...grade students in math. Lastly, I spent a month teaching computer literacy to health workers in rural Togo in the summer of 2013. I find tutoring to be an extremely rewarding experience. I really enjoy teaching and like the challenge of trying to figure out the teaching style that best fits my students!... I understand that everyone has different learning styles and learns material at a different pace. Therefore, I first try to figure out the learning style of my student, and then identify their strengths and weaknesses. I make sure to provide constant feedback and act as a cheerleader for my students - consistently encouraging them throughout the learning process.
