I think the most important thing would be to show students that education is fun, it should never be boring. A good teacher should be able to explain and teach in a fun and intuitive way. My key strengths would be my technical knowledge and being able to understand not each student is alike, not each student learns the same way. Therefore…
Understanding the students learning methods and delivering lessons that accommodate the student's and parents' needs is the most important thing a tutor can do for a student. I believe that is most important for the student to feel comfortable and confident with the content as well as the tutor. Hence, the basic foundation of trust and support…
I believe that I should not be teaching facts and topics as an end and assume that students will understand the deeper concepts and principles. Deeper understanding of content- If students do not understand the deeper concepts and principles behind the facts, the students’ knowledge will be superficial and will not be able to transfer their…
A tutor can do many things for their students. They should be able to motivate, support, inspire and teach from the heart. In other words, they should be role models to their students; someone students look upto that inspires them to achieve their full potential. I strongly believe that great tutors teach because they are passionate about what…
The most essential thing a tutor should do for their students is to encourage them to improve every day by ensuring that they understand the concepts clearly. While doing so, it is also important that the students enjoy their learning and do not become demotivated. I was not particularly the most brilliant student in my junior years however I made…
The most important thing for a tutor to do is to actively listen their students' concerns and questions and be honest with feedback or comments on their progress. Whilst feedback can sometimes be discouraging, it is always important to provide constructive feedback to students regularly to make them aware of areas that can be improved. Along with…
- assistance and support in understanding tricky topics + use plenty of relevant examples and creative methods to aid in the understanding process
- be interactive, ask questions to the class/student, encourage the student to take charge (sometimes)
- provide a comfortable space, where the student trusts the tutor and feels comfortable to ask…
Recognize the needs of my student and help them improve their study skills, help them when they ask for it, and develop their confidence. Also, let them know that it's okay to make mistakes. Although I get along well with kids, I also have a strong vocal presence, so I make sure they do their tasks neatly. As a patient person, I will give a pupil…
Being able to provide consistent support and help for my students is an important quality that I value very much. It allows us to build a bond, where my students feel as though they can rely on me for advice and assistance any time. As a tutor I am able to cater to the different styles of learning for each student and maintain a positive…
I think, its a tutor's responsibility in helping the student to understand their inner potential by suggesting ways to broaden their skill sets, pushing their boundary to convey that there is much to learn in life. Other than being a punctual and effective educator, I am flexible by allowing my students to learn in their own phase. It makes them…
I think that the most important thing a tutor can do for their student is to understand their lifestyle and work according to that so that there is minimal pressure and more learning for them. In order to do that, it’s better to get to know the child and adjust according to what they prefer and how they want to be treated and/or taught. I think…
I believe the most important thing a tutor can do is show that the student can be independent in their thinking and be capable of approaching a question from different angles. I am very against rote learning mathematics as it is not useful to real life and will set them up for failure in university. Therefore my approach involves understanding the…
In my view , the best thing a tutor can do for a student is to motivate them and help them in gaining an inbuilt confidence in those subjects in which he is weak. In my perception, at first students should start to love their subject , then automatically they start to score well in that. I think I can deal with students according to their…
As a former student myself, I believe support is the biggest factor, and strength for students. Many students rely on the support, and help of their tutors, when faced with obstacles such as assignments, or upcoming exams. I believe, the most important thing, is for a tutor to be open, and understanding to the students' questions and school…
Challenge · Reassure · Consolidate
A tutor's most integral role is to harness the power of these 3 pillars of tutoring to establish a nurturing learning environment where students are encouraged to think innovatively and step out of their comfort zone. Tutor's must also engage with students to ensure their learning needs are being met and…
I think the most important a tutor can do for a student is to get to know and read them perfectly. This allows a tutor to know exactly what a student needs to excel, help them set realistic goals and knowing not only when to help but also when not to help, rather letting the student try and solve a complex question themselves without interference.…
Have the student recognise that there is more to the subject than just what they see at school. To understand their unique ways of learning and use that to help them flourish. My main strength has always been communication and time management.
In my time as a tutor I have also found patience as a strength. My ability to build strong rapport…
Focus and to develop student interest is the main thing to teach students. Making time table for every activity that student cannot be bored but feel charm to do work activities. What I realized was that the most important thing for me was for my students to know that they are valued. That I am glad that they are there every single day and that…
In my opinion the most important thing a tutor can do for a student is understanding the students abilities and goals, and using this to not only teach the student the required content but devise a pathway and teaching style to help the student learn most efficiently and perform at their highest level in examinations. My strength resides in my…

So far Katie has been prompt, personable and prepared.
As you say it is very early days -we are only just getting to the point where we are clear on where she is at and where she needs to be.
Yes we are happy with Kavindu.
Emily seems more confident with one on one home tutoring than class tutoring.
thanks
He's here now, drinking miso and walking Em through Pythagoras (poor sole).
It's all good. She appreciates this time and enjoys his learning insights so that's a winner.
