Experience
I want to be a tutor because I love to help kids gain confidence in general, but if you are good at something in school it can really be a game changer. I have always loved working with kids! I grew up being a counselor at church day camps, and that eventually turned into being a camp counselor in Michigan over the summer after I graduated from college. I own my own business as a wedding planner, but after having been both a counselor and nanny, I am missing the interaction with kids. My favorite subject was always math. I loved finding the pattern of a problem and using another pattern to solve it. It was always so rewarding to find the right answer. My ideal tutoring situation would be very personalized, where I would set up a meeting with the child's teacher and walk through what they are being taught and the child's specific difficulties on previous tests in the subject. That way I know first hand what needs to be worked on and how I can customize the learning process just for your child.
