About Eli
As an actor, entertainer, musician, lover of literature and poetry, I will ensure that your child gets a well-rounded and unique tutoring experience.
I find that teaching and education in general can be dull, uninteresting, and frustrating for many people- myself included. I struggled with school for much of my childhood, and I believed that I was stupid. I know now that the teacher and teaching process have a lot to do with a student's success. I bring a uniquely engaging personality and mindset to my tutoring work.
I have been training adults for many years in the IT field. Additionally I wrote and taught a class at a medium security penitentiary for a few months.

Establishing rapport with a new student is always the first step- If a student doesn't trust me personally, they will never trust me academically.
Whatever the subject is, there is always something tangential to it that a student will be interested in. Focusing on existing skills and hobbies and linking them to the academic work is a surefire way to get a student invested.
I set up clear boundaries, expectations, and deadlines and encourage students to do the same for themselves. Teaching is a mutual excercise, and a student can only learn effectively if they know they have structure and clear, defineable expectations.
Mostly adults, training them for basic computer use and more complex IT concepts. I have also taught inmates in a penitentiary, which was a challenging and unique experience.
Just because you are struggling with a subject, it doesn't mean you are inherently bad with it. Sometimes a tutor is nothing more than another set of eyes to check work or a person to bounce your thoughts off of. Treat your tutor like a resource and don't be afraid to ask them for help every time you struggle.
