While I'm new to Wyzant's platform, I've had experience tutoring at a center as well as taking on many students privately through referrals and word-of-mouth. For me, the best moments are those "oh wow!" moments of excitement that students express when they grasp a topic and see the beauty and the connections in mathematics.
