What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
Although I have never formally tutored, through my experience of mentoring younger peers in a cadet leadership position I can relate to the rewarding feeling of watching someone progress - both in their knowledge and your ability to connect with them.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
Simplifying complex concepts not in a mundane way but one that engages the student, as well as diligence and the ability to connect with others.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I believe one of the most important aspects is empathy. Empathy not only in giving them true confidence that they can achieve more than what they believe is at their threshold of intelligence, but empathy in understanding what foundational concepts or struggles may need to be covered.Subjects Tutored 🎓
