I am a great tutor because when I am finished tutoring a student, they not only get their work done, they understand the concept they were having trouble with.

I also do plenty of examples, doing whatever I can to relate the work to the real world, and specifically, their real world. I try to gain a rapport with the student, then relate the course material to the student's life.
