Verified Tutor
What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I love excelling in academia, and naturally, I have found that people tend to gravitate towards me for help. I love being a role model to people, and leveraging this being able to do just more than teach them lessons. I love the looks on their face when my students are entranced in teaching, or their woops of joy when they work something out themselves. Finally, I myself love learning, and the dozens of perspectives I gain while tutoring me not only strengthen my relative outlook on life, but make me a better tutor so that I can help even more people.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I think that the most important part is not having your students understand the coursework, but rather have the tutor understand the student. I like my first session to understand the student's struggles, needs and wants, and this is where I think I prevail in. I am good at isolating where the student struggles, and I know how to push them into understanding things themselves and helping them broaden their horizons, which I have found is more effective than simply showing them how to solve an equation or tell them what they're doing wrong.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
As I outlined earlier, a teacher's or a tutor's sole responsibility is not to teach academia, it is to serve as a role model and to help their students grow as people. I think it's so important to treat students as adults, no matter their age, (Of course with a little sensibility applied) and even more importantly as an individual -- to not apply some default script to each student, but rather to be dynamic and engaging with each little peculiarity of each student.Tutoring students in 👦 👧
