What do I enjoy most about tutoring? 😁
I really like teaching and inspiring the students, and showing them new and fun ways to learn and understand the content that they learn at school. I also think it is really rewarding to teach students and to help them with any concept they need help with.My Strengths as Tutor 💪
I have effective communication skills, as I am an articulate communicator who has an appreciation for the different communication styles required when working with students. I can modify certain ways of teaching to help the students understand the concept in a different way. My volunteer participation as a Youth Leader, and doing private tutoring for high school students, has increased my interest in teaching and inspiring children and students. I am hardworking, creative, and an active listener, so I ensure that the content that is being taught to the students is easy to understand.Most important things I can do for a student 🏅
I think that one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student is to make learning a fun and enjoyable experience. It's important to make sure the students are not just memorising information without understanding the concepts. As a tutor, I think that it's also important to have different teaching styles to teach the students and answer their questions, so that they understand the concepts, and they are inspired to learn more about what they are learning at school.Subjects Tutored 🎓
