Synergy

8/5/2014

 
Synergy is defined as 


"The interaction or cooperation of two or more organizations, substances, or other agents to produce a combined effect greater than the sum of their separate effects"


-Oxford dictionary
This is exactly what occurs in a great tutoring session: a combined effect greater than the sum of it's parts.  A synergistic session can have the same impact as multiple sessions and many hours of independent studying.  In order to create the right conditions for synergy to occur you definitely want both parties bringing their best to the table.  On the student's part: a willingness to learn, energy, focused attention, questions, and a positive attitude are what's needed.  On my part, the tutor, a contagious enthusiasm for the subject at hand, clear explanations, encouragement, patience, insights into the how's and why's of problem solving.  

When you are having a synergistic session learning becomes easier and more fun with less effort. Read that one again! Easier, less effort, more fun?!  So even if math is at the bottom of your list just pretend for a moment that you really want to learn it, ask some questions, really concentrate, and bring a positivity too your tutoring sessions and watch and appreciate what synergy can do for you!
