Vincent I. - San Jose Tutor or Private Instructor

Profile of Vincent I.

Part-Time, 5 Years of Experience

In my academic and athletic experience, I've been subjected to beneficial and adverse instruction. What separates the two? As a student your 'job' is to learn; as a teacher, it is to teach. However, to finish each phase, the student does not learn for the teacher, they learn for themselves. On the other hand, the teacher necessarily teaches for the student. The teacher already learned what they are teaching. They cannot be teaching themselves. Given this implication, teachers should try their best to make individual students learn. Since it's obvious the material can be learned, poor achievement doesn't lie so heavily on the student's inability, as it does the teacher's. "There is more than one way to learn something." That is the premise behind why I like to teach. I just want students to learn, and if they don't get it I want to find the way that they will understand, because it's already a given that they can! I want to give students a boost in subject matter mastery! This means meeting for three to five sessions maximum. Afterward your student should be confident enough to continue progressing on their own! It's like riding a bike or driving a car. Parents, I'm well versed in financial matters too. Don't hesitate to get some of your own help from me.
