What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
Something I enjoy most about tutoring, and I believe the children do too, is being able to learn with someone they perhaps find more relatable and they're able to take on skills and tips that you used during your education, where they may not have that with their teacher.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I am well spoken and love working with kids. I am also extremely passionate about the material I'm teaching and love to help kids with techniques to battle some difficult questions they may encounter.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
Encourage the student to have fun with it! Learning shouldn't be boring, learning should bring curiosity to the student and help them find new ways of considering the problem. The tutors job, in that way, is crucial, because it can help the student feel less stress in their subjects and actually enjoy them, as well as feel much more confident within themselves.Subjects Tutored 🎓

About Dahan
Multilingual Humanities Student with Strong Communication Skills
Dahan is a university student studying History and Linguistics, giving her a strong foundation in reading, writing and analytical thinking that translates directly into English tutoring. She speaks four languages – English, French, Turkish and Norwegian – which helps her explain tricky concepts in clear, accessible ways and connect with students from diverse backgrounds. Her ongoing academic success in language-focused subjects means she can support students with essay structure, comprehension, grammar and vocabulary in a way that feels approachable and confidence-building.
Patient Communicator with Real-World People Skills
Through her customer-facing roles, this tutor has spent many hours explaining information clearly, listening carefully and staying calm under pressure – the same skills that help a nervous student feel at ease. She is used to breaking down complex or unfamiliar information into simple steps, checking for understanding and adjusting her approach on the spot. Parents can expect a tutor who is reliable, organised and able to build positive rapport quickly, especially with students who may be shy or unsure of themselves.
Culturally Aware Tutor Who Makes Learning Relatable
Having lived and worked across different communities and languages, Dahan brings a broad, culturally aware perspective to her sessions. She often draws on real-world examples, everyday language and cross-cultural comparisons to make reading tasks and language exercises more engaging for students. Her background in French and linguistics allows her to design tailored vocabulary and grammar activities, while her interest in history helps her bring context and stories into lessons, making learning feel more like a conversation than a classroom lecture.

He has great ideas for how to answer questions and is enthusiastic during the lesson. Additionally, he is making lots of progress with holding the pen properly and fixing his handwriting, which can be quite difficult
He needs to continue working on answering sentences in full (making sure to not start sentences with conjunctions) and his spelling. His understanding of punctuation should also be solidified so that he can use it more comprehensively in his writing.

The text I had picked out to read was quite a lot more complicated than I had anticipated but she did really well with reading it regardless. She's making big improvements with subtraction and doesn't seem to struggle when the numbers are on top of eachother.
She gets a bit confused with subtractions and 'borrowing' when the numbers are side by side, but with some visual aid she seemed to grasp it a bit better. In her own time, working to memorise parts of the multiplication table would also be very beneficial before continuing to work with bigger multiplication.
Her writing is quite good and well put together. Additionally, the paragraph I assigned her to-do was written professionally and well

She needs to work on clarifying certain terms in her essay, solidifying content, writing important topic - specific vocabulary (guerrilla warfare, colonialism, etc) and understanding the way in which this links to the question

At the beginning of the lesson, she seemed to struggle a lot with understanding the purpose and function of a future value table and how to use it. After clear explanation however and practice, she managed to get the answer consistently and understood the content
Next lesson, I want to work on calculus as well as understanding the function of present value tables and how to use them.
