I think that my strengths as a tutor are these: I've shown that I can be patient (not least because I need patience as a school crossing supervisor); and I speak very clearly in lucid English, so that the chances of meaning being misperceived are greatly reduced.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I believe that the most important things which a tutor can do for a student are these: to stress the need for forward planning and for regular timetables; to encourage where necessary; to break down large tasks into manageable portions; and to clarify hitherto obscure matters.Subjects Tutored 🎓
