What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I most enjoy getting to see a student's confidence build as they take in new material and get to practice the skills that we are going over. This looks differently for every student and I appreciate getting to assist students in their learning journeys.
My Strengths as Tutor 💪
As a tutor, I am engaged with students and am focused on their unique needs and goals. I am flexible in my tutoring style and am able to alter the ways that I discuss various topics, and find it meaningful to gain feedback from students to ensure that we are using an approach that works best for them. I am comfortable discussing mathematics at all varying degrees of difficulty, and can help students to feel more connected and confident with their maths skills. I'm also passionate about spreading a love of learning and want to help all students to believe in themselves and achieve their goals.
Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
It is important for a tutor to listen to a student and to learn what their strengths, struggles, and goals are. It is then important for a tutor to communicate in a clear and engaged manner, to ensure that material is described in an effective way. Tutors should also be open to all questions from students and should address these as much as needed. And throughout this process, tutors should be re-evaluating to see where students are still struggling and may need more support, as well as where they are building their skills and may benefit from validation and challenges.
