What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I love communicating with student to understand their level of understanding and preferred style of learning, in order to break down the learning concepts into comprehendible components and make the process easier. Seeing the progress made in the sessions by the student is very fulfilling, so this is what drives me to provide my best service.
My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I would say communication is one of my greatest strengths as I take the time to get to know the student and their strengths and weaknesses in order to more efficiently combat the learning task at hand with them.
Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to provide them with the essential building blocks of knowledge before trying to reinforce hard concepts, in order to help the student have a fleshed out understanding of their learning objective and feel confidence in their understandings.
