What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
There are two things I enjoy the most when teaching/tutoring.
Firstly, is the nature of the process. Learning how to communicate with them, how they better understand things and developing their knowledge along the way. It is always amazing to see the students change.
Secondly, is the aftermath. Watching a person who grew in confidence, who is able to solve things for themselves and enjoy doing it. And, the best part is how thankful they are for that.
My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I take great care on understanding how each student learns, and would say that, being able to adapt to their style is my biggest strength. For instance, if I realize that a student understood a concept well based on an example, I will repeat that form of teaching.
Also, my passion for teaching truly helps. I think by seeing my interest with the subjects I teach, students (mostly the younger ones) tend to get moved. This makes teaching lighter, and an activity instead of an obligation.
Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
To always be humble. Everyone has difficulties while learning something new, and having a tutor that does not make you feel bad for asking questions and trying to fully understand the content makes all the difference.

1. Student understand the quotation mark, and knows when to use. However, she forgot sometimes. 2. Student is improving in punctuation, and learning how to use ?/!. 3. She got used to asking me to research how to spell words she does not understand, which is a great beginning. However, she needs to develop a better understanding of spelling. In other words, she often misspells things without her knowledge at all. 4. Student learned cursive writing as a bonus.
It was great that she could learn cursive, but the focus of the lesson was to much on it, and that is not a necessary thing. In other words, and it was the tutors (my) fault, this lesson missed some focus.
