What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁

The epiphanic moments that students have when understanding concepts, even when they get the concept wrong. It shows me that the students are understanding that there are more ways of thinking to get to the same results. When they get answer correct this reinforces existing correct thinking, and repetition is a core of learning. When students get an answer wrong this builds resilience, and as a tutor, putting in the effort to support that mindset is well worth the outcome of student success.

My Strengths as Tutor 💪

My best strengths as a tutor are my patience and adaptability. Patience is a valuable skill, and by exercising that I can de-escalate situations, and show students that rushing into things is not as good as taking time to understand a problem first. Adaptability is crucial for learning and teaching. I tend to learn content and am ready for teaching quickly, as well as understand student behaviour. Being able to pivot when things go south or are progressing slowly is necessary as not to discourage them from trying something outside their comfort zone.

Most important things I can do for a student 🏅

I have been inspired by educators who encourage their students' learning and find different ways to teach the same concepts. For students who struggle, helping them understand basic/intermediate concepts is a big step. Getting quality responses and correct answers by themselves builds confidence in student learning, and creates positive feedback loops in which they are more likely to persist in trickier problems. For independent students I believe challenges are most important, helping them expand existing interests and knowledge bases, as well as aiming beyond their target goals.
