...English Literature. As a tutor, I start by listening carefully to my students so I can better understand their problem solving skills, self-awareness, and patterns of self-expression. I keep close track of my observations so I can better fashion my teaching style to their needs. Are they struggling with organization? Focus? Or is it simply a comprehension issue? I then design the pace and style of my approach to best suit their needs. My domains...
