...tutored peers throughout my undergrad. I also was given the opportunity to teach English in Bolivia last summer. My favorite subjects to tutor are Math and English, because I think both subjects can be mastered through practice, and don't necessarily require memorization.

Lauren: Yonkers ACT Writing tutor
Certified ACT Writing Tutor in Yonkers, NY

Discuss their interests, what motivates them, and their goals. What do they want to get out of tutoring?... Guide them through questions without telling them the answer, gradually removing supports with each practice until they are able to complete the task on their own.
