Upon conversing with her, I learned that weeks prior, Elisa had punctured the sole of her foot as she worked. Unable to afford time away from her duties, she endured the pain as she worked each day.

...ability to tutor them effectively. My tutoring experience has given me the skills to work with students of any age, skill level, or prerequisite knowledge. My main goal when tutoring is to teach a fundamental understanding. So many students perform math as a set of steps to memorize, but with a true understanding math can be transformed into an intuitive subject. In my spare time I enjoy reading, watching television and movies, running, and cooking.

...you come to me for a single session or we meet every week for a semester, I believe the first step to success with tutoring is to work together to set clear expectations. This lets us work toward the same goal, and makes it simple to set milestones to get there.

Motivation like this starts with just a spark of knowledge, a guess at the right answer, and a push in...

Most of these techniques associate silly stories or acronyms with concepts, as psychological studies have shown that...
