Verified Tutor
What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I really enjoy helping others and watching kids become more and more confident in their maths skills and capabilities. I find it really rewarding when kids get more confident and begin to enjoy their work more.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I have a really positive attitude and a high level of patience. I have no problem going slowly and helping others. I think the genuine enjoyment I get out of helping others makes me a better tutor because I actually want to help others and hence I can easily share my enthusiasm.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I think it is most important to be patient and understanding as they work through problems. It's important to keep in mind the fact that just because you see the solution and can understand, doesn't necessarily mean they will too. It is also really important to maintain praise as they get things right or head in the right direction, so that they gain confidence.Tutoring students in 👦 👧
