I've been a tutor and teaching assistant at the University level now for 8 months in the subject of philosophy. The method that's worked for me is to allow the students to ask any particular questions they have on the subject, and then for us to move onto the prescribed coursework. Due to the formal academic setting, sometimes students are not entirely forthcoming about a problem they might be having; I like to think that my casual style allows this edge to be broken.

To quote Mark Twain, "The difference between the right word and the almost right word is the difference between lightning and the lightning bug." Just as there is no perfect word, there is no one way to learn those words. When I first began to feel good about my writing was the day I stopped worrying about the "right" way to do it. It is when we get hung up on the particulars of a problem that we lose sight of a solution. When I was younger I had a difficult time with my English classes, not Read more
