Binh: Bayonne tutor
Certified Tutor
Used to be student, one who has traveled across the globe just to further my study, I understand the value of education in different aspects and cultures. From my experience, also as a business owner who coach younger ones, I was able to boil down what is the utmost important in teaching/learning process. I believe "to learn" is an active verb, which must comes willingly from the learners. That means a teacher's job is not only to help the learners understand the material, but also to create trust and passion, so they can be excited about not only learning in school, but also throughout their lives.
