I believe that my job isn't only to teach students academic content, but also to help them develop skills to set goals and gain autonomy over their own education.

...thinking abstractly over time as it becomes able to hold more pieces of information in mind at once. Thus, when tutoring younger children, it's helpful to rely much more on pictures and other visuals so the young learner doesn't have to maintain all the information from the discussion in their heads.
