I have very strong communication skills and have constantly proved to be able to build a rapport with students of all ages - I am very approachable and reliable. I also am proud of the fact that I am thorough and diligent with my work which I think is a value that is passed on to the student.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
To get them engaged and interested in a subject or topic. Although it is good to just teach the student how to pass the exam, I believe that by truly engaging and motivating a student they will get the most reward and the best results from their work.Subjects Tutored 🎓
