...tutors I've had in my life. They've shown me that everyone has the potential to become a top student. I've been tutoring for over 4 years now and in that time, I've learned a ton of effective teaching methods. I've also learned many that don't work at all - we will skip those.

Discovering this learning style is incredibly important both to...

I take advantage of it and the opportunity to become better than I was the day before.
