Career Experience
My first educational job was teaching for a company that ran afterschool chess clubs. Since 2008, I've been running a K-12 homework help program at a library popular with Somali-American youth. I also run games for kids there over the summer. I've been with Tutor.com since 2009.
I Love Tutoring Because
...one can make so much more academic progress when one works with people one-on-one. I also like using and sharing the knowledge I've accrued. Tutoring is a bit of a puzzle--you have to figure out what knowledge or understanding is missing from the student's mind and figure out a (hopefully elegant) way to provide it. Moreover, tutoring can help me fill in the gaps in my own knowledge. :-)
