I've been a classroom English/language arts teacher for 30 years, in both middle school (the last 18 years) and high school (the first 12 years).
For the last 10 years, I've taught 8th grade Humanities , a course which blends literature, language arts, history, social studies, geography, current events, civics. etc.
When I do private tutoring, I want to find out the student's interests, and shape the on-going tutoring time around those interests. So if your child is into baking but needs some help with grammar, you can bet that some of the practice sentences in the tutoring session will be about chocolate chip cookies.
If you surveyed the hundreds and hundreds of students I've taught or coached, I think they'd agree with this statement: I make class and learning fun.
