What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I personally most enjoy the connection I create with students. I’ve always enjoyed working with kids, and being able to watch them grow and learn. One of my favorite parts of teaching is when a child who has been struggling to understand something – whether it’s multi-digit multiplication or crafting a thesis – finally has that light-bulb moment and is able to independently apply all the strategies I have taught them.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I'm very outgoing and I find it easy to make strong personal connections with the students I teach. Through building a rapport and having kids be excited about coming to tutoring, I've found that their excitement translates into a greater ability to learn things which they may be struggling to learn in a classroom setting. I also excel in being able to break down complex concepts into simple steps. In doing so I aim to identify what a child is struggling with, taking a step back to the foundations and making sure that there is a strong base of knowledge from the ground up.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
Oftentimes I have found that children who are in tutoring struggle with their confidence in their work. Especially with younger students, I believe the most important thing is showing them how to trust their own decision making skills, and finding ways to make learning become fun and engaging in new ways.Tutoring students in 👦 👧
