I've always loved languages and writing. Being a tutor is one of the most fun ways I can put together the things that I love-people and language.... In a first session, I would get to know my student a bit and spend some time reviewing what he or she knows about the subject. By doing this, we can find what is really great and what we can improve.... It's always okay to ask for help as...

...believe in meeting the student exactly where their skills are and creating a plan together to reach specific goals in their learning. Together, we won't just "learn Spanish/math", together we will use Spanish/math to prepare for a specific assessment.

...and their past experiences with the subject being discussed. I have found that engaging with the student and opening a line of communication helps me to determine what the focus of a session should be and how directly to approach learning specific topics.

Therefore, I try to keep in mind that figuring out a...
