What do I enjoy most about tutoring? π
I like the interaction between student and tutor which leads to an easy time communicating and understanding each other. I like to see the improvement of my students throughout time and being able to be there when they achieve their desired results.My Strengths as Tutor πͺ
I bring passion to the table as a tutor. I want to be able to provide my own knowledge to the students that I am teaching in as many ways as I can for hopes that they will be able to understand. I am also a willing and fast learner, I'm able to quickly learn material and understand it before anyone else. I am able to manage my time well enough in order to get the most out of preparing for the class and the different ways to approach that day's lesson.Most important things I can do for a student π
One of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is provide assistance as that is the main objective of being their tutor, mentally, academically and emotionally. I understand that being a tutor does not mean being a councellor and a supporting individual for the student but during hard and harsh times, I find it appropriate for the tutors to be a listener in cases where the student is confused. I also believe that the tutor must have the caliber to handle the students they are teaching and with the same amount or even higher levels of passion for learning.Subjects Tutored π
