What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁

Seeing students grow in confidence as well as skill. It is an added bonus if students also come to like the subject they may have once dreaded.

My Strengths as Tutor 💪

Patience, enthusiasm, flexibility of approach to suit different learning styles, genuine respect and love of young folk. I have extensive experience teaching and supporting students with specific learning needs in mainstream schools.

Most important things I can do for a student 🏅

Engage students by first helping them to appreciate the advantages to them of improving in the subject area (including discussion of the student's goals), listening to the student, helping them to feel confident to articulate their difficulties without embarrassment, and then keeping dialogue comfortable as tutoring progresses. Building confidence, competence, resilience and independence is always the aim, in my view. As an adjunct, my years of experience in explicitly teaching organization and study skills, as well as exam techniques, may be beneficial to students at secondary level.
