I think learning can be really fun, if teachers think outside the box and really challenge themselves to find novel ways of conveying concepts to students. Tried and true methods are always great in the classroom, but to work one-on-one with students requires a different approach. It's also critical that learning be something students want, not grudgingly sit through, so that...

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.
