What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
As someone who has always been self taught due to never recieving formal tution, I know how much of a difference the right explanation can make. By right explanation, I mean the explanation that 'clicks'. As a result, I enjoy tutoring as I find joy in helping students overcoming their frustration I felt during my highschool years in understanding specific mathematical concepts to instead discover that learning can be enjoyable and empowering.
My Strengths as Tutor 💪
Being self-taught has fostered patience and calmness, while possessing the ability to explain concepts from different angles. This is due to the ability of breaking complex ideas into simple steps. These aspects of myself would thus make me an excellent tutor.
Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I think one of the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is translate concepts in the students language. For example, some students are visual learners, while some are through written or algebraic proof. It's vital to teach in a way that matches the students thinking to ensure that the student no longer finds the subject intimidating but finds it achievable. As a result, the student builds up their own momentum and consistency by being more passionate for the subject, which can be difference between a poor mark and not only an excellent mark, but a newfound appreciation for it.

It is very important his laptop is fixed soon so that he can bring it to all his lessons and share all his learning resources with me so I can show him how to use it best.
He was able to understand the concepts within the harder questions.

He will get faster at doing these questions over time, however it is very important that he puts in more weekly effort. He should also bring his laptop and/or any resources (textbook or worksheets) he has been given every week.
He understood all the concepts behind them very well and was able to apply them quite quickly.

He needs to be more consistent with the amount of effort he puts into math and the homework I give him every week.
We effectively revised most of last weeks content and he was able to understand it all.

He needs to continuously practice every week so I don't waste the lessons time looking back on previous content before moving onto the next chapter.
