I also believe that, in my German tutoring especially, I'm very systematic, so that my students have a strong grammar foundation on which to build further skills and concepts. I have also lived in Germany for a year, and am able to bring world-life experiences into tutoring sessions, so that I can instill in my students a desire to learn more of the German language through a glimpse of what...

I sincerely believe that a student can learn to do anything as long as he understands what his teacher is explaining (and that is where I come in!) On top of that, I am an upbeat and positive person, and I honestly enjoy what I...

I have found that for kids, especially in mathematics, relating to something they enjoy makes the experience more enjoyable. Regarding peers/college level students, I can relate to them very well, because I have been through exactly what they're going through and I believe the number one trait is patience. I never rush a...

...levels of the German classes as sometimes a pull out and after school tutor. I am a very passionate person, and one of my major passions is school and I want to spread that passion around and get people as excited for school as they were when they were younger. The most rewarding thing to me is when someone is able to say "Oh! I get it," and understand something they didn't before.... I believe in building a good rapport with my students and find it very important for creating humorous examples. Students will need to put in work outside of the sessions to keep up progress like any other skills.

I enjoy tutoring because of the opportunity it provides to encourage students' intellectual curiosity. Seeing the joy of learning when a concept "clicks" for someone is one of the perks of the job. I also appreciate the mental stimulation tutoring provides for me, exercising my brain in different ways than I do with my artwork or other activities.
