What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I enjoy working 1 on 1 with students, encouraging them and giving them the confidence to embrace their knowledge and skills, and help them to really understand what the subject is about.
My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I am a retired teacher, with many years experience in all branches of maths, as well as chemistry and physics. I know and understand what students are required to know, and I am able to simplify the difficult concepts, to help students to understand.
Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
Support the student's efforts and give him/her confidence in his/her ability to succeed in the subject(s).
