What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I find it such a privilege to work with children and pass on my expertise. The job satisfaction when you see tangible progress is second to noneMy Strengths as Tutor 💪
My ability to tailor my teaching approach to children of all different ages and abilities so that sessions are as productive as possible for all of my studentsMost important things I can do for a student 🏅
A tutor is a child’s opportunity to learn and ask questions without the worry of their peers. I therefore think creating a comfortable environment where a child knows there are no stupid questions and they are allowed to say “I don’t understand that, can you go over it again please†is fundamental to the roleTutoring students in 👦 👧
