There is nothing worse than an...

Once I successfully taught 3 years of Jr High math to a student who barely spoke English within one summer, I felt ready to take on any challenge! Overall though, I have found that the most important job as a tutor is to...

...with intention yet flexibility. It loses its beauty and particularity the second discouragement spreads, the instant anxiety kicks in. I believe a good tutor must do more than teach content.

...in Boston, as well as experience in private, non-essential education (teaching with Education First in Quito, Ecuador). While I very much enjoy classroom teaching, the one-to-one or small-group teaching I did with Education First is something that I found to be most rewarding.
