What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
What I enjoy most about tutoring is the sense of satisfaction that comes from helping someone understand something they previously found difficult. I've always enjoyed helping my friends and peers with their studies, whether it's explaining a challenging concept or working through a problem together.
One of the most rewarding moments for me is seeing that moment when something finally clicks for a student. It's especially fulfilling when they go from feeling confused or frustrated to being able to solve a problem independently and confidently.
I also enjoy the interaction that comes with teaching. Everyone approaches problems differently, and I find it interesting to explore different ways of explaining the same concept. Being able to share my knowledge while learning how others think makes tutoring a genuinely enjoyable experience for me.
My Strengths as Tutor 💪
As a final-year Quantum Engineering student at UNSW, I have developed a strong foundation in mathematics and physics, along with analytical thinking and problem-solving skills through my engineering studies. I also have experience working as a Lab Demonstrator at UNSW, where I guided first-year engineering students through experiments, answered their questions, and helped them understand and apply theoretical concepts.
Through this experience, I've developed strong communication skills and learned how to break down complicated concepts into simpler, more manageable steps. I understand that students may have different levels of understanding, so I always try to be patient, approachable, and adapt my explanations to their needs.
I believe my academic background, teaching experience, and genuine willingness to help others would allow me to provide effective and supportive tutoring in mathematics and physics.
Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I believe the most important thing I can do for a student is to understand their individual learning needs and find an approach that works best for them. Every student has a different way of understanding and processing information. Some may learn better through visual explanations and diagrams, while others prefer written explanations, practical examples, or working through problems step by step.
Rather than using the same teaching method for everyone, I think it's important to first identify where a student is struggling and understand their existing knowledge before introducing new concepts.
I also believe patience and encouragement are essential. I want to create a comfortable learning environment where students feel confident asking questions, making mistakes, and learning at their own pace. My goal is not just to help them find the correct answers, but to develop a deeper understanding and confidence in their own abilities.

The student understands and can use the gradient intercept quite well. She is able to identify the gradient and y-intercept directly through an expression, and is able to draw the graph using gradient-intercept formula, except from the table-of-values method that she learnt to use before. The student is able to understand linear models and find correspond y-value based on the graph and x-value.
The HSC question involving concept of linear models makes the students feel challenged. This is because the question has several layers and steps to go through and the answer cannot be obtained through one step or one calculation. It's helpful to break the questions down and go through each step to find the answer. It's possible for the student to get the final answer correctly as she understands the concept that's being assessed quite well.

The student was able to understand the new concept quite well (what's intercept, how to find an intercept), which obviously means the student pay attention in class as well. The student made progress from previous topic, including variable identifying and graph drawing.
Sometimes the student forgot concept from previous chapters (what's absolute errors, the formulas related to measurement errors). It's important to keep them in mind as there will be test assessing the whole concept. Therefore, regularly revising chapters that've been down previously is important. The revision can be done through practicing exercises.

The student is good at using formulas to find the answers and explain the concept in the questions quite well once she got it and understand it. The student is able to identify the relationship of sides using addition or subtraction is she cannot get the relationship directly from the question.
The student sometimes finds it difficult to analysis the question and hence apply the formulas. More practice on this type of question will help a lot.

The student is able to identify the time difference (which area is ahead of the other) based on the description in question. The student went well on calculating local time based on the time difference and time in another location. The student can do latitude and longitude base on graph and was able to explain it quite well.
Sometimes if there's day changes in the time difference, the student needs some help to get the correct result. Doing questions like latitude and time difference, drawing graph to represent the relationship can be very helpful. The student needs more practice to derive the graph by herself.
