What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
As a university student, I've found that tutoring has its own unique rewards. I really enjoy seeing a concept click for someone who's been struggling and finally figuring out the problem. Tutoring also tests my patience and communication skills, and I feel I've grown in both areas. I also enjoy how tutoring is a two-way street. I often find myself learning from those I tutor, gaining perspectives that I never would've thought of on my own.
My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I pride myself on my patience and empathy, which help me maintain a supportive and encouraging environment for my students. I also have strong communication skills, allowing me to articulate concepts effectively. Importantly, I'm adaptable, adjusting my teaching style to meet the unique needs of each student. Lastly, I enjoy it, therefore the work and connection with the student comes easily.
Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
Understanding the individual needs and learning styles of each student is crucial. Also, fostering a supportive, non-judgmental environment is key for students to ask questions freely and grasp concepts without worrying about making mistakes. Lastly, finding alternative strategies for solving problems is very important if the student is stuck on a question.
