APPROACH Over time, I've learned that good tutoring is more than knowing a subject – it's knowing how to truly connect with students and teach in a relaxed and engaging way. I approach my students in a good-humored, confident and knowledgeable manner. This approach enables my students to feel relaxed, focused and interested, which allows them to truly learn a subject. Years of experience have honed my natural gifts as a teacher; allowing me to intuitively sense when to supply an answer and when to prod a student to think of it on their own; how to help students build confidence with their own knowledge; and how to customize my teaching methods to work with each student's unique temperament and learning style. Effective tutoring allows students to become relaxed, engaged and open to the learning process. My approach fosters these qualities and enhances my students’ abilities to think critically about their own educations. My flexible and focused methods aim to harness the power of learning, and from my experience, the one-on-one tutoring situation is much more effective for many students than classroom education. |
