What do I enjoy most about tutoring? π
I find teaching really enjoyable and rewarding. I like the challenge of formulating explanations at the right level for the individual pupil, as to challenge their understanding and build good foundations of their knowledge. It is great to see someone light up when they understand a concept or problem.My Strengths as Tutor πͺ
An extensive technical background, understanding of the content, good attention to detail, patience, and a motivation to help students. I am always willing to answer questions and I believe my kind demeanour makes me approachable.Most important things I can do for a student π
Apart from the obvious requirements to provide sound academic knowledge and advice, the other aspect of tutoring that I consider most important is getting the student excited about learning. The best teachers have a successful balance of both aspects. When a tutor is excited about the content, that will get the student excited as well.Subjects Tutored π
