What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
The best thing about tutoring is the connection you make with your students and seeing them grow and progress along the way. I teach with a "growth mindset" which means that any mistake is welcome and addressed and it's amazing to see students come out of their shell and ask questions knowing it's encouraged and supported.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I believe my main strengths are communication and problem solving. I am capable of identifying what misconceptions students have in a particular area and breaking down those concepts until it's understood. In addition to that I use various approaches when trying to get a student to understand a concept which which has proven to be a very useful skill.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
The most important things would be to make the student feel supported and encouraged. Mistakes should be celebrated and addressed in a positive manner to promote thinking and learning. The student should feel comfortable asking questions of any level without feeling judged.Tutoring students in 👦 👧
