Special Needs: ?
I am originally from New York and moved to San Francisco about 10 years ago. I started out teaching 4th and 5th grades right out of college and then transitioned to tutoring when I moved to San Francisco. I work well with young students (typically grades 1 - 4), but am willing to broaden that age group.
As a tutor, I think it is important to help students find answers themselves. I believe that everyone has a different learning style, and it can take a bit of time to figure out what each person's style is. I believe in having a calm demeanor, even when a student gets frustrated because he/she is not getting the concept. When that happens, it is important to re-evaluate how the concept was taught, and try a different approach. My ultimate goal in life is to help students succeed!
