What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I enjoy helping students understand concepts. It is a pleasure to see them also acquire improved marks in their class after helping them go through their struggles in learning the topics.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I am able to identify the weakness in the students to assist and help them overcome their difficulties in understanding mathematical concepts. I also have extensive experience as a mathematical biologist, hence I am able to assist in learning biology and other general science concepts. I can teach Maths, English or Science from primary to university level. I have research and postgraduate qualifications as well as teaching experience with leading schools and universities.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
It is important to help the student build their confidence in their learnings especially as an independent individual, so that they can face other struggles they encounter over and beyond the classroom and private tuition they receive.Testimonials 🏆
