What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I enjoy working with young people and seeing their improvement as they grasp more concepts.
My Strengths as Tutor 💪
As a motivated and dedicated person, and having previous experience in tutoring both K-6 and high school students ensures I am prepared to work alongside the students to improve their performance and confidence in themselves. Through the 6 years experience in tutoring younger children who are primary school aged, I have learnt the importance of patience and clear communication, and have obtained skills in differentiating my teaching style to suit the students method of learning. More recently, I have began tutoring high school students in both general feedback and assessment preparation, as well as the English advanced and legal studies courses. This has allowed me to provide constructive criticism whilst ensuring the student feels encouraged and supported, and ensure I am providing simple to understand explanations for difficult concepts.
Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
Ensuring the student is comfortable within the learning environment and is engaged in the learning process, and explaining the concepts in multiple ways to improve their understanding. I am a highly committed person who genuinely enjoys learning new ideas and concepts. Despite this, I have struggled with stress and time management around assessments, and thus have personal experience around managing these time periods which can assist me in supporting other students in not only their academics but also their wellbeing. This is furthered by having personal experience with neurodivergent students including those with ADHD and anxiety. This has meant that I prioritise patience and connection with all students and ensure their mental health and emotional wellbeing is supported throughout their schooling, to contribute to a comfortable learning environment and increase each individual’s confidence.

Edie should continue to work on her times tables, as this will be most beneficial to her math. However she has improved and is able to answer faster - just working on automatically being able to answer rather than needing to count up.
