This means not only asking the question, "How is this idea relevant to the modern day?" but also to pose to your student, "How is this relevant to you, to your individual life?"

I believe the tutor should be working to meet the student on their level, and I take every opportunity I can to adapt my style of teaching to the individual's proficiencies. My favorite subjects to tutor are English, writing, college essays, ACT reading, ACT writing, and...
