...you will never get better, and that is how I would describe my tutoring style. I start out showing students the path in order to get to the solutions, and then I challenge the student to find the solution on their own.

...style would be to explain the subject and make it easier to understand, then it will be easier to memorize and apply to different questions.

When I tutor, I like to draw on the methods I have learned from studying philosophy of clarifying and communicating ideas in an understandable way by showing how each concept follows from a previous concept, because it is much easier to learn something new when the explanation is rooted in something on which we already have a firm grasp. In my spare time I enjoy reading, playing music,...
