...learn, his or her own, respective subject matter at hand. An instructor should anticipate great things from all of his students, irrespective of a student's talents and abilities. Each student should be treated as an individual, since each learner engages in learning, in his or her own, individual manner. A cookie-cutter approach to teaching, should be eschewed. Finally, learning should be deemed a lifelong pursuit; it should be my role as an academic tutor/educator, to...

...in Paris, France learning the language and culture. Over the course of those three years, I became bilingual and gained a great deal of knowledge about French Culture and lifestyle. I attended a French University and lived with several different French families. The methods I use when tutoring always depend on the student.

...and university level. A few years ago I decided to focus solely on elementary, middle, and high school students. I substitute teach about 90% of the school calendar year and I have been a tutor (in home and online). In fact, substitute teaching is a lot like being a tutor. Beyond subject matter content, teaching is always about the self-esteem of the student. Learning is a lifelong process. Each teaching situation is an opportunity to...

...when you're one of the students that doesn't learn well with that technique? It was at that point, for me, that realized a tutor was my only hope of passing certain classes. Because the tutor could tell exactly where I was getting caught up, they were able to help me work through all of my weak sections. To me, it's not enough to understand a concept, but to retain that understanding. I can't recount the...

...of Portland. I am in the National Honors Society since high school and I have been tutoring ever since.
