I am a motivated and dedicated student who is looking to help similar-minded students achieve their academic goals.... I believe that patience and understanding is the key to teaching students. One can never rush learning, as students need to have a solid foundation before learning new concepts....

...I now tutor SAT Critical Reading, Writing, Literacy, History, and Japanese. Writing is my favorite subject to tutor. I enjoy the fact that even the most dense research assignment asks the writer to take a stand. Very few subjects ask for a student's opinion, but writing asks for just that. I like guiding students to figuring out the right answer, instead of telling them. Working with students and prompting them to what they need to...

...teach it to someone else, and that goes with how I like to teach in so much that a lot of how I teach is for the student to be able to say what they are doing, being able to teach it back to me instead of just being able to parrot what I just wrote the day before, because in the end, parroting the information means they will forget it in a few months,...
