What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
One of the most rewarding aspects of tutoring is fostering my students’ growth and confidence in their learning. I value the opportunity to guide them from initial hesitation and difficulty to a stage where they actively engage with and enjoy the subject matterMy Strengths as Tutor 💪
I believe my strength in tutoring lies in developing creative and tailored approaches to each subject or topic, ensuring the learning experience meets the individual needs of every student. If a student does not grasp a concept through one method, I am proactive and adaptable in exploring alternative strategies to help them understand.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I believe the most important role of a tutor is to be understanding and to identify the root cause of a student’s struggles, building their learning from that foundation and gradually guiding them to a point where they feel confident and comfortable with the subject.Tutoring students in 👦 👧
