What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
Those lightbulb moments when a kid who's really been struggling suddenly gets something and it all falls into place.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
Finding different ways to explain things - I teach computing students at university and many of them have very limited past experience, so thinking of analogies that work. People say I'm friendly and empathetic. I have a very strong mastery of the subject areas and continually upgrade my knowledge and my library of resources. I value ethics and professionalism and treat students with respect.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
Most importantly, listen! A lot of students don't know where they are struggling but give it away with the questions they ask or the steps they take to try and solve problems. Have more than one method or way of explaining things. People have different learning styles and different past experience to attach new things onto. Being organised, so the tutor can pre-prepare some materials to help the student.Subjects Tutored 🎓
