During my senior year of high school, I was involved in a lot of tutoring to meet my volunteer hours but in the process I realized tutoring is something I am genuinely passionate about and it deeply interests me to work with children and help build their academic and interpersonal skills.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
In terms of what makes me a good candidate for this program, I have been a volunteer tutor in the subjects of numeracy and literacy for kids in grades 3-6 at my local community center throughout my first year of university. These experiences have contributed to my capacity to build skills such as patience, active listening, communication and collaboration.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
