For most students, biology doesn't seem that hard. The content isn't that intimidating and if you put in the time, more often than not results will follow.
I believe it is most important to build a student's confidence. Once they believe they can achieve things on their own, and develop an interest in the subject, higher grades will follow. My strength is patience and I believe my weakness would be understanding school curriculums, however I am a fast learner and know I can adapt…
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is listen to them - tutoring is never one size fits all. Each approach should be more individual, so that students can not only learn, but build confidence in their abilities.

3) Build a rapport with the student whilst maintaining the professional boundary.
4) Bring an enthusiastic and positive attitude even when its a difficult session.

I believe that helping the student truely understand the unit or content they are struggling with is important. However, I also believe that self achievement is important. Not all students are going to get A's, but if I can help them achieve their personal goals, then I consider it a job well done.

Sometimes children do not study subjects because the method in which they receive it is not interesting enough. My goal as a tutor is to make it interesting for the student and so that he develops a liking for the subject. This in due course can help a student identify his true potential.

As a tutor I believe, getting concepts clear is very important. Likewise, understanding the areas of doubts that a student faces and clearing them patiently, is very important in making the student excel in their results. I make sure to revise, recap the concepts through small tests to make sure the teachings are understood, as it is the…
I believe one of the most important thing would be to build a student's confidence, teaching them to feel positive about themselves. Perhaps the student feels incapable of solving problems,despite possessing the ability. Thus, it is a tutor's duty to show students that they are capable and believe in themselves.
It is also important that the…

I believe that a tutor should be encouraging, and help each student excel in their own unique way, as not every student has the same way of learning. I am able to explain concepts well, and am a patient and warm person. I encourage mistakes as without them, there would be no opportunity to learn. I am also a last year Neuroscience student in UWA,…

I am very happy with my son's tutor so far. We have only had 2 sessions & already my son is doing his homework after school everyday, without being asked. He also is impressing his tutor with his knowledge. They both relate with each other & I can see good things for my son's future.
I think Molly is really getting a lot out of the sessions and a lot of support. I think that she is also a good role model for Molly.
Michelle is awesome and has taught me so much in a short amount of time. She never doubts my level of ability and is always encouraging me to go above and beyond. Her knowledge of specific maths topics is just out of this world. You guys have one awesome lady on your hands!
