What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I love that I can help others realize how easy learning is once you develop the right skills and understand how your own brain absorbs information. I have recently been diagnosed with ADHD and although it explains my struggles it has now affirmed that the skills I learnt to achieve my academic goals were not only useful but necessary to achieve the success I am proud of. Now that I have finally achieved my goal of getting into a top, internationally recognized Medical program I want to pass on these skills to others and allow them to realize their own dreams are possible.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I am aware that it is sometimes extremely difficult to understand information when it is presented in only one manner. I think I am very good at showing students different ways to look at the same problem and in turn help them figure out their best personal strategy to retain information. In addition, I am a person who optimizes my study instead of maximizing the hours I study. Thus, I am also aware that most students do not want to study for hours on end and I have found numerous strategies to get great grades without spending endless hours forcing focus. Instead learning should be exciting.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I think simply put a tutor should give a student confidence that they can learn anything that is presented to them. It might take a different approach than they initially thought of but my job is to show them these different approaches.Subjects Tutored 🎓
