"How" leads us to thinking and discussing strategies and a general openness to learning. "Why" helps us think more critically about our decisions. Sometimes that makes a learner make a new decision on her own. These prompts are wonderful seques into important conversations where...

...is a crazy thing. Sometimes it clicks, and oftentimes it doesn't. Sometimes you're pumped about fractions and oftentimes you're yelling at Shakespeare. I graduated from Yale with a degree in American Studies, and took all sorts of fun and arguably bizarre classes from building medical devices for babies, to learning Zulu, and analyzing German fairytales. And believe me, oftentimes things just don't make sense to me. But I've found that having someone (i.e. a tutor)...
