What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I enjoy interacting with people and love giving encouragement as it gives me joy to see positive growth in my students. At the same time, I develop myself by learning different life perspectives through interaction with students.
My Strengths as Tutor 💪
• Deep understanding in university-level chemistry knowledge as indicated by high distinction weighted average mark during study period at UNSW.
• Adept in creating study materials to guide students in understanding basic mathematic/chemistry concepts since high school.
• Strong interpersonal skill in working with students to guide them in developing logical thinking which will allow them to solve questions independently.
Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I believe that supporting students' confidence through positive encouragement is the most important thing a tutor can do for a student, because it empowers the student to develop their problem-solving skill independently without feeling pressured. I also believe that a tutor must encourage their students to enjoy learning for knowledge and not for the necessity to pass the test, as it equips them with great mindset for their future.
