I must admit, for a math teacher, I had terrible grades in school. I always thought I wasn't cut out for a scientific career. When I decided to become an engineer, I had to start from zero and learn everything by myself. At first, I would have been incapable of passing an eight grade math test. Months of hard self-taught work led me to develop a study method focused on deep understanding of a subject rather than mere information retention. Through this project of becoming a private tutor, I hope to become the person I needed most a few years ago. The person that can, in addition of helping a student succeed, give them the motivation to learn. "Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day, teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime"
