I have eight previous years of tutoring experience in multiple different areas and socio-economic levels. I teach students how to learn. ...

I would spend some time introducing ourselves and establishing a great rapport with my student. I would ensure that I utilized the session to become crystal clear about my student's goals, struggles, and learning style. Of course, we would also spend time diving into the student's work to help him or her feel successful right away.

...on working toward success and improvement. I bring this empathetic approach to my interactions by breaking down the material in a way that it can be mastered step by step.
