One of the most important things a tutor can do is be patient and supportive. Different people learn different things in different ways, and at different rates. A tutor must cater for that, and not skip over important things that students have not yet understood. A tutor must use the method of explaining/teaching that students will understand. I…
I believe that a tutor needs to communicate with the student about their needs. I think that if the student and the tutor communicate well and both parties understand each other, then it will help the student tremendously. They will be willing to ask questions and participate during the lesson. I am an approachable person. I feel like my passion…
Allowing students to become independent thinkers and restorning their self confidence is one of the most important things a tutor can do for a student. This means while you guide them in filling gaps in knowledge and breaking down difficult concepts, the tutor is able to build these fundamental skills in the student. In instilling these skills, I…
From the perspective of a past student who's worked with tutors. I've found the best environment to learn is one that feels inviting and open to questions. I hope I can build such an environment where students do not feel worried about asking questions or use me as a resource to aid their learning. Furthermore, I think it's paramount that a tutor…
Changing a student's attitude to enjoy the subject and want to learn more about the subject is definitely the most important thing a great tutor can do. A good attitude is key to succeeding in anything, not just school subjects. Strengths:

The most important things a tutor can do for a student is to make sure that the student feels comfortable and safe while being taught. This is so that they have an easier time learning the information rather than being constantly stressed out. I also think, as a tutor we should put in the effort to analyse in which type of learning the student…
Thanks for your email. Our decision to discontinue the tutoring was not due to any dissatisfaction - quite the opposite. My daughter only had a few sessions with her tutor, and in that time gained a huge amount of confidence in her abilities. The tutor was able to reassure her that she wasn't as bad at maths as she believed. This new-found confidence enabled my daughter to discuss openly with her teacher the difficulties she was having, and get some extra help at school. Since then, she has performed markedly better in her assignments and tests.
Natasha is an excellent tutor and I would highly recommend your company to anyone experiencing difficulty with Maths.
Thanks for the follow up and for all your help.
Douglas was great & Liam responded well with him - But the school have always had in house tutoring that Liam was uncomfortable attending - But with Douglas's input he now feels confident to go and take that path. As I pay School fees this makes more sense than another outlay on top. He is making great progress and all is well.
Just wanted to let you know that Mark seems like a good match for Nik. He really likes him and had a really successful first session.
Thanks for your support and assistance in finding him!
