Improved memory and brain function? Stress relief and social interaction? Mahjong is a popular tile-based game that has been played for centuries and has been found to have numerous benefits including improved cognitive function, memory, stress relief, attention and focus. Because Mahjong is typically played in groups, it provides opportunities for social interaction and connection. This can help reduce feelings of loneliness and isolation.

Larry the Math Tutor
- $35 / h
- 107 ratings
- Lake Villa , Illinois ( 60046 )
- 25 miles
I believe that math is fun. One of the great difficulties many students face is the self fulfilling prophecy that I have always been poor at math and I will always be poor at math. The key to success is for the student to believe that they can become better at math. Therefore I have the student experience earned success in order to achieve some confidence. Constant failure is discouraging. I have taught for three years at the middle school level. I also have experience teaching ACT math... Read more

- Vernon Hills , Illinois ( 60061 )

I have a Master's in Geography and a MBA. I've taught at two community colleges and tutored students at the collegiate level. I know the importance of elementary education and the trouble students have when they fall behind from personal experience. At times students need one-on-one attention with someone who listens to them to understand how they learn. No two students are alike and their tutoring should be customized to their needs. I enjoy tutoring individuals and groups and make it a... Read more
