My first secret for tutoring is that usually, especially with math, the thing a student is facing at the moment, be it a homework set or an exam, is not the real trouble, but some other difficulty from before, maybe even from a course long ago, is dragging a student down, blocking him or her from learning a new subject. I try to delve down with the student and try to work...
