Ben S.
Private tutor in Santa Cruz, CA
Education
B.A. in Psychology from Princeton University--class of 2009
Experience
SAT reading: 800 SAT math: 720 SAT writing: 800 Graduate of the National Outdoor Leadership School (NOLS) Education is often presented as a passive process--students are 'filled' with knowledge from someone in a position of intellectual superiority. But the Latin work 'educare' really means 'to draw out'--to bring out some capacity that already exists within the student. I'd like to approach tutoring from a similar perspective: not just providing information, but engaging in an active process of learning and growing alongside the student.
