Verified Tutor
What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I enjoy the problem solving aspect, and the teamwork that needs to go in so that someone can become better. I also enjoy the feeling of being able to help. I understand how it feels to surpass what I thought I could do thanks to the help of someone else, and I hope to instill that kind of confidence into those I tutor.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I often find it easy to create constructive criticisms when looking at the work of others. I understand when providing feedback not to overwhelm who you are helping, but work on creating a strong foundation of their skills, and tend to their strengths. I am willing to learn with my student and be engaged with the learning even if they may not be.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I think communication with your student is important. As a tutor, you can not force a student to do things your way, so it's important to be able to compromise and help them with what they think is important so they don't lose interest in a subject, whether it is a struggling student or one that wants to excel. By involving them in the process you also help your students decision making and social skills.Subjects Tutored 🎓

About Io
My Academic Life
As a child I personally found myself struggling to stay enthusiastic about school, and did not excel at school in ways my friends did. Even though I felt I was struggling, I passed, and in high school I began to understand my studying difficulties and how to amend them. By the time I was in Year 10 I was part of the 10A Mathematics class and continued to get A's even in the classes increased difficulty. In college I did Specialist Methods Maths, along with English, Drama, Sociology, and Philosophy, where I competed in Ethics Olympiad and came 2nd nationally. I am now a first year student at University of Canberra studying a Bachelor in Built Environment Architecture and have found a new love for learning, doing classes like history and culture and professional orientation.
My Daily Life
I'm the only daughter in a family of 6, and I am the second youngest. I spend most of my time on my studies or spending time with my friends, and I occasionally pick up theatre performances, both for cast and crew. After graduating College and spending a gap year as a barista, saving up money for a year to then go to Europe in October for 6 weeks. I learnt many historical facts and life experience during my time within England, France, Spain, Italy, and Greece, and would love to travel again.

She was tired again this week which lowered her enthusiasm, but I think doing something fun encouraged her to think harder during the lesson.

He was enthused to do his work again today. He didn't quite understand the point of the 3 different spelling bees, but the results showed improvement in his spelling.
He seems to copy what is prominent in his mind, so in future we'll make a habit of doing spelling bees at the start of each lesson so he can improve his recall during the rest of the lesson.

He completed his work efficiently today. He was enthused to do some work from his books. Whenever we do a spelling bee he has the habit of staying quiet and listening.
None, he had a good attitude today and was very focused. When completing spelling bees he should spend more time considering his answers.
She seemed to begin to see the similarities of bar graphs and lines graphs by the end of the lesson.

She seemed exhausted by the end of the semester. It made it hard for us to do work because she didn't have the energy to focus. More work on line graphs so she is more confident on how to read them.
