What do I enjoy most about tutoring? π
I enjoy the feeling of seeing a student achieve a subject or a topic that they've been struggling on for so long. The delight on a student's face and their realisation of understanding is something that is very enlightening and empowering. As well as this, I enjoy guiding students to a potential that they haven't tapped into, and making them happy because of their education.
My Strengths as Tutor πͺ
I believe that I'm extremely adaptable in strategies and techniques when it comes to tutoring. Having a clear understanding of a student's skills, boundaries and challenges is something that I strongly consider as one of my strengths, and then navigating those student(s)' challenges through interactive and impactful teaching, as a following strength. Furthermore, I'd hopefully consider myself as friendly and approachable, which is definitely a keystone in tutoring, as tutors should be kind, guiding and someone students can go to for their educational, and sometimes emotional, problems.
Most important things I can do for a student π
A tutor needs to provide support and consideration of a student's abilities, and empower the student to achieve beyond what they think they can achieve. In particular, for younger students, I believe that tutors can and will help to lay the foundational stones that will provide the driving force to empower students to their best. Even if a student's skill in mathematics, or English, or any other subject 'isn't the best', tutors should and can provide a new perspective and understanding to how the student can improve their skill. Practice makes progress.

About Leanne
Hi! I'm Leanne.
I've been doing primary school tutoring for around 3 years, volunteer and paid, and secondary student tutoring for roughly a year. I specialise in English, English as a Second Language, Literature, primary school mathematics, Music (theory and performance) and Biology - however I am also extremely flexible in other subjects such as Economics, Philosophy, basic physics, etc.
What can I do for you?
Of course, I can tutor, and improve your child's skills. However, I can also support, guide and provide extra assistance to your child in whichever way they may need, and I am able to act as an additional contact for your child should they need any help. My times are extremely flexible at the present, therefore, it would not be an issue if you or your child would like additional lessons or help.

Saxon's understanding of math processes and skills are better with prompting, and he is able to do all the questions I have given him.
Saxon has issues with applying the knowledge in tests. He is able to use math skills, but in the wrong applications, which I am concerned about. He can do 'template' questions, however when it comes to questions where he is required to use multiple skills, he is unable to puzzle out what processes are needed for the question. His worded comprehension for maths problems are also weak, which will be worked on for future lessons.
Ethan has a stronger understanding of how to structure a body paragraph, and his introductions and conclusions are becoming more concise in his ideas.

Ethan still needs help in learning how to find evidence in the context of his novel, as he has good ideas for his prompts, he just needs the supports.

Similar comments to last week, he's improving with conciseness and has further understandings of the structures and processes that are required of him in order to achieve above the standard.
Similar comments to last week. I've gone over a few techniques with him, such as mind mapping, so I will check on his improvement at a later date.

Saxon seems to have an understanding of the subjects for his test, and was able to complete the average questions that were in his practice test, especially after prompt and review. He has remembered most of what Iβve gone through with him, and his confidence with certain maths topics has grown in comparison to starting.
Heβs still having trouble applying concepts to problems, and identifying key words that signal to him what process to use for which problem, especially when it comes to worded problems.
