What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I find it incredibly rewarding witnessing those "eureka" moments when a student grasps a concept they've been struggling with. It's incredibly fulfilling to see my teaching bear fruit and the student gain understanding in a subject.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
As a tutor, one of my strengths lies in my ability to communicate ideas in a clear and accessible manner. I'm always thinking up ways to break down difficult concepts from different perspectives, and developing various examples and analogies to help students understand unfamiliar topics.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
As a tutor, the highest priority to students to teach them to understand the motivations and purpose of study. Though understanding course content is important in its own right, I believe learning to learn, critical thinking, and structuring arguments are the skills that stick with the student past high school and into university and the workplace.Subjects Tutored 🎓

I believe Chase will do well in the upcoming HSC, if he is willing to review the content he is unfamiliar with and put in the effort to practice. Good luck!

Chase would again occasionally make minor errors, this time often due to misconceptions or content not being sufficiently covered in class. We will continue to work through a variety of topics to root out misconceptions or identify areas of improvement.
Chase was able to consider multiple perspectives in his analysis of Billy Elliot. He raises great arguments and ideas about the narrative elements of the film.

I encourage Chase to consider the multimodal/production elements of Billy Elliot (musical score, camerawork) for greater breadth in his response. I also encourage for his thesis statement to be more specific with the ideas/themes/arguments to be presented.

Chase was engaged and diligent in our first lesson. He clearly understands which topics he is comfortable or struggling with. He has great maths intuition, often having the right idea or approach to a problem.
Chase might occasionally make minor slip-ups or careless errors in his calculations. I encourage him to show his full working in an appropriate level of granularity, rather than skipping steps and risk confusing himself by compacting too many operations in one line.
