What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I enjoy seeing students improve in their study area as a result of the assistance I provide via tutoring, which ultimately enables them to reach their desired academic goals.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
As a tutor I am able to work through problems and concepts the student finds difficult, attempt a simpler problem to understand a more complex one, identify mistakes of the student and correct these mistakes and provide ideas of new study techniques/methods that are effective for their particular subject.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
It is very easy for students to feel disheartened if initial targets are not achieved, and hence as a tutor it is important for me to continue motivating students to reach their goals. In addition, no person is the same so every student tutored will have different strengths and weaknesses. As the tutor I would cater for the differences of each student during the sessions because ‘one size doesn’t fil tall’ hence it is important to be patient as the time taken for one student to understand a specific concept or problem will not be the same as another student.Subjects Tutored 🎓
