I prefer to cater the way I teach a student based on how they learn, whether it be by visuals, repetition, etc. I create methods that are out of the box if a student struggles with the way she/he are learning in school since school tends to teach in a uniform method rather than on an individualized basis.

...volunteered at a local hospital during high school. I have learned through my training and working with children that those who succeed in school are not necessarily those who are the "smart" ones.

I seek to instill in my students that if they work hard on their shortcomings, they will be able to...

...tutor and aid young people is indescribable. Having just entered adulthood myself, I find that I can better communicate with those younger than me. A fact that translates over to my teaching style as well. No one learns the same way and I feel that by getting to know a student I can better adjust myself to fit their needs.
