Working as a tutor would continue to satisfy my love for anything literary, working with others and serving the community. I think what would make me a great tutor is my love of learning, passion for books, compassion for others, good listening skills, a mutual understanding of how difficult studying a subject in school can be, in my case math, my positivity and my patience. I want to be a tutor so I can be a part of the process of helping to educate students so they can pursue their future goals.
