So, the teacher as facilitator must cultivate prior knowledge, provide engaging learning environments, and present the content in a relevant and meaningful manner if significant learning is to take place.

I was introduced to tutoring through a love of helping my friends succeed, and finding wonderful friends that helped me succeed. The feeling of understanding something is amazing, and the feeling of helping someone understand something is rewarding. Above all, I encourage critical thinking in everything I teach. Memorizing formulas and facts is good for short-term learning, but to truly understand a concept it is necessary to stimulate our minds to see patterns and connections.

...an instructor. Initially, it was more a love of the water than love of teaching that drew me to that first summer job I ever had, but I soon realized how rewarding it is to work with young people and help them acquire skills they can use throughout their lifetime.

...placed in Houston, primarily as a science teacher, though I dabbled in much more! I was a certified teacher, with three years of teaching experience. Now that I work full time, and am no longer in the classroom, tutoring is my hobby. Though my teaching background is in the maths and sciences, literature and writing are my passions.

...understand the mechanisms behind why it works, and thus I stress understanding underlying concepts in tutoring. I always look to relate to the students that I tutor to not only become their friend but also to better understand their way of thinking and thus how it is easiest for them to break down difficult subjects into simple concepts.
