What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I find tutoring highly rewarding, through both driving development and forming positive and professional connections with students.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I have a sociable and friendly personality and over 2 years of experience teaching and working with students of all ages as a tennis coach. I also have a strong understanding of high school-level maths, receiving an ACT score of 183 (HSC band 6 equivalent) in my maths studies. This has been further developed in my engineering degree, receiving distinctions in maths courses.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I believe that a student should be exposed to basic questions surrounding underlying theory until they become routine, followed by exposure to more challenging, abstract applications.Subjects Tutored 🎓
