What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I enjoy seeing other people improve and gain a better understanding. This is the main reason why I have helped my friends and sister, but I also generally enjoy helping people when I can.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I am: - Organised - Patient - Enthusiastic - Encouraging - Able to explain information in a variety of ways I see these characteristics as strengths as they will enable me to help the student by preparing efficient and effective sessions that help the student better understand content and grow in confidence regarding their ability in the subject.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
While it is important that the tutor helps the student with their understanding to improve their grades, I believe it is ultimately more important to help the student grow in confidence and gain an understanding into how to study efficiently and effectively. Although the tutor can play a key role in helping a student improve their grades, the onus is ultimately on the student to continue to complete their work and consolidate their understanding. Thus, a tutor should offer a guide by showing the student how to achieve this by teaching them how to take effective notes and complete questions.Subjects Tutored 🎓
