...goal and reduces their anxiety. I also know that students have different brains that respond to different methods, and I optimize the student's learning styles to accelerate their learning process. For example, I incorporate music and film when I know it can expand the technical into the real.

After reviewing the student's previous work and/or test scores, together, we set up a curriculum that works to strengthen his or her weaknesses whether that be reading comprehension, grammar skills, algebra, test taking tips, time management, etc. During our sessions together, we will review the problems that I have provided for homework, and I will instruct the student on better and faster ways to solve the...

...I try to help students understand the "historical method" as easily as possible through exposure to historical sources and understanding of their uses--I also frequently approach history from a so-called "bottom-up" or microhistorical approach, which I've found in teaching Roman Republican history can be very useful for students in understanding how a society functioned, which is crucial for their understanding of causality of events. These methods of approaching teaching in these particular subjects served me...

I am currently studying Economics and East Asian Studies at Columbia University. Outgoing by nature, I have a teaching method that is very interactive. During a tutoring session, my students should expect a dialogue rather than a lecture. I have a background tutoring Math and Mandarin Chinese to students ranging from Elementary School to College.

I believe that all students should be given the opportunities they deserve to advance in their education ... All students have the potential to learn; they need only find the right method.... Discuss their interests, what motivates them, and their goals. What do they want to get out of tutoring?... Guide them through questions without telling them the answer, gradually removing supports with each practice until they are able to complete the task on their own.
