To look for someone that can explain things in a variety of ways and will nudge you just enough out of your comfort zone.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
What can I figure out on my own? What do I need help to figure out? What terms are confusing me? What point do I understand up to? What is something I've learned in the past that is similiar to this? What tools do I already have to solve this?
