What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁

I very much enjoy writing and the opportunity to pass that skill on to others. There's something deeply satisfying about putting together an articulate an eloquent essay that perfectly captures what the author intends to communicate. I think its an important skill that everyone should learn. Furthermore, I was a personal trainer for many years and have always enjoyed the one on one component of educating another human being. I have always found it to be very fulfilling on both a personal and professional level.

My Strengths as Tutor 💪

I think I'm personable and have alot of life experience. That experience has resulted in my having a great deal of patience and understanding. If a student isn't grasping the material then there's no sense repeating it in the same way. Its up to me to be creative and communicate with the student in a way that appeals to each individuals way of learning. Not all students are the same and I like to think I'm always mindful of that. This was something I practiced readily as a personal trainer. Not all clients are motivated in the same way and the best results occur when we utilise that knowledge.

Most important things I can do for a student 🏅

I think a really good tutor is capable of making learning exciting and fun. The best way to do this is to clearly communicate why someone is doing what their doing and to find ways for the student to connect to the material on a personal level. This is something I strive to do with all students.
