Math 6 which is high school level pre-algebra math and Algeb ... read more
