What do I enjoy most about tutoring? π
I enjoy literature and language, and so any chance to have a discourse on those topics is welcome. I'm always looking to learn and I've found that teaching someone (by act of verbally having to force the knowledge in your head into concise speech that anyone can understand) can be very powerful in cementing what you've previously learnt, or organizing your more abstract ideas. It is this I enjoy most about tutoring - the opportunity to learn along with the students.
My Strengths as Tutor πͺ
I think I'm good at transposing my passion for literature onto other people. Reading, analysing and writing should never be boring. Many people would have you think that English is a boring and useless subject and I take pride in trying to prove this wrong.
Most important things I can do for a student π
Patience is first and foremost when you're with a student. It is vastly important that you should respect the pace at which the student learns and works at, to never pressure or rush the student, to challenge them without making them feel small or inadequate. We all learn in different ways and at different speeds - none of which are better or worse than the rest. You need to spend time with the student to find out what they respond best to before you can make any real, significant progress and improvement.
