What do I enjoy most about tutoring? ๐
The satisfaction I get from showing my students new information and knowledge. Also while teaching them I sometimes can learn new and creative methods to solve math problems as well, so it's like I am also learning while teaching. Overall, I just enjoy the idea of giving knowledge to people and afterwards knowing about their results (test scores, exam points etc..)My Strengths as Tutor ๐ช
I'm very approachable and friendly. Additionally, most people find me easy to talk to and a good listener as well so I hope I can overcome shyness from introvert students. My base knowledge in Math and English is at a good level due to my choice of degree at University, so I hope I can reinforce them and able to teach back the knowledge to my students perfectly.Most important things I can do for a student ๐
In my opinion a tutor's most important trait is being able to communicate with the student and solve their problems that they may be too shy/afraid to ask the teacher. In a smaller classroom set up, it's important that the tutor get more 1 on 1 time with each student and thus able to know them better.Subjects Tutored ๐
