What do I enjoy most about tutoring? π
I enjoy promoting motivation and passion for learning and helping students find the best ways for them to study effectively, seeing the results at a pace that continues to positively encourage them to keep progressing.My Strengths as Tutor πͺ
I am able to empathise with students and work with them on how they learn best (which teaching methods and study methods are most effective for them), and I am good at working slowly through things and preventing frustration from working at something too hard for too long. It is important to keep trying even in difficult subjects, but even more important to prevent discouragement from study altogether.Most important things I can do for a student π
Helping the student not only improve their studies, but learn how to better study and learn independently when at home/in school. It's one thing to be working in a short tutoring session, and another to continue the work in ones own time.Subjects Tutored π
