What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I haven’t taught a school subject however I have been teaching swimming. I really enjoy seeing the happiness that occurs when a student finally understands or does something they have been struggling to do.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I am patient and will not give up to make sure that the student understands the topic as much as they can.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
Build a safe and friendly environment with the student as if someone perceives their tutor in a negative way they won’t want to learn. Making sure that the students are happy and understand everything i try and teach is the product of this environment.Subjects Tutored 🎓
