...teacher's assistant on and off for over five years now. In my opinion and through my experience over the years, I must say patience is one of the main ingredients to successful tutoring and/or teaching. With patience comes a more acute sense of observation and, consequently, learning how each pupil absorbs and retains information. And the next important ingredient is to keep the exchange engaging and interesting. Make it fun and avoid monotony.

Then, find out what the student knows and what the student needs help with.... By asking the student to explain how they get to their answers. That way, they get a chance to test if they really understand a concept.... By keeping the student engaged.... I would take the time to figure out what exactly is...

I've also been trained in the idiomatic pronunciation (diction) of these languages (I'm an opera singer) so I would be able to help the student pronounce the words with a more native-sounding accent.
