...me), others are physical learners, and others have even different styles of learning (there are seven recognized types of learning). Teachers can attempt to teach to different learning styles, but sometimes trying to accommodate for all seven can be incredibly tedious, especially when there are a lot of students in a class. In these cases, your child could be struggling with a subject merely because it isn’t being taught to him/her in a way that...

...for the SATs and the LSAT. More and more people asked me to tutor their children, so I contacted Varsity tutors to extend my reach to people who did not know me personally.

This forces me to adopt an engaging style to ensure...

I work as a Microbiologist, and I love to share my knowledge with others. Sometimes I do it by singing, conversations with friends, or by tutoring. No matter the mechanism, teaching and learning are my life!... Keep going. Everything that has happened in my life, good and bad, has happened because I did not quit. Learning is a journey.

I try to add realism and practicality to the sometimes dry, theoretical learning experience. There is nothing more satisfying than to see a student's success and progress. I love music and sing in three groups that entertain at hospitals and nursing...

...ideas to solve problems is the next step in the formal learning process. Finally, the use of learned concepts in new situations is essential for the student to prove understanding. By using understood information, students should be able to apply what they have learned to new situations presented to them by the teacher and in the future, by life. Transfer of this sort is what really determines what has been absorbed and will stick with...
