What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
- The pleasure of seeing students prosper and accomplish their goals. It really is priceless.
- I see tutoring as a pleasure (often it doesn't seem like work to me!).
- I especially find it rewarding when students who find a concept difficult to grasp have that 'light-bulb moment' and suddenly they understand what I am trying to explain.
- Tutoring and learning should be a fun process!
My Strengths as Tutor 💪
- Amicable
- Approachable
- Always readily available
- Patient
- Non-confrontational, but appropriately assertive when it is needed
- Be able to deconstruct a complex concept into something more simple that makes sense to the student(s) I am teaching
- Polite and respectful (and hope this is reciprocated)
- Excellent communicator
- Adaptable to each and every student I teach
Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
Be patient at all times, not 'label' every student as the same (every student, including myself has their own way of learning), be flexible and adaptable, be available and be able to give their student(s) their undivided attention, be able to guide and nuture in a positive manner when a student is struggling.
