What do I enjoy most about tutoring? ๐
I enjoy helping students understand concepts and overcome challenges not just academically, but also seeing their confidence in their abilities grow within themselvesMy Strengths as Tutor ๐ช
I think my strengths are around finding creative ways to help students understand and learn concepts. I remember being in their position and at times would find it hard to get my head around a certain mathematical or scientific concept and having to find creative and abstract ways to help it click. Having that experience firsthand myself gives me the confidence that I can help students who might be in that same position. Another strength is my approachability and friendliness so that students feel comfortable asking for help.Most important things I can do for a student ๐
I think one of the most important things a tutor can do is to first understand the studentโs strengths and their learning style. Once you know this you can tailor the tutoring style towards these strengths so that they are getting the most out of their experience and they can understand the content in a way that clicks for them. Another important thing is to be calm and patient at all times. It can be hard to grasp and learn difficult concepts and the last thing students need is a negative and impatient tutor criticising them, young people need to feel supported and encouraged.Subjects Tutored ๐
