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 🎓

About Manar
Expertise in the Sciences
Having completed a Bachelor's of Molecular Sciences (majoring in Nutritional Biochemistry), and currently pursuing a Master's in the same speciality, Manar has a complex understanding of human sciences. Despite this, she has studied and tackled many other fields including: Physics and Psychology at a university level, making her well suited to adapt to many subjects
Teamwork and Leadership Skills
Manar has been a part of her high school's student council, as well as being involved in numerous leadership tutorials (such as the ABCN Goals Program). She has experience organising events and guiding guests. She is able to take initiative and be spontaneous, if needed.
Creative Endeavours
In addition to her knowledge in the sciences and maths, Manar also writes short stories in her free time. She has a strong grasp on the way language flows in creative writing, and her peers have congratulated her for her prose. With this, she is able to assist those struggling in English. Additionally, Manar has a keen eye for picking up subtext and analysing creative media.

Assignment was to write a story inspired off Twin Peaks. When I asked how to do this she responded well and even quickly came up with the plot for her own story.

Very reluctant to start writing. I urged Emma that despite having a great sense of plot creation, she struggles to actually put pen to paper to bring said story into the world. Getting her started with writing itself was quite challenging as she was very caught up with what to do rather than letting the writing naturally flow to her. Unfortunately, getting better at creative writing is something that can only be achieved by practice.

Getting much better at analysis independently. Identified a lot of examples without much prompting. Much quicker at getting a start with writing compared to before; Emma used to get stuck on her paragraphs but writing went rather quick and smoothly this lesson.
While she is good at identifying examples, she still needs some work at identifying with techniques they relate to; still she has improvement here. Overall, she also needs to watch the text more critically as she wasn't sure/didn’t remember quite a few examples when writing her paragraph

She was able to answer many of the questions in the paper independently with greater detail than before. She seems to understand how conventions are used and what they mean in film a bit better than in novels.
She can really benefit from watching more films and visual media. Score/Audio is a very important technique (and gives good straightforward marks) but she wasn't sure what the different types of scores/sounds denoted. I think she should really tighten on what the definitions for all the techniques are; she mentioned there were a lot and she gets overwhelmed by it; but having a good understanding of just the most important ones can go a long way

-Understands what to look for, but not what the terminology associated with it is called. I gave her a glossary for her first lesson and I recommended she look at it more -While she can pick up annotations, she doesn't know what to do with them, or how to use them in her responses. I think that is her biggest weakness
