What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
Helping students to achieve their full potential. Sometimes it can be a struggle to understand certain topics, and that can often to lead to students feeling down and demotivated. With tutoring, you are able help these students overcome that barrier. So, not only can tutoring help the students academically but maybe even with their confidence.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
Admittedly, I have never tutored, so I am unable to make a comment based on past experiences. However, I am able to understand how frustrating certain topics can be (I was never the best at math as a teenager). So with this, I am able to be patient with the student and guide them slowly to understanding the topics at hand. Furthermore, I tend to work more creatively and visually, through use of diagrams and allegories. Meaning I am able to better translate walls of text into easily digestible chunks.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
A tutor needs to teach a student, obviously. But more importantly, a tutor needs to empower a student. To make them break through barriers they wouldn’t have thought were possible, to achieve their potential, plus a little more. Tutors should also be more personalised, not so just a second teacher. Tutors should recognise why this specific student is requiring assistance on this topic and tackle these setbacks. They should make sure the students goes beyond memorisation and into application, to understand why we teach these topics.Subjects Tutored 🎓

Did very well on the composing section and has a knack for creating interpretative texts quickly. Also getting better at SAR when she has learned common, generic techniques like diction and syntax.
She has good ideas but still struggles with the “explanation” part of TEEEL in her paragraphs. While this is fine at Year 11, Year 12 really looks for deep analysis in the explanation part of their response.

Getting better at reason but struggles putting thought to paper. If allowed by teacher, she seems excited to do an essay on a studied text. This is beneficial as I noticed she works better with texts she likes.
Some more comprehension practise needed and Emma relies too much on my input; more independence needed
- Independently wrote the paragraph well and derived some good points on her own.
- Independently wrote the paragraph well and derived some good points on her own.
- Emma was quite reluctant to change her spellcheck habits. Eventually, though, I did manage to sway her; hopefully she keeps this energy - Seems to be particularly poor in double consonant spellings (e.g writes “opose” instead of “oppose”) - Doesn’t use commas when she should. - Overall, spelling, grammar and punctuation and large weak points that she needs to tackle, and they are holding her from an easy pass
She made some very good points independently, and when I asked what she wanted to write about, she was able to answer mostly on her own.

She still didn't really like engaging with the text (I can sympathise, as only a small part of the text can be analysed/is relevant). She also needs to know how to write properly from the points she is given. She can develop points well on her own, but she struggles with execution. I also told her to work on her spelling/punctuation; another weak point.
