Part-Time
Tuition/Teaching Experience
During high school, I volunteered as a peer tutor, helping other students to edit and improve on their work, ranging from poetry assignments up to history essays. Students I worked with ranged from Korean students who did not speak very good English all the way up to those who just needed a second set of eyes to look over an assignment. Students whose papers I helped always came away feeling satisfied, because I would take the time to go over every detail of the essay from word choice to flow and organization, which in the long run was extremely helpful to them in improving their writing. (During my final year of high school, I also volunteered to proofread a lot of my classmates' university application essays.)
I am able to start giving tuition sessions immediately. During the period of August 2013-Dec 2013, I am free on Mon-Thurs afternoons and evenings, Friday evenings, and weekends (my classes will change after that point, so my tuition schedule may have to be shifted around as well.) I am however able to commit to long term assignments.

As a Good Tutor
I think a good tutor is first and foremost patient and knowledgeable. They must be able to communicate clearly and effectively with both students and parents, as well as get the student interested in the subject. They should not be excessively strict, yet they should be able to keep order and win the respect of the student and the parents.
