What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁

I have learned so much from tutoring other students and it's such a wonderful feeling knowing that you've helped someone and that they've earned a better grade as a result. As a student, it can be frustrating when you don't understand something and it can be even more difficult to ask for help in the first place. What amazes me about every student that I've ever tutored is how brilliant every student truly is. Just because some of us have certain strengths and weaknesses doesn't mean that someone else has that same strength or weakness.

My Strengths as Tutor 💪

I have good listening skills, and I believe to understand the emotions and problems the children face. Benefiting from this ability, I was able to connect with the children other people could not connect with, creativity and enthusiasm for teaching, ability to explain difficult things in a simple way.

Most important things I can do for a student 🏅

Communication and collaboration with all stakeholders are key factors to student success. When tutors focus on goal setting, creating benchmarks and planning backwards, this sets students up for academic progress. Successful tutors co-create individualized learning plans with their students, in collaboration with parents and teachers, to leverage insight from key adults in students' lives and map a better plan for success and accountability. When tutors communicated with teachers, we found that students were 83 percent more likely to participate in class, and 72 percent more likely to engage.
