What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Find a tutor who you can build a strong connection, ongoing relationship, and trust with. There are many tutors who can teach, but you will gain the most by finding one that you greatly respect, trust, and look up to. As a student, I learned the most from teachers who knew how to connect with me rather than just blandly sharing the information.
