Commitment / Other Details
I am particular about punctuality and students' dedication to score high. I am available weekdays during evenings (can discuss morning availability too), and weekend afternoon hours.
Rapport Building
I find it easy to interact with students and try to establish interest and liking for subjects instead of pressurizing students to score. An interested student will not 'cram' but understand concepts and find it easier to attempt tests, and remember lessons on a long-term basis. I believe that a friendly approach to studying, with directed focus will go a long way.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
I like to be ahead of the curriculum, based on the student's capabilities and number of hours dedicated per week. this way the concepts are reinforced in the student's mind when in class, and will leave me with ample time to conduct revisions and mock exams before the finals.
As a Good Tutor
A good tutor must understand that no two students are the same. This will help establish a healthy tutor-student relationship and create positive vibes in the student for the subject which will reflect directly in their grades. A solid agenda and time table that follows the curriculum, interspersed with regular tests and feedback from students will make every lesson meaningful and fruitful.
