What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I thoroughly enjoy teaching students, providing support throughout their learning journey, and, most importantly, witnessing their enjoyment. An example of this is the 'rocket challenge' I conducted with two Year Six classrooms (60 students) in person at a local primary school, as part of Engineering New Zealand's Wonder Project. I taught them the fundamentals of rocket design and basic physics, as well as carrying out practical sessions where they launched their own rockets. The experience was incredibly rewarding as I observed the students' excitement and eagerness to learn each week.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I have a background in civil engineering and have been working as a civil engineer for the last four years. Prior to that, I studied engineering at the University of Canterbury in New Zealand. Consequently, I have a solid understanding of mathematics, physics, and engineering studies. Working with students in the past, I have found it crucial to be patient, as learning is a gradual process that takes time to develop. I believe I can effectively communicate ideas clearly and in a simple and effective manner.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I think it is important to teach the fundamentals so that students have a clear understanding of the basic concepts. I believe it is also important to clearly communicate ideas so that they can then communicate them clearly themselves. Moreover, it is crucial to encourage students to think critically by giving them the opportunity to independently think and develop problem-solving skills. I believe it is very important to encourage students to ask as many questions as possible. It is also important to keep the students engaged throughout the learning process.

Always try break down the word questions, and draw the various diagrams out to help visualise the scenario.
Luke has shown progress in each of the problems we solved. Particularly when expanding binomial expressions and rearranging equations.

Continue to practice solving for x and y when given a quadratic equation.

Luke can simplify equations quite quickly. Luke is good at factorising algebra equations.

Luke can expand binominal equations well using the FOIL method. But just needs to remember the step to group up the like term to simply the equation. Luke can rearrange linear equations in terms of a particular variable well for 90% of the steps, but just needs to remember the signs in front of the variables to get to the final solution i.e. positive and negative signs. Please pass on a copy of the marked test paper so we can try focus on those questions. Or if we can get the topics that were covered during the test we can work on that also.
