Colton: Mount Prospect ACT Science tutor
Certified ACT Science Tutor
...transfer of knowledge that the typical classroom of one teacher to twenty or so students doesn't allow--it's more personal. By use of whiteboards, practice problems, constant repetition, and positive encouragement, students start to understand the problems themselves and are more likely to be able to solve similar problems by themselves in the future. When I can see the student understands a troubling concept so that s/he can explain it to me, it's so rewarding.... Tutoring for...
