The only sample of tutoring I had was with literature and a bit with a kid I was helping to read easier, but yeah, I'm neither patient nor organized enough for that. ;) But yeah, it seems easier or at least more pleasant to do, when you're teaching someone who wants to learn.

Kids can be pushed by the parents, even when they're fed up with the subject and that just gets annoying to everyone involved. :/
