Re: Anybody had tutors before?

Why not throw in my two-cents?

I'm a tutor in the Math Learning Center here at Michigan State University, and I know some people who make good use of the Math Learning Center, and it has helped them tremendously. But like Craig said, this has a lot to do with the willingness of the student. Case-in-point: I was helping a girl the other day, who told me she couldn't set up a word problem to save her life, but was unwilling to practice. She basically wanted answers for which there was no simple one (I suggested a strategy, but I'm assuming it was largerly ignored). Tutors are a nice thing to have, especially if the enjoy it and are, of course, competent.

Hypography?
