What do I enjoy most about tutoring? π
Tutoring is a job where you decide the direction of your role. There is no one looking over your shoulder, and there is no one holding your hand. You are thrown out into the studentβs world, and you learn to adapt on the fly. This independence really does help develop your problem-solving, decision-making, and time management skills. Not to mention, the flexibility of tutoring means you can balance your commitments if anything else in life comes up. As a tutor, you have the power to decide what to do with your responsibility.

Patience
My passion for my profession is undoubtedly my greatest strength. I believe it reflects in each lesson, in each talk I have with the students. They can feel that I really want the best for them, and try my best in each lesson, which of course motivates them to also try hard, or at least to stay disciplined.
Most important things I can do for a student π

And the attitude they establish is largely determined by their surroundings.
You know how the class they are in at school has a big impact on how well they perform? A different teacher and a different group of classmates can make a big difference sometimes. Well, consider that when we're talking a private one-on-one tutor, the difference here
