...know them on a personal level. As someone very similar in age to most of my students, I use relatable language and examples so that the material appears both relevant and understandable, yet I make sure to position myself as someone who is still their professional superior, and therefore someone who deserves their respect. Respect is however, in my opinion, something which does not simply come with the title of TA but is something that...

...down into small parts. For example, things like Advanced Placement tests and standardized tests when viewed as a whole can seem like daunting tasks which require lots of higher order reading, writing, and thinking skills. However, when they are approached question by question and broken down into series of basic tasks, they become much more manageable. In my spare time I enjoy reading, particularly nonfiction books on the areas I tutor in such as history...

Colton: Durham History tutor
...I'd say test prep is my favorite subject to tutor, as the progress has tangible results: a few points more on a standardized test that translates into more scholarships and better chances for admission into more schools. Tutoring for me is a transfer of knowledge that the typical classroom of one teacher to twenty or so students doesn't allow--it's more personal. By use of whiteboards, practice problems, constant repetition, and positive encouragement, students start to...
