I have four years of experience in a tutoring setting. I prefer a consistent routine within lessons. I prefer the first 5 minutes to be about small talk, i.e. what you did for the day, a good thing that happened to you, etc. in order to practice basic conversational skills as well as create a more trusting bond that will allow us to work better together. I find that sometimes kids don't feel comfortable expressing the ideas or topics they don't understand, so creating this bond would help prevent awkwardness or fear of embarassment.

I will come prepared for the lesson with a plan that we can go over, touching on areas that are weaker or need better enforcement. We can also go over whatever in school the student needs help with. I am a patient, flexible, and interested tutor who would love the opportunity to help.
