What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I enjoy the one on one interaction with students. I like learning more about my students and tailoring the subject to suit their interests and link to what they already know. I also enjoy seeing them progress in their studies and get better at math or science after my help.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
The ability to make a subject interesting and applicable to a student's life. My students can see the passion that I have for my subjects and they would be able to appreciate what math has to offer in their lives. For even students who are failing, I break down what they have to learn and improve step by step, so that slowly they are able to make progress and even outpace their peers at school.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I place a lot of emphasis on the student's understanding of the subject material. Science and Math is about understanding and connecting concepts rather than memorizing. Secondly, I will examine the student's problem solving process, and guide them to improve their workflow. Thirdly, I make the subject interesting and relevant to the student such that they would be invested in their learning.Subjects Tutored 🎓
