What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
The best part about tutoring is when the students reach the 'aha' moment, when the concept finally clicks. Seeing them gradually level up their mindset and knowledge while knowing I played a part in that progress is incredibly rewarding.
My Strengths as Tutor 💪
Apart from my experience and my ability to communicate clearly, my strength has always been that I have used tutoring/ teaching techniques in my own life. Whenever I've prepared for exams, I've used the Feynman technique, and it has helped both me and the person I explained the concept to.
Additionally, whenever I come across foreign concepts in my study/work, I often break them into smaller ideas or analogies, preferably in my area of interest. That makes it easier to understand the concept, and also keeps things familiar.
Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
The most vital thing that can be done is helping a student feel capable and confident. Grades and content matter, but confidence is what will help them with almost everything in their life as a human being. My goal is to create an environment where the student feels safe to make a mistake, and doesn't feel pressured to get the concept within the first try. When a student starts trusting their own thinking instead of relying on mine, that's when I know I've done my job well.
