A customized approach to learning

To me, the true benefit of private tutoring has always been the personal relationship honed. To help a student achieve their academic goals should be to understand where a student’s strengths and weaknesses are, what learning style best suits them, and what work they are comfortable with taking on. In both the sciences and the humanities, there are hundreds of different teaching strategies and approaches that are able to be introduced. My job is not only to apply a learning approach, but to choose an approach based on my student’s character, learning style, and personal preference. Working with a one-on-one tutor should not only mean better help with school work –– it should mean customized help, discussion, and growth from a tutor that knows your student personally, and cares about their success.
