What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
Since I've previously been employed in a teaching role (swim instructor), I found it really enlightening to be able to teach younger children a new skill, and how to build on that foundation.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I think I'm quite patient and able to work with students as opposed to instructing them, the main focus being on understanding their individual needs and building confidence.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
Being available, reliable, and understanding. I believe that having the ability to cater to an individual is also extremely important; realising that not everyone has the same capacity to learn.Subjects Tutored 🎓
