What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I enjoy having the opportunity to help strengthen a student's understanding in specific topics or the subject as a whole. I also find it fulfilling when students are eventually able to grasp topics they once found difficult, especially fulfilling if I can help build their passion for the subject.
My Strengths as Tutor 💪
Strong organisational skills and the flexibility to ensure that the students will have the most beneficial lessons (whether they prefer following the syllabus or having lessons tailored to their weaknesses/strengths). I also believe I have strong knowledge in stem subjects (maths and science) as reflected in my academic marks, which I can use to help students gain a deeper understanding of topics.
Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I consider building a student's confidence and possibly interest in the subject taught to be the most important. I believe confidence/ passion in a subject will translate well into their academic marks.
