What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁

The most I enjoy about tutoring is being able to teach the kids while encouraging them to reach their true potential. I used to tutor my younger sister, my cousin and kids in my neighborhood. I get immense happiness when children excel in their exams. This motivates me to put my fullest in helping them to do even better.

My Strengths as Tutor 💪

I handle kids with patience, teach them with practical examples and I will be repeating the topics until they understand it thoroughly. When I was teaching mathematics to my sister, I used to teach the topic of 'addition' with apples and balls around me. Though I was not patient enough in the beginning, eventually with 8 months of experience I became more patient. I realized the importance of tutors in shaping a kid's future and I became even more responsible when tutoring the children.

Most important things I can do for a student 🏅

Apart from teaching subjects tutors play an important role even in shaping a kid's soft skills. Tutors should have empathy towards the kids, understand their struggles, be it personal or academic issues and help them out in all possible ways. Tutors should consider themselves as parents of the kids they teach and act accordingly.
