I just had to share this because it's been a total game-changer for me. I originally hired a private tutor for statistics, expecting just to go over formulas and homework problems. But my tutor, this grad student named Sarah, has somehow evolved into this incredible mentor.
Last week, I was having a total meltdown about my major and future career, and she just calmly helped me map out my strengths and interests. She shared her own winding path through college and made me feel so much less alone. Now, our sessions are half stats, half life strategy.
She’ll help me with a regression analysis, then we’ll talk about time management or how to approach a professor for a research opportunity. It's like getting a therapist and a career counselor bundled with the math help. Honestly, best money I've ever spent, not just for my grades, but for my sanity. Has anyone else had their tutor turn into an unexpected mentor?
