That is why I want to be a tutor - so that I can help...

...2013. My favorite topics to tutor would have to be Algebra and Calculus. Algebra is one of the fundamental topics of Math and Calculus can be applied to an array of different subjects. I believe that Math builds upon itself and without a proper foundation it is impossible to move forward. Because of this, once the student grasps a concept in one problem I have them repeat the process until they can do so easily....

...mobility. One may be born into status, but with education they can navigate their network and privilege. One may be born into destitute circumstances, but with their education can rise above their situation. One of the only things that a child should not have to earn is their right to knowledge.

...student, I continually appreciate how important student-teacher feedback is in enhancing the learning process. I incorporate this into my teaching by regularly checking my students' comprehension levels and crafting custom materials to address their particular weaknesses. I try to make the learning process disciplined yet collaborative, so the student feels like he/she is not merely an information receptacle. In this way, thinking and learning skills develop along with knowledge of content. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed helping...
