I believe that the tutor-student relationship should hinge upon connection. Age is relative. Although as we age we tend to accrue more wisdom, I have met some young people who have interpersonal capacities that transcend their years. In other words, just because someone is old or young does NOT mean they are w... Read more

My name is Cynthia and I graduated from the University of Connecticut with my Bachelors in English. Currently I am pursuing my Masters of Science in Social Work, at Columbia University. My favorite thing about being a teacher, is that not only am I teaching the future but I am constantly learning from my students. I've started tutoring because 1:1 help creates such fast turn around. My favorite thing is when students have that "aha" moment and they start to understand a topic that felt imp... Read more
