As Sir Francis Bacon famously quoted, "with knowledge comes power" and learning this concept early on has been life-changing. Being able to teach/correct a student that is having trouble with a concept, idea, or a lesson gives a sense of satisfaction to not only the tutor but the person being tutored....

I've worked with students with each of these problems (and...

Often that moment comes by relating a troubling concept to something...

...depends on the different person. I've been in education and training for the last ten years, and teaching both middle and high school for the last five, and I know that it takes more than one way to teach a person to know whether or not they understand what was told.

I have tutored peers in many subjects that they found difficult to grasp in class and I have experience tutoring middle and high school students, both in group and individual settings. Im from a small town in southern Illinois, where I was...

...Some of the most important qualities include passion, leadership, and content knowledge. Tutors accommodate the academic, social, and emotional needs of all of their students. An effective tutor engages all students into each lesson so they feel like they are part of the classroom community helping them become more active in the learning process. An outstanding tutor is also very knowledgeable about the content being presented. It is important that tutors teach a lesson dynamically...

...tutor, I am determined to make sure those ideas reach that clarity so that they can be understood and then applied to their relevant field, turning an idea into reality.

I ask a lot of questions and tailor my response...
