...Arts in NYC in 2008, the oldest English speaking acting conservatory in the world. I graduated Summa from University of St Thomas with a BA in English, and just wrapped up a MS in Data Science from Northwestern. I'm a huge Red Sox fan and love watching detective shows when I have free time.... Positivity. Always. I believe that if a student is given positive tools and is allowed to understand the material rather than be lectured at, they're more likely to do well in the future.

...satisfaction. I have found that most students have a willingness to do well, but lack the understanding as to how to pursue their goals. It is only after winning over these students, and in many cases, even going out of the way to help them, that they are really able to succeed.... First, understand the level of skills of the subject matter of the tutee. Then, make a plan to raise the existing level to the desired level. While doing so, make sure the student gains confidence as we go along. Avoid making negative comments and ignore any attitude problem that the tutee may exhibit. Create a friendly environment so that learning can thrive. Relate to real life applications of the subject matter. Students learn best when they are convinced that what they are learning applies to real life.
