What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
What I love most about tutoring is being able to see the student's progress week by week as they begin to understand the concepts more thoroughly, especially the moments when they finally understand a topic. I also love being able to act as a mentor for them, someone who can guide them through problems they encounter in their academic lives.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
My strengths include: - patience and willingness to explain concepts a variety of ways until there is one that the student understands - my own solid mathematical knowledge, meaning that I am able to solve most maths questions very quickly - a genuine desire to see the students improve - willingness to prepare thoroughly for each lessonMost important things I can do for a student 🏅
The most important things a tutor can do for a student are: - listening to the student's questions rather than dismissing them - truly caring about the student and both their academic and overall wellbeing - ensuring that the student truly understands concepts in-depth - providing students with someone who they can look up to and ask for help whenever - preparing well for each lesson to ensure that lesson time is not wastedTutoring students in 👦 👧
