What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I most enjoy motivating students to exceed the expectations they have of themselves. I was a student that lacked confidence at the start of my HSC but because of the motivation of an exceptional English tutor, I performed at band 6 level across my subjects. I want to offer this experience to students. A chance to out do themselves and prove that they can be exceptional and have a brilliant time doing it.
My Strengths as Tutor 💪
My strengths as a tutor are my engaging character, compassionate nature and my passion to motivate students. I am industrious and creative when it comes to how I can help a student understand a concept. If one explanation doesn't work, I think of another way to explain. I have practical experience in tutoring students and creating resources for students such as worksheets and mock exams. My patience and openness to recalibrate my tutoring approach is another of my strengths and something that makes me stand out as a tutor.
Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I believe a tutor can completely transform a student's in the best way possible. The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is be an exceptional leader. A good leader is someone that can be relied upon, someone who motivates and supports. A good leader is as good a listener as a speaker. I believe, a tutor's obligation is to inspire a student in their chosen subject and give them the confidence to perform at their best. The most important thing a tutor can do, is bring out the best of a student.
