What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I love giving children opportunities to learn new skills that they can use in their futures. I enjoy teaching children because when they are struggling and I offer assistance, it is the best feeling to see them master a certain topic.
My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I am very patient, I can repeat my methods over and over again. I am able to scaffold children and ensure they master something. I am always willing to help out where I can. I am empathetic, able to adapt, able to communicate easily.
Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
Give moral support and guidance. As a tutor, I don't give answers or solve the student's work, I want them to be able to solve it themselves and use their critical thinking skills with their knowledge of subject content. Subjects can be tough, as a tutor, I need to find ways to convey the same subject in an easier, convenient way to understand it. One of the most important things is to adapt my lessons for the student, some are advanced, some need extra help and I am there for them.
