What do I enjoy most about tutoring? π
Previously, I had been admitted into a Bachelor of Actuarial Studies Program at UNSW. After gaining the opportunity to a number of internships, I found that my passion did not lie in applying mathematics in a corporate or business setting. My true passion lied in sharing and teaching mathematical concepts to young people and building a good foundation for them so they can do what they love in the future. People usually question why I switched degrees despite attaining such high achievements. However, it is the people that I have taught that truly understand my profound love for teaching.
My Strengths as Tutor πͺ
The ability to consistently provide solutions to all people. I am currently ranked first in mathematics within the cohort of second year Macquarie University students. Despite this, I always give up my time to help other students perform well and they greatly appreciate what I do. I believe it is my passion for mathematics and continual research in this subject that makes me an outstanding tutor. I am an extremely organised person and that means I am almost always never late. Having experience in a corporate environment, I am also well presented; namely I dress formally to all occasions.
Most important things I can do for a student π
Being able to meet the needs of the parents and students. Every student is unique and they have goals that they wish to achieve. Although these goals may be similar, I believe a tutor must listen attentively and work towards these particular targets so they can achieve what the student desires. A tutor also has to establish a sense of trust. This can be done by providing the student an opportunity to seek support outside of the face-to-face lesson. From my experience, someone that can go that extra mile and offer that additional assistance will only portray a trustworthy and credible tutor.
