In terms of Philosophy, I am best suited for a student considering Anchient, Modern, Existential...

What I learned over the years is that we all stumble into problems and difficulties at some point, and we all manage to overcome these challenges by asking others how they solved their own. That is what problem solving and tutoring should be all about: humbly admitting your own mistakes and difficulties, and sharing the solutions to those problems with those you are tutoring.
