Verified Tutor
What do I enjoy most about tutoring? đ
The idea behind helping somebody to understand something that they don't. The pure look of awe on their face when it finally clicks, and they feel confident in their abilities.My Strengths as Tutor đŞ
My ability to adapt to learning styles. One student I am tutoring now is extremely visual, meaning she has to read questions and draw out answers on paper. I tend to steer away from verbal questions, and asking to do things mentally, and instead I provide working out paper and whiteboards to assist with a thinking process.Most important things I can do for a student đ
Establishing a personal relationship. Building this relationship can build the professional relationship too. Students wont be afraid to ask for help and are comfortable in saying they don't understand something.Tutoring students in đŚ đ§

Despite Tiff's distaste for this subject, she was still keen to tackle it. She did well to pick up new content, and even displayed some strong calculator skills to make solving questions easier.
Because Tiff find the topic boring, she will likely be less inclined to review content. Hopefully this will not be the case :)
Tiff did well to apply previous knowledge from univariate data, and picked up on new concepts well.

Tiff needs to let me know what we are working on in advance to our sessions. I assumed we would still be doing univariate data today, but she had already moved on. It is useful to both me and her if I can briefly revise the content before coming to the sessions.

Tiff had completed her review, and barely got any questions wrong! She had completed 3 chapters of review since our last lesson, which shows a great level of dedication.
The questions that Tiff got wrong were just from small mistakes. Tiff can complete more complicated questions, and will likely go too fast on easier questions. She should treat each question the same amount of effort, regardless of difficulty to maximise her marks.
Tiff already understands how to solve a majority of equations, and displays strong logic and reasoning skills for questions she doesn't know how to do

Tiff and I need to communicate more. It would be better for me to come prepared to a session, rather than showing up and asking what she would like to work on.
