What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
Sharing experience, finding ways to adapt the content to a personMy Strengths as Tutor 💪
I have a good communication experience, having travelled all my lifeMost important things I can do for a student 🏅
I think the most important thing a tutor can do is listen to the student as much as teach them. If a student has any complaints, maybe approach the content differently, try to reach a compromise, or just find a better way to communicate that you want them to improve, and, most importantly, that they can.Subjects Tutored 🎓

Fractions and ratios are well understood in concept. Measurement unit conversion seems to be going well. (It's still very early) Easily finds way to simplify questions, the predecessor to a very large number did not scare her at all. The student has good and creative solutions when a question becomes complex, such as in algebra. Knows her 1 to 5 times tables well.
Should improve in higher number times tables (6 to 9). Needs to learn more strategies to solve algebra equations and make them less intimidating. Can begin to implement her knowledge of units in everyday life (building a box in cm, baking a cake and using both grams and litres, running 10m, 50m or 100m) to get a gist of scale.
