Creative. I try to make learning fun. I believe that the problem is that kids don't find learning fun so they don't want to do it. I've been tutoring my classmates, neighbor's kids & friends for a long time in specified subjects and with specific assignments. My speciality is a tie between Social Studies and English. My favorite moment is when they get that look in their eyes when they finally understand something and say "Oh! I get it now!"
