I believe a tutor's job is to provide skills and not answers. By assessing what skills are missing and teaching those, the student will be able to excel. Normally, a struggling student is missing a basic skill that is causing the current material to seem more difficult. Once the student is proficient in the basic skill, the new skill will become easier, eventually allowing the student to work independently. Other students may struggle with content due to learning disabilities. I have extensive experience tutoring students with learning disabilities, and can provide various techniques to improve their classroom performance.
