A copy of my resume can be found here: https://sites.google.com/site/xiaowensamli/resume ------------------------------------------ Tutoring Experience: 4 years --Why I chose to be a tutor: * I love to use my knowledge to help other students in need, whether it is for supplementary or enrichment purpose. * I have witnessed situations where students fails academically because of lack of good instructors, and I want to help those students to fully utilize their potential through encouragement and goal setting. --What's special about my tutoring style: * I despise the belief that "a student is too stupid to learn something". Anyone is capable of achieving greatness. * When I tutor, I first find out the strength and weakness of a student, then design personalized study plans for each student. * I provide full after-class supports to students when necessary (Ex: extra study materials, keeping track of a student's performance at school, etc) For your reference, I can provide you the contact information of past students I have tutored. ==================================================== Some achievements that are not presented in my resume.
