...their peers, and the lessons presented when they feel safe and sure of what is expected of them. In setting fair and consistent rules initially and stating the importance of every activity, students are shown respect for their presence and time. In turn, they learn to respect themselves, others, and their environment. For myself, tutoring provides an opportunity for continual learning and growth. One of my hopes as a tutor is to instill a love...

...and tutoring sessions as the officer of Outreach for the Society of Physics Students at UF. My main motivation for tutoring is simply that I love physics and math, and find them immensely beautiful. I want to share that love and illustrate concepts visually and intuitively rather than through mechanical computation. There's a quote I can't track down along the lines of "Do not attempt a proof until it is almost obvious" which guides my...

I enjoy teaching math because to the student who doesn't understand, it is a riddle with no answer. By teaching them how to recognize the type of problem and how to decode the clues, the student gets to be on the other side of the riddle, the side on which they solve it and feel good about it.

I'm a St. Paul editor with experience with both teaching and standardized testing.

A good tutor is someone who understands your learning needs and desires, and adapts their teaching style to meet those needs. Learning should be an interactive process, with the tutor and the one being tutored offering equal conversation and interacting in meaningful ways together. The best tutors are able to balance the need for specific content mastery and the desire to instill a love for learning as a general concept.

...in my room, causing occasional avalanches. Throughout my education I've frequently made use of online resources like khanacademy, letting me learn more about math, physics, and other subjects than I could through school. However, sometimes it was difficult to find the resources I needed to learn as much as I was capable of learning. I chose to tutor on this website so that I could help other motivated students in that situation, and so that...
