I HAVE THE ABILITY TO MAKE THE TEACHING MATERIAL MORE CLEAR TO STUDENTS AND MORE UNDERSTANDABLE. I AM VERY COMMITTED TO SEE STUDENTS SUCCEED. I HAD A STUDENT WHO COULD NOT GET CERTIFIED TO TEACH, BECAUSE SHE KEPT FAILING HER MATH PRAXIS TEST. BEFORE SHE HAD ME A SHER TUTOR, SHE HAD TO TAKE HER MATH TEST FIVE TIMES, AND SHE FAILED IT EVERY TIME. I UNDERSTOOD THE AGONY SHE WENT THROUGH, SO I SET MY MIND TO GET THIS STUDENT TO PASS HER TEST. I SPENT QUITE A BIT OF TIME WITH HER, I DID NOT CARE WHETHER I EXCEEDED THE ONE HOUR AND DID NOT CHARGE HER FOR THE EXTRA TIME. I WAS DETERMINED TO HAVE THIS STUDENT PASS. SHE FINALLY PASSED HER TEST. SHE CALLED ME ON THE PHONE CRYING AND TELLING ME THAT SHE CANNOT THANK ME ENOUGH. BECAUSE OF MY DEDICATION AND DILIGENCE, SHE IS NOW A CERTIFIED TEACHER. |

We made three appointments with this tutor--she said she would Mapquest directions to our house, which many people have done successfully. She did not use Mapquest, and called for directions after she had left her home. She wrote them down, she said. She called again from a landmark three blocks away and got more directions, but was disoriented. She never made it to the house and did not call to say that she was giving up. |
