I feel that knowing a subject and knowing how to teach said subject can be quite different. Being able to relate to different types of people and understanding different learning styles is extremely important and listening for comprehension, as a teacher/tutor, is a necessary skill that I don't see enough of. Knowing how crucial it is, I try my best to really listen and understand the learners point of view in order to make the most out of any teaching opportunity.

Anything outdoors, playing sports (not so much watching), animal science, social science and spending time with friends and family.
