What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I enjoy being able to improve myself in teaching in order to be able to help more people when they have difficulty approaching a question. I like that tutoring allows me to meet new people and I've always liked the idea of revisiting topics that I have done before as reteaching them also simultaneously helps me retains the information much better and hopefully also share the tricks and gimmicks I used to understand the subject better.
My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I have developed critical thinking skills and throughout my teachig experience learnt how to handle the different paces of students. Those who are more adept are able to follow the efficient and quicker methods that I present. Those who are slower I take the time to explain and write out all the operations needed even if it may be the longer route.
Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
Give their time in order to further assist the student and go the extra mile instead of doing just enough. This can heavily impact the student's learning experience as they know that there is someone willing to help them improve. I believe that there shouldn't be overworking the student but the student shouldn't be too relaxed when working. This is so they enjoy the learning experience instead of wanting the session to end quicker. Student's should also be taught to understand the topic and not memorize the steps to reach the result as that would enable them to answer different types of question.
