What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
With tutoring, I most enjoy seeing the progress of students. With students I have helped in the past, knowing they are still using the methods, memorisation techniques, or general ways of breaking content down in their studies is extremely fulfilling. I also just genuinely enjoy teaching. My Dad is a school teacher so I understand that sometimes a 1 on 1 tutoring session is more effective than a classroom.
My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I believe my strengths as a tutor are my patience and my understanding. I have been in the position of content not coming through to me from the teaching methods I was receiving and it can feel frustrating. I understand that it is the tutor's role to personalise each student's experience based on their unique way of understanding. I believe I am not satisfied until I'm convinced the student fully understands the content. There's nothing worse than being embarrassed or unable to explain that the teaching methods you are receiving still aren't connecting with you.
Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I believe a tutor should be approachable and maintain a focused but casual study environment. The worst thing a tutor can be is uptight, stressed, or unsure. First, this creates an environment that the student may not feel comfortable asking questions or communicate their honest level understanding. Second, a tutor's lack of confidence in their own work can relay onto the student. This is why I believe a tutor should be confident and calm.

As long as Jackson continues revision and study in his own time leading up to the test, focusing on what he knows he isn't confident in, he will do greatly.
Jackson is very confident with the difference between a census and sample, and can confidently draw a stem and leaf plot.

Generally, across the whole topic, Jackson needs the most work with calculating the mean and median within a frequency table, extracting data from a stem and leaf plot, and identifying the shapes of data distributions. This will become the focus of our last session together before the test. I strongly believe if Jackson puts in the work individually, and follows the study plan, he will do well on his test.
Jackson can easily identify the mode and range of the data.

Needs improvement finding the median and mean of the data, and distinguishing relevant numbers within a frequency table, and using formulas to find the mean and median.

Jackson went well with the content generally. Knew how to extract fractions from graphs, comparing a selected sample to the whole, and converting that fraction into a percentage.
Needs improvement differentiating values that stay in the question, and values used for equations. For example, 'how many students eat twice a day,' the number 2 would not be used in the equation.
