What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I have always had a passion for teaching whether in school, university and working as a tutor. As a student myself, I understand the stress that can come with learning and trying to understand complex concepts and ideas and it is always comforting to have someone to guide you and I want to be that supportive presence for my students. Tutoring is also a creative outlet for me - having to explain complex topics to students often reqiures me to think outside the box and use different methods and tailor my approach to each students needs.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
As a tutor, I think one of my strongest qualities is having patience. It is important to be open-minded and create a open, supportive and judgement free environment for students to openly express themselves to build their confidence and strenghten their academic abilities. Adaptability is also another quality I believe I possess. I understand that every student learns differently and I take the time to understand each students learning methods and adjust my teaching style accordingly. I am a strong believer in the fact that tutoring does not comprise a striaght cut approach.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
The main responsibility of a tutor is to fill gaps in a students knowledge as opposed to picking on whats wrong. I believe that constructive feedback is the core of tutoring. However, it is also important to facilitate independent thinking in students. A combination of direct help and independent learning will give them the confidence to perform well academically regardless of the setting. Overall tutoring is not just about improving grades on paper ; It is to build confidence, understanding and faciliate a genuine love for learning and I enjoy being that presence for my students.Subjects Tutored 🎓
