What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
The satisfaction that you get when you have helped someone to understand a concept or theory that they previously did not! Tutoring is very rewarding and I believe you easily get a lot out of it when you put the effort in.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I have very strong communication skills and have constantly proved to be able to build a rapport with students of all ages - I am very approachable and reliable. I also am proud of the fact that I am thorough and diligent with my work which I think is a value that is passed on to the student.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
To get them engaged and interested in a subject or topic. Although it is good to just teach the student how to pass the exam, I believe that by truly engaging and motivating a student they will get the most reward and the best results from their work.Subjects Tutored 🎓

Nicholas is really developing his skills in this area, and can take ordinary quadratic formula questions with ease. And now has a headstart on the topic for the next term.
Further work on his skills of deduction for those tricky questions, including where the logic/solution cannot be found in the conventional way (applying the formula)
Most of the content came back to Nicholas quickly, and he is in a positive frame of mind to tackle the challenges of the next term

Too early to tell this year - further practice to reinforce the relevant formula and recall by heart
After a little bit of a refresher, Nick was able to get a good grasp on what went wrong with many of his answers. We will continue this next week.

To keep up with the pace of learning in next year's curriculum, Nicholas will need to truly reinforce his learning with practice until it becomes second nature
Nicholas is getting to grips with applying the formula quite quickly based on his prior knowledge of algebra. His intuition in this area is good.

I'm still awaiting the exam script, because he mentioned he still needs to scan it. Will need to revise this in depth.
