What do I enjoy most about tutoring? π
Whenever I was helping my friends in class or outside of class, I liked being able to explain things to them, as it also helped me become better at explaining concepts and grow my own understanding. I also really loved seeing when it clicked for them and they understood what I was explaining.My Strengths as Tutor πͺ
I have been through tutoring since year 2, so I have a lot of understanding of what it's like being a student and what can be effective. Additionally, I am patient and have learnt a lot through my school years, about the different ways people can learn. I have also made a lot of mistakes in my learning. Thus, one of my strengths would be that I am able to provide a lot of helpful insight into learning and learning from mistakes from the perspective of a student. Also, another strengths is that I truly love maths and thus believe that I can make it more enjoyable for other students.Most important things I can do for a student π
In my opinion, the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is make them feel comfortable. This is done by establishing a welcoming and positive environment that helps them learn, and as a result allows the students to feel more confident.Tutoring students in π¦ π§
