Let's start with the basics. Many students begin to think "I just don't get it!," or "I can't do it!" They mentally block their chances to learn. In reality, frustration controls your thought process and you simply give up. Most of the time, I discover that my students are missing the basic steps from an earlier lesson that can help them find the answer. Once we uncover what we don't know, we can begin to understand what we need to know. As your tutor, we will break each lesson down into a series of small steps to help you understand the concept and not to simply find the answer and move on. We will work together to help you store each step in your memory, practice, and then solve. Once you begin to feel confident and solve on your own by a series of small steps, what used to be difficult will become easy!
