What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
Helping students find confidence and a sense of achievement.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I have a Bachelor of Science (Biomedical Sciences). I am also completing my final year subjects for a Master of Teaching (Biomedical Sciences). I have 40 days currently in placement experience and had a taught Year 7s and 8s in Science as well as Literacy. I have also observed Year 12 Biology. I have also mentored Year 8 students one-on-one before. I have experience both as an educator, a student and a mentor with high school level students.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅

Alex gained confidence from practicing his multiplication using the Math is Fun website. Alex also practiced listing factors of numbers and using them to determine the factorized form of a quadratic expression.
I told Alex to keep using the Math is Fun website to practice his multiplication and keep building on his retrieval.
I helped Alex better understand perfect squares and how the equation works. Alex picked it quite well.

Still needs more help with simplifying and needs to be a little faster at recalling multiplication.

I printed out a flow chart to help breakdown the process of factorising quadratic equations. I felt like it was a really helpful learning tool and helped Alex to better understand the process.
Alex needs to build on his knowledge and practice with algebra and clarifying the steps involved when using a method such as factorising. There is definitely improvement showing and little by little he is chipping away at the relevant concepts.

It was good to meet face-to-face. We revisited the factorization of binomial expressions. We worked from a textbook that I had and Alex completed some practice questions. I also had a look at his school data to see areas that he needed more help with.
Over the following weeks, we will need to build on this knowledge and become clearer with the process of factorizing as well as applying algebraic principles to more complex questions.
