Not only does this empower students, but it also gives them a framework to understand and tackle more complex problems outside of tutoring.

When I student-taught at Edison High School, I learned the importance of not only appreciating each student's learning style, but the less salient aspects of his or her life which affected learning: their extracurricular activities, workload in other classes, and emotional, social, or psychological struggles.
