Verified Tutor
What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
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 💪
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 🏅
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 👦 👧

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.
