...can learn the greater importance of an event or of an author's main argument and styles, they learn more than basic information to repeat in a test: they begin to master the information and use it to approach new material with greater preparedness. I always want the learner's outcome to be a compoundable skill. For students learning to read and write better, I believe it's all about structure. There are simple constructs of idea, speaker,...

Finally, I've found that the best way to facilitate learning is to highlight easily understandable parallels to the content being studied. For example, I would compare a historical event to an ongoing, contemporary controversy. Or I would encourage students to think of historical figures as actual characters with goals and motivations instead of just a name on a page. Likewise, when tutoring vocabulary,...

...that learning and discovering are forces that both fascinate and drive the direction of my life. As a researcher for documentary film, I have made learning about new things the center of my professional life. I am attracted to tutoring for many of the same reasons; I love witnessing the magic of the "click" of understanding that washes over a student who had previously struggled with a difficult concept and find it deeply fulfilling.... I see myself as more of a facilitator of learning. I wish to help my students with helpful tools and techniques and gently guide them. In this way, I endeavor to help them hone their skills and trust their own instincts so that they can continue to tackle challenges without my help.

...Romance Languages (French and Spanish) and a minor in Chinese. I have also studied a bit of Italian, Japanese, German, and Swedish. I have always had a passion for foreign languages, fascinated by both the linguistic mechanics and the cultural practices that have prompted each language's unique style. I greatly enjoy sharing the knowledge I've learned from my studies with others, which is the primary reason why I became a Varsity tutor!... I think the key to language learning is not being able to learn one specific language, but to understand how language functions on an abstract level. To me, it is not just a matter of memorizing a bunch of sentences and repeating them when you think it's the right time, but I strive more to help each student understand the intention behind each thing being said, so that not only will the students say or write the sentence correctly, they will also understand why it is correct.
