What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
Watching the students grow and improve their abilities has to be the most rewarding. However, imparting knowledge from subjects I am truly passionate about such as mathematics and physics can be very enjoyable.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I think my strengths would be patience, enthusiasm, and passion. With these three I am able to provide support for the student by creating a comfortable learning environment, fostering fun and eagerness to learn, whilst providing insightful knowledge stemming from my diligence to constantly improve on my own learning.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to help them deeply understand the underlying concepts. While assisting with difficult questions can be helpful, empowering students with fundamental knowledge and the confidence to tackle any problem independently enables more effective learning and accelerates their growth.Tutoring students in 👦 👧
