What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I enjoy having the opportunity to empower students to gain confidence in their abilities. Witnessing those moments of clarity when a student truly understands a concept they initially struggled with is highly fulfilling. It's incredibly rewarding seeing how a newfound understanding can build a student’s self-esteem and inspire them to tackle future challenges with enthusiasm. I also enjoy creating meaningful connections with students, tailoring my teaching to suit each unique learning style, and I love being a mentor figure for them in both an academic sense and in general life.
My Strengths as Tutor 💪
My strength as a tutor lies in my ability to break down complex ideas into simpler, more digestible components, making challenging topics approachable for students. Through my time as a PASS Facilitator at The University of Sydney, we regularly used the Socratic Method of teaching, whereby we would ask thought-provoking questions, facilitating the students into breaking down the concept on their own terms, empowering them to tackle complicated topics. I am also highly patient and empathetic, which creates a supportive learning environment where students feel comfortable asking questions.
Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
It is essential to foster independence and confidence in a student’s learning journey. This involves helping them grasp concepts and equipping them with effective study strategies + problem-solving skills to apply across subjects. Equally important is creating a space where students feel supported & motivated, encouraging them to stay engaged and take ownership of learning. This involves being patient and not presumptive – I’ve had intelligent tutors who would presume I understood concepts, which makes sessions intimidating. Rather students need to finish feeling productive and confident.
