What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
With some students you get the feeling that you have become an integral part in their learning and possibly even their educational life, and in the rare occasion they let you know.
My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I have a unique approach to teaching and education in general, coming from a strong theoretical physics background. However, with many years of teaching from yr 12 up to senior university physics, I have a good understanding of the principles and concepts and especially how they relate to mathematical frameworks. But I think most of all, I have developed an understanding of people and their pressures and challenges in progressing through education.
Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
The most important thing by far, especially that I have found over the years, is to have a presence that shows genuine concern for the student's understanding. I believe tutors bear much more of a responsibility than they let on. In my experience, the way a tutor approaches a problem with a student, no matter how trivial, can mean the difference between a negative experience or a future career pathway.
