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.

In the paper we identified mistakes ranging from little mistakes to not having understood content. In this case, luckily, the bits of content that she did not understand were fairly limited but she would benefit off writing them down and making sure to solidify her theory before properly attempting HSC style questions (e.g log rules)

She can get a bit confused with the more complex written questions which needs more work and targeted practice. Going slowly, breaking down the question, and answering all required parts of the question should be done slowly and accurately

In this lesson, I prompted her to create linear equations even when the question was not specifically asking for it so that she could see the relationship of different concepts she was working on and she did very well in creating the linear equations and seeing the connection of different topics which is good to see.
She needs to continue working on her ability to convert different units and her work on rates; though she is improving a lot
