What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I really enjoy watching students progress in their learning. Seeing their excitement when they are able to understand their work and content, gives me a feeling of satisfaction, joy and pride. I want students to feel proud of themselves and the what they can achieve.
My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I am very passionate about teaching and tutoring, so I never give up until I know that the student is confident in their learning and has understood their work. My aim is to provide and uphold a safe and encouraging learning and social environment for students and teachers to make them feel as comfortable and supported as possible. I am able to adapt and modify my teaching behaviours and styles where necessary in order to make the learning as smooth as possible for the students. I am highly driven and motivated as a teacher, especially when I can see that my teaching has had an impact on them and their learning. I always try to ensure that I can cater to all my students and their learning needs as well as their personal needs, where appropriate when they are seeking advice on personal matters.
Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I feel that encouraging students and pushing them to their full potential is so important. Some of the time, students aren't aware of what they are capable of and what they can achieve in their learning and I feel that paying attention to their strengths and areas of improvement allows them to recognise their potential.
