Tutoring @ TJ’s

I viewed a few of the sample tutoring exercises and I think they have some significance to them. The math exercise was of particular interest to me mainly because I understood it the best. You can tell by the way that they went from point to point that they are working off of the same principles that we here at TJs work off of. Take for instance they way that we are told to start a topic off. The problem was analyzed by the person being tutored rather than the tutor. Also, the tutor made use of being on the computer by being able to show things on the graph using graphics. Interesting things like that would make smarthinking a good idea. On the other hand, I feel that tutoring is a real personal exercise that is very difficult to do over the phone or even over the internet. There is the personality that is missing when on the computer that fails to make the person being tutored feel welcome. I feel that the atmosphere is not as sympathetic or warm. I personally would never visit a site like this or recommend it to anyone with a real problem that they do not understand.
