Tamara
Teacher with 30 years of experience teaching the whole student
- $59 / h
- Los Alamitos , California ( 90720 )
- 15 miles
When tutoring a new student, I first like to get a sense of the student as a whole person, to establish trust and a personal connection. At this point, I try to assess the student's needs by attempting to understand why they are having trouble with the subject, if applicable, or why they want to learn the subject. Sometimes I find it useful to have the student try to teach me what they know so far, so I can grasp where they are with the subject. Then, I try various approaches to understand th... Read more
