Experience
I have been tutoring for the past 6 years starting in high school. I teach classes to students from 2nd grade through high school in groups, but I also have 4 years of experience tutoring one-on-one. I scored over a 2100 on my SAT and enjoy the test. I have tutored people for the SAT as well as for AP classes. I enjoy being a tutor because I remember how hard it was for me to get some of the bigger concepts in school. However, once I worked hard enough and was able to understand it, it was the best feeling in the world. I love being able to help others understand how to do things that have given them so much trouble in the past. I love hanging out with kids and helping them learn not just as a teacher but as their friend. I've found that teaching down to students isn't as helpful as when you interact with them and stimulate their minds. Keeping them alert and happy will help them both accept and retain information better. Some of the people I have tutored in the past have asked to connect with me on facebook because they didn't think of me as just their teacher, but as someone they could relate to and feel comfortable around.
