What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁

I always wanted to help people see Maths as something which isn't scary, and help them learn the concepts which can be troubling at times. It's quite tragic how poorly maths education is handled in victoria really, causing people to literally treat it as some sort of nightmare to never wake up from. It's quite literally traumatic for students.

My Strengths as Tutor 💪

Even in spite of The VCAA's meddling, I just adapted by learning these new concepts found in the new study design by using resources from HSC or other places to ensure that I stay up to date. I have the ability to solve problems and communicate in a way which people generally will understand it. In fact I will usually try to solve problems in an alternate method just to see whether it is easier to understand/faster.

Most important things I can do for a student 🏅

Whilst an understanding of the content is important, tutors should understand the way they present examples and what these examples include can stress students or cause them to have misconceptions. They should be willing to extend the understanding of students but understand the dangers of pushing a student "too hard." Personally I used to be clueless about combinatorics, but enough determination is able to overcome these struggles. And really, putting in the work and doing right is good enough.
