A tutor needs to be able to teach students, not only to understand concepts but how to apply them to a range of practical questions. Additionally, a tutor should be able to assist students personally, not just academically by understanding how they may feel when experiencing a new and difficult concept to ensure their confidence is not affected.Tutoring students in 👦 👧
