What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
The thing I enjoy most about tutoring is being able to convey real understanding rather than rely on rote learning.
My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I have a BSc in mathematics and statistics from UWA which has given me a lot of experience with mathematics. I have also worked with children since 2018 in a swim school. Between these experiences I have been exposed to a wide range of teachers, lecturers and instructors, each with their own style. I believe that one of my strengths is having the knowledge and experience to explain things in different ways in order to find an explanation that works for an individual student.
Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is to find out what works well for them. Each student might understand something slightly differently. Understanding this and working with each student as an individual can help work out each individual students' way of understanding things. With this information, the students' tutoring experience can be tailored in order to help the student achieve the best possible results.

Able to effectively construct a table of points and transfer the information to a graph. Able to describe the effect of changing the c coefficient (eqn form: y = ax^2 + bx + c).
Some terminology (roots, mixing up x vs y intercepts). Remembering the effect of changing the a coefficient (in y = ax^2 + bx + c form). Switching between forms and recognising the information directly obtainable from each.

Content that is less interesting to student can be rushed, leading to making simple errors in arithmetic and understanding/definitions, e.g. differentiating between a ? A and a ? A|B’.
Reasonable retention of set notation, able to differentiate and describe the differences between union and intersection of sets, able to use formulas effectively.
