What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
Whilst I don't have any previous experience in tutoring, reflecting on the times I was in tutoring, I found the most enjoyable aspect to be the relationships formed with peers and the tutor. It was reassuring how despite in school I found it difficult to rely on peers and even teacher for help, tutoring, because of the supported learning environment it provided, was something I could depend on if I was struggling with my studies.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I believe I have a fairly good understanding of the mathematic and chemistry syllabus but I think my strengths as a tutor lie more into my patience and empathy. I don't have a unique high school academic or social experience and I believe that strengthens me as a tutor as I would be able to understand, to some extent, the position a student is in. I believe the empathy I am able to experience for a student would help me to work well with them as I would, hopefully, be seen by them as someone who is non-judgemental, understandable and someone who could genuinely help them in their struggles.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I believe being able to provide a dependable and welcoming support system for a student is one of the most important things a tutor should do. Based on personal experience, I struggled with finding and being willing to approach teachers at school for help and support with studies. However, it was because I was able to turn to my tutors, who I found to be incredibly welcoming and supporting, that I was actually able to perform well in school even without significant help from my school teachers. Tutors who provide a welcoming and dependable environment are valuable to students' growth.Subjects Tutored 🎓

She has developed a strong understanding of measures of spread and centre and how we can use them to make judgements about data sets. She was able to make meaningful comparison of data sets using these measures. She also recalls well the approach to some algebraic questions.
Practicing simplifying algebraic expressions is needed as silly errors here and there were made. Additionally the use of brackets when making substitution is needed to ensure any calculation errors are avoided. Otherwise I think she did quite well this lesson.
