I assess the needs of each tutee, and tailor my tutoring style to his/her specific needs. I make sure to approach each session with enthusiasm and positivity, pointing out a tutee's strengths as well as his/her weaknesses. I am very flexible with the needs of my tutees and I am willing to work with him/her on whichever assignments or needs he/she may have. I believe the relationship between tutor and tutee must be one of mutual respect, and my goal will always be to empower my tutees to perform at their absolute best ability.
