I think a tutor can teach a student how to learn a topic after it is explained by the tutor. Because at the end, it is the student who needs to learn by themselves after something is being taught to them. A tutor should make sure that anyone can learn those topics on their own if they are introduced by the tutor. My first strength as a tutor is my…

I believe the most powerful way a tutor can aid a student is by giving them confidence. More than often, students can show more vulnerability in a one-on-one session than in a classroom surrounded by their peers, and so the best thing I can do is use these private sessions to impart confidence in the students by making them see ways they can…
A tutor should always be able to provide right solution and proper guidance among the students. Teachers know better but as a tutor you need to learn and provide them with different ways to solve or help them I am good in math's and the most important is having fun while learning makes the student learn better and perform well. As of me , I might…
I believe support and encouragement are the most important elements that me as a tutor can help my students. Some students do not like to be pushed, and they need time for themselves as well, so supporting and encouraging them will direct them towards success. Some other students may experience difficulties in study (do not get a good result), so…
I believe it is important to understand the student's weaknesses and strengths before starting to teach them. I have come across a common problem with students, which is that they often jump straight into trying to solve a problem without fully understanding the theory/basics first. Hence, I try to first help them understand the basics then go…

Be patient, sometime students are having a hard time to understand some new confusing concepts in math or physics. It is important to explain the concept to students in a different way. During such a time, finding a new way to explain things in an easier way such students can learn is very important or students might give up on this point. In the…
I consider the most important things a tutor can do for a student are to make learning engaging and make student love the subject. Math formulas can sometimes seem boring, it's crucial for a tutor to interpret math in an interesting way. By doing so, students are more likely to develop a passion for math and experience the rewarding feeling that…
Other than imparting the lessons in school, I think being able to empathize with the students is key in effective teaching. As a matter of strategy, what I will do is to meet them where they are academically, then prepare a plan and implement it to be able to meet our goal(s). I have the ability to relate with young kids well. Raising three…
Know your stuff. Always. As simple as it might sound, really bringing your students a reliable foundation of knowledge on the subject is always crucial. It doesn't mean that you ALWAYS have to know your stuff though, we are human, and human can sometimes afford not to know it all. This is when I would go on, do my research, and make sure the next…
I think to be able to personalise teaching plans and tailor tutoring sessions to the specific learning needs & strategies of each individual student is crucial to achieve the best learning outcome and get the most out of tutoring from the perspective of the student. Aside from that, a tutor should have good listening skills, creativity, patience…

A tutor should display patience, kindness, and develop a relationship with the student; as well as personalised learning.

I think that being able to build a rapport with the student is one of the fundamental skills to be a good tutor. This lays the foundation for the student being comfortable in asking questions to the tutor, as well as the tutor finding a teaching style that is most suited to the student. I am confident in my ability to explain subject matter to the…

Provide a structured and highly efficient way of teaching that simultaneously encourages independent problem-solving and allows the student to understand the concepts in a comprehensive way.

I think one of the most important things is for the tutor to be understanding and listen to the student's problems to be able to grasp what they are struggling with and aid them effectively. It is also useful for the tutor to build a good relationship with the student to help increase their strengths in learning and incorporate their interests I…
Yes she certainly got a lot out of it. Ben is s terrific, gentle teacher who was just the right person for her.
I'd like to let you know how happy we are with Lauren. She has helped Zac to not only understand math concepts but has helped him gain confidence in his own ability. He had gone from C grades to A- and A in recent exams.
Thank you so much for your assistance over the past months. Alex has progressed quite well and is getting more enjoyment out the subject given that he now has a better grasp of it.
