Enable the student to find their method of learning and their own logic patterns to be able to work out complex problems with simple methods My strengths as a tutor are the ability to identify with the child and through that, enable them to simplify their learning. My weakness would be that I do not move on from a concept until the student fully…
Using a wide range of techniques to explain concepts, such as with examples, diagrams, real life applications and sometimes even a simple step by step approach can make a huge difference towards solidifying a student's understanding of a subject. As content can be accessed by textbooks and videos, it is crucial for a tutor to go a step further and…
From the perspective of a past student who's worked with tutors. I've found the best environment to learn is one that feels inviting and open to questions.

Allowing students to become independent thinkers and restorning their self confidence is one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student.

One of the most important things a tutor can do is be patient and supportive. Different people learn different things in different ways, and at different rates. A tutor must cater for that, and not skip over important things that students have not yet understood. A tutor must use the method of explaining/teaching that students will understand. I…
The most important thing a tutor can do for a student is be patient. Often school teachers rush content, repeating the same explanation for each student as they teach. I can understand that this may be necessary for a large class but it becomes difficult for students that need more time to understand everything or process information differently.…
Be relatable and have patience with each student as everyone learns in their own way and pace. No one person will learn the same as another. As a trainer/tutor I cater to the needs of the individual.

I am patient and willing to take the time to work…
Study the student and know his or her pros and cons. I would say master the pros whilst teaching the pros. Divide the activities and show the student that learning isn't a burden its much of a relief at the end of the day because goals can be reached easier once you know better. I have done public speaking for as long as I can remember, so theres…

It is important for a tutor to assist the student with the problems they have so that they can learn how to do them and can then complete the problems without the tutors assistance. only then, when the student is confident enough to work independently of the tutor, has the tutor succeeded with properly assisting the student My strengths are in my…

Since this is a 1-on-1 tutorial, the tutor must give full attention to the student. Also to find ways to make sessions enjoyable but not to the point of sacrificing the time for teaching. And again to be patient so that the student can fully understand the topics being discussed. My best quality as a tutor would be my patience. I know a lot of…
Just supporting them through questions and providing hints allowing them to figure out the problem by themselves.

Hello Erica,
Thanks for touching base. Isabella is great. She's gelled really nicely with Meg, who is already saying that for the first time she understands why things are done a certain way, rather than just being told to do it.
I'll let you know if any issues arise but at this point I can't see any at this stage.
Cheers
