Commitment / Other Details
Rapport Building
As a home tutor, I make it a point to customize my lessons to the individual student's needs. As such, my teaching style varies from student to student.
With more talented and highly motivated students, I would constantly challenge him/her by posing increasingly difficult/thought-provoking questions, while dropping only small hints along the way. With students having a lower aptitude for the subject, I would constantly demonstrate the link between new concepts and what they already know, so as to build their confidence.
I teach with the belief that given the right learning method and attitude, every single student has the ability to do well. I believe I have proven this with my track record and personal academic journey.
