Commitment / Other Details
I'm currently pursuing a degree in Psychology and Sociology at The University of Buffalo in SIM. My school timetable changes every 4 months, but I will try to keep tuition days as regular as possible.
Rapport Building
I usually tap on the interest of the students when I teach them. I communicate clearly with parents, eg asking about their expectations for their child and at the same time I explain my teaching style and adjust accordingly. Each child learns differently therefore I teach each child with different styles.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
As a Good Tutor
As an educator I believe in, addition to teaching, making learning fun and memorable for my students. I want to ensure that learning is not a boring and a forced thing to do as learning is a life long journey. Therefore if students have a bad impression of learning at a young age, they will have a difficult time in the future.
