My washington-dc">tutoring experiences include providing homework help for middle school aged children at the Boys and Girls Club and serving as an in-class assistant at New Vision Learning Academy. While volunteering at the Boys and Girls Club, I was able to interact with students and build mentor based relationships. Working as an in-class assistant allowed me to develop and implement organized strategies to help students that were performing at a lower level than the majority of the class.

In order for a washington-dc">tutor and student to accurately pinpoint the student's problems or areas of desired improvement, the student must feel comfortable expressing their difficulties.
