I am looking to get some more experience tutoring and teaching with the idea of pursuing further academic work in the future.... It changes based on the student. Not all students work well with a particular philosophy, nor should such a philosophy be set in stone.... I would look to understand the student's class, goals, and strengths/weaknesses. Then I might have them work on their normal homework with me making suggestions to get an idea of...

...specific literary-minded questions that I asked on a routine basis as an Instructor of World Literature. The one I think is most relevant to the SAT and other standardized tests asks, "what is the author not merely saying with his or her words, but doing with them"? When we put ourselves in the shoes of the test-writers, not just the shoes of the test-taker, a lot becomes really clear about how to succeed at taking...

All of these are a passion of mine, although I would say Philosophy and Social Sciences are my strongest.
