What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
Getting to see intelligent and passionate students become more confident in their own abilities. This is one of the most important skills to have as a student, so to watch students become more sure in themselves over the course of a term or semester is extremely gratifying.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I am willing to accomodate each student's individual learning needs and can easily adapt to these needs spontaneously as needed. I enjoy fielding questions from pupils and do my utmost to be as welcoming and encouraging as possible, so that students feel comfortable to approach me with any 'stupid' questions they might have.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
A tutor should guide a student towards the right path, but not provide all the answers. The tutor should create a safe and welcoming learning environment so that students feel comfortable making mistakes and learning through their own experience, not by being overwhelmed with information. A tutor provides the support and encouragement their pupil needs to flourish in their own right and become a more independent and self-confident learner.Tutoring students in 👦 👧
