What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁

In my previous studies, I have benefited immensely from being tutored so I enjoy using my knowledge to assist other students. Tutoring is a fulfilling job but it also helps me develop important skills such as communication, creative problem solving and decision-making skills.

My Strengths as Tutor 💪

One of my strengths is adapting my teaching methods to assist the student. For instance, I had a student who preferred learning about the topic and equations and going through a few basic questions and then continuing on their own. Other students preferred to learn the content and dive right in only asking questions when they get stuck. By altering my teaching method, I was able to be more helpful to both of them.

Most important things I can do for a student 🏅

Breaking down the new topic into small attainable goals. It can be overwhelming learning a topic you are not confident in so it is important to set reasonable goals or breaking the topic down into smaller sections. It is also helpful to celebrate when they reach all the small goals. Another thing is encouraging them and also giving useful feedback. Sometimes for a certain concept they need to be encouraged to change their learning method. Another tactic that is also incredibly effective is creating a sort of game to make the topic fun especially in a group setting.
