What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I enjoy seeing genuine results from my tutoring, and seeing how students move from doing something they believe they couldn’t do to being able to do it.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I understand the most effective teaching methods and like to use visuals to aid understanding and intuition instead of just helping students be able to answer the questions on the exam. Having had learning difficulties at school I understand how some students need to be approached differently. I am genuinely fascinated by maths and science and my enthusiasm for my subjects helps me show students how interesting maths and science is, and how it applies to the world around us much more than they are taught in schools.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
Help them to enjoy the subject Make sure they understand the subject and have intuition instead of just being able to answer exam questions Help students understand how important these concepts are and why they are useful in the real world, which gets easily lost on the school curriculumSubjects Tutored 🎓
