What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I enjoy being able to share my passion of education and learning with other people as this provides me with a great sense of fulfilment. I find helping others achieve their best possible result is very fulfilling and is something to be proud of and the bond formed with the student is very special.
My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I am a very patient person who will explain things in great detail and at a slow pace to ensure my student isn't overwhelmed. I am also able to provide a genuine connection to my students as more than just a tutor through building a bond with them that will further enhance their enjoyment and ability to learn. I am able to provide in depth resources and my own personal experience with VCE exams and the best strategies in order to tackle challenging problems that seperate the cohort across the state.
Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I think the most important thing I can do is provide an enjoyable experience for the student as this is what will allow them to engage with the learning and have the ability to improve their studies. Furthermore I will always have the students best interests at the front of my mind, so that I can ensure they are getting the best possible assistance to allow them to achieve their goals.
