I have served as a tutor during middle school and high school for subjects ranging from math to history to English. I think that I'm a great tutor because I am knowledgeable in the subjects that I have listed above. I am also very patient when teaching others because I understand how difficult some concepts can be to grasp having struggled with them myself earlier in life. ... My teaching philosophy can best be described as persistent. I will try a variety of different methods, sample problems, and approaches to make sure the student is comfortable with the material on their own.
