Hey what do you find in a tutor that I need to know about?

Question

There no wrong answer!

Answer 1

This is definitely based on your style of learning. I would say to find someone who doesn't just give you the formula or textbook answer to a problem, but instead explains the methodology behind the answer. Like in math, if you can illustrate it with a picture and be able to show based on that how the formula is derived, the tutor is great for me.

Answer 2

A tutor who is adaptable is really important! You want someone who can work with your particular learning style and adapt their materials and plans to your needs.

Answer 3

The biggest thing a tutor can have is a real connection with their student!

Oftentimes, students come into sessions nervous, skeptical, or even embarrassed by their lack of understanding. If a tutor can't break down the barriers and create a comfortable working environment for the student, everything else is moot.
