What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I enjoy helping people feel more confident in their skills, and I enjoy sharing my knowledge with other people.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I am a very patient person who is able to walk students through difficult subjects with kindness and without judgement. I am also good at breaking down complicated concepts into simple ideas and express them in multiple different ways.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
Provide a stable and consistent source of support in their education, while simultaneously being a person they are under no pressure to impress. Since tutors have no influence over their lives outside of tutoring, students often feel comfortable asking us questions they would feel embarrassed or "dumb" for asking a parent or teacher. Tutors also provide value to students by offering 1-on-1 instruction that can be tailored to their individual learning style.Subjects Tutored 🎓

I need to prepare more work for him to do next time. Hamish definitely needs more focus on his English skills than on his math skills.
