Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: Before diving in to the assignment, I initiate each meeting by engaging in conversation. Showing sincere interest in who someone is creates an open atmosphere that encourages trust, and attests to there being a true desire to see the client succeed and learn. Furthermore, with each correction made and suggestion given, I support the correction and suggestion by verifying that the client understands what has just occurred and by asking if there are any additional questions so that learning and adapting happens progressively. Seeing a noticeable change of understanding is what I appreciate and like most about my job. People may say that they understand something; but results are not clear unless the client can recite back to me what was learned and shows the corrective action through a follow-up, error-free example. It is the proof of a difference having been made that I like the most about my job.

I received a quote from LaunchPad To Learning Foundation for "Life Coaching". I left a message asking when I could speak with her. I received no response. Later, I noticed that she also works as a tutor so, after not receiving an answer the first time, I left her another message. I asked a question (on May 21) about her experience and what she does as a Life Coach. That is what I received the quote for. I waited up until June 10 for her response. This was the second time I initiated contact. As of today, there has been no response from her to either question. It is 1 day short of 3 weeks. This is a terrible business practice. How can she improve in the future? She would do better to refrain from providing quotes for services she is not willing to provide or discuss. By providing a quote for viewing and then not responding to a request to speak, she is, in effect, giving the appearance that she does not value the other person's time.

What impress me about Cara Clayton is that right away she started working with my son. She started seeing what is interesting to him and she combined that with a learning activity. She take her works seriously and she is dedicated to her work. She knows how to work with children and teenager. I highly recommend her.

Ms Cara has been an outstanding portal to assisting my daughter with her struggles in reading comprehension and related elementary subjects. My daughter has become a more enthusiastic learner. Her teacher says he also see the improvements in her grade and confidence level. Ms. Cara is a good investment into your your child's academic success.

Clara Clayton is a great tutor! She knows what she is doing and provides outstanding communication. I have worked with her via email so far and my experience is great. I love working with her. My writing skills have certainly improved thanks to her.

FAQs

  • How did you get started doing this type of work?

    My undergraduate degree taught me that making an interpersonal connection with a person will influence a favorable outcome with that person. After years of practicing this, I noticed how easily it is for me to make this connection with people. When teaching areas as fundamental as reading and writing, the same scenario applies; after having a conversation, speech and thinking patterns can be detected, which will give clues as to the best ways to convey a lesson so that the person can better understand the lesson.

  • What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?

    Before hiring a provider, try and gauge whether the provider is interested more in helping through teaching or in helping through completing the assignment.
