What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I really enjoy the aspect of relationship building with students. I have found that it is nearly impossible to build a trusting relationship and provide meaningful support to a student without putting time in to truly know them as an individual and not just a student. There is something so special about working through something a student is struggling with and finally finding the solution that helps them understand (and maybe even enjoy!) it.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I believe that my past experiences as a tutor and teacher have contributed to my ability to personalize lessons for individual students (finding new approaches to problems, incorporating materials that align with their interests). Furthermore, I think empathizing with students and being committed to working to their success are two more strengths I bring with me as a tutor.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
First, it is essential that a tutor provides support tailored to that student's needs, learning process, and interests. Second, a tutor must approach sessions with patience and understanding, while avoiding negativity and behavior that may discourage their student. Overall, I think creating an environment where a student feels seen and heard by their tutor is essential to a successful tutoring session.Subjects Tutored 🎓
