Always take a patient approach. Students looking for a tutor are doing so because they are having difficulty; understanding this and moving at the pace that they learn is very important.

Figuring out where the student is at is the first step. Asking a few questions and learning what they know is crucial - from there I can target what they don't, and begin to work with them.

I can teach them good habits, where they might find additional resources to answer questions they might have, and how to work their way through problems on their own by taking multiple approaches to a single question.

Showing that you're knowledgeable and that you're there for the student can be relieving for them. Let them know they can contact you with any questions and do your best to let them know they are capable and can succeed!

I would take it slow, and make different approaches. I'd walk through multiple examples that cover the concept, and find different ways to explain it until I find one that my student clicks with and take it from there.

Some of the best techniques involve problems that relate to the real world. A lot of people struggle with math (for example) because they think they may never use it, but applying it to something the student is already interested in tends to cement ideas better than arbitrary problems.

It's important to make sure the student knows that they're progressing. Staying positive and letting them know that you can see their improvement and their progression is primarily how it is going to be done, in addition to a better performance overall.

You ask them questions and have them answer problems given to them. Observing these is typically enough.

Learning to be flexible is very important. Try to teach different ways. Be the teacher that they need you to be, and you'll have the most success.

I have a good-sized whiteboard that I like to keep handy. It's really good for trying to explain concepts and way easier to work around than typical college ruled paper and pencil.

Tell them to take it slower and make sure they understand what they're reading as it is being read. Don't move forward until you understand the context, and if there are words you don't understand and can't figure out based on the situation, look them up.

Being friendly and polite tends to give me the best success. Starting off the relationship as a friend helping a friend complete a task, rather than being the guy that's there for a very strictly finite amount of time then bailing does no one any good. I'll be there to try to provide my student with the best results possible, and to do that, you have to be there for them.
