What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
The thing I enjoy most about tutoring is making a difference in someone's life by helping them feel more confident in themselves and their skills. It is rewarding to know that I have improved an aspect of the student's life, no matter how small that is.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
As a tutor, I am able to communicate effectively with a wide variety of students of many ages and abilities. I can tailor my teaching style and presentation of content to them and what suits them best. I always strive to go above and beyond to prepare for each student and plan lessons that will be most effective for each individual student.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
A tutor has the opportunity to encourage confidence in students. Not solely confidence that they can achieve highly, but confidence that they can give anything a go and learn and improve as they do. A tutor can present things in an engaging way to encourage the student to be open-minded to things they may have discounted because they seem difficult. Helping a student adopt a positive mindset towards their academics is one of the most important things a tutor can do.
