What do I enjoy most about tutoring? π
When you work one-on-one with a student β usually ones who lack confidence in their ability to succeed in that subject - and working at their pace to become successful in that subject and having the confidence to have a go at any problem given to them.My Strengths as Tutor πͺ
A belief that my students can succeed, use whatever methods have been taught to them by their teacher so that I am seen as working with their regular teacher and work with them at their pace encouraging them in their workMost important things I can do for a student π
Work one-on-one with a student at their pace to become successful in that subject and having the confidence to have a go at any problem given to them which ideally they can transfer to any subject or situation and be successful in all areas of their lives.Subjects Tutored π

Went over the principle of confidence intervals, the z values for common confidence levels and finished up with some problems, including central limit theorem problem. Jennifer was able to reproduce the steps to solving these problems
Jennifer is doing well, just needs to build her confidence up

Got through most types of problems in this area, including position, velocity and acceleration applications as well as unknown coefficients from inflection points. Jennifer did well with all the problems.
Completing everything well, just a bit rusty with product rule and factorising - so we will do some of those next week

Went over the standard normal curve and how to find probabilities for both 1 tailed and two tailed scenarios. Jennifer is going well, and starting to get the importance of a sketch of each scenario
Going well, she is starting to open up and express where she is having trouble, which is great

Went over the reverse problems, where probability is given and the data point to define the region has to be found. Then did some harder find the mean given probability and sd and comparing two normal distributions. Jennifer is quite skilful with her calculator, still working on the importance of a rough diagram to inform whether left, right or centre answers need setting up. Started on sampling theory and central limit theorem and we made a good start on this section
Going well, just needs to get her confidence up
