I can tutor biology, basic English skills, writing skills, history, and basic mathematics to K-6 to K-12 students.
I am willing to explain how something works to a child in order for him to understand concepts and not only pass a test.
Question and answer
Q. Why does your work stand out from others who do what you do?
A. People are not like computers. Students are not learning why something are, and why these things work in the way they do. Many tutors teach formulas, equations, and the use of memory but not why and how. If a student understands how and why something works, they will have good grades.
Q. What do you like most about your job?
A. The curiosity of children and being able to explain to them how something works instead of preparing them for tests.
Q. What questions do customers most commonly ask you? What's your answer?
A. The most common question is distance. Distance is a variable, and my answer is that sometimes I might travel and sometimes the student will have to travel.
