Career Experience
I've been a tutor for over eight years. My first teaching experience was at the tutoring center at a college in suburban New York, where I helped students in pre-calculus and every level of biology offered at the college. I also taught online for a tutoring startup for several years, and my most recent online tutoring has been for a prominent English immersion company, where I've completed over 6,000 ESL classes to Chinese students in the past three years.
I Love Tutoring Because
I place a heavy emphasis on the value of teaching a student how to work independently and gather information for themselves. If I've done this job well, a student won't need as much tutoring support in the future. That said, one thing I love is that I never know exactly what issues a student will have, which requires me to think quickly to respond effectively to their needs. It's very cool to see when a student realizes their potential to learn and acquires the skills to think for themselves. I learn for fun, and that "bonus knowledge" often finds its way into my tutoring sessions.
