What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I really love working with children! I enjoy teaching them and helping them, I've been tutoring my sister for years.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
- Patience - Good understanding of subject matter - Multilingual (English, German, Afrikaans)Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
Listening to their questions, as many children are too scared to ask questions in class, and I hope to provide them a safe space for this. I also think it's important to be flexible, to work with what the kids need. Especially with younger children, who may not necessarily know what exactly they're struggling with.Subjects Tutored 🎓

Picked up division quite quickly, it was his first time really doing it but already understands how to divide with skip counting, etc.
He understood place value very well, there were a couple places he was a little unsure, but by the end of the lesson he was a pro!

This was apparently the first time he had really practiced writing out numbers, however he caught on very quickly, and his spelling has been improving quite significantly.
The calculations themselves went very well, once he understood how they worked.

Didn't quite remember the formulas/how to calculate area, perimeter, circumference.

Some of the more specific irregular plurals he didn't know, but my aim was to expose him and make him aware of them, and the plurals themselves will come with time.
