I have been a teacher for more than 5 years now so I have alot of experience with changing the way I teach to suit different learners. Along with a strong understanding of the concepts helps me to meet all students needs.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
The most important thing a tutor can do is empower the students. Often they will feel afraid of failing at the subject material. A tutor should build the students confidence to ask questions and really engage with the material. The tutor must emphasize that learning is a process and the student should not get discouraged.Subjects Tutored 🎓
