...of tutoring, my main proficiency is in chemistry, physics, math, Spanish, ACT/SAT prep, and some English. I think that tutoring is not about teaching but about learning. The student needs to be gain interest via examples, questions, and humor in order to become proficient. A combination of written, visual, and visual aids the learning; advancement occurs over several stages, but should end with the student being able to work on problems as independently as possible.

...always appreciated understanding the "why" and "how" in school and I try to help my students achieve that level of understanding as well.
