I love the opportunity to help students. I care about the success of the students. A great joy that I have is when a student has the "I got it" or the "I understand" moment. It is as if a light bulb goes off for the student. When I have helped someone accomplish a goal, I feel accomplished. When tutoring I like to find out what the student knows and build from what they know. What I have learned as a tutor and a teacher that not every one learns at the same pace. I think it is important that tutors and teachers know how to adjust to meet the needs of the student.
