Zoe: La Mesa California Proficiency Program (CPP) course instructor
Thanks to one-on-one help in middle and high school, I not only achieved stronger grades/test scores, but gained the confidence I will continue to use even beyond graduate school. I hope to give others the same invaluable tool set!... The ways I've always preferred to learn myself are typically the ways I teach. Once it seems like a student has a pretty strong understanding of a subject, I like to play competitive or timed games. It can be anything from dry-erase board Jeopardy to quiz racing. This way practice problems don't get too repetitive, and students know they can handle the material under pressure. I've found this especially helpful with test prep!
