...they care about. Second, getting to know the student- everyone has unique talents, tendencies, and goals. There is an area of overlap between each school subject (even standardized tests, which require critical thinking!) and a student's goals, and it's usually bigger than it first appears. A star athlete doesn't just need to pass English to graduate; she needs to be able to write a well organized and error-free letter. In time, I'd hope to become...

I will make it the ultimate goal of every student I tutor to understand absolutely everything that they have trouble with. I aim to help with critical thinking and inquiry so that the student not only solves the problem, but understands the concepts and where they need to be used.
