Catherine - Bristol tutor






Information About Catherine:


Personal Description:

Hi!
My name is Catherine and I have come over to Bristol from Canada to finish my degree in International Business. I am 23, reliable, fun, and very enthusiastic! Though I am not seeking a career in teaching, I very much enjoy working with children and young adults to perfect their academic and other various skills. Growing up, I often helped my mother in her classes as she taught English, French, and fitness and always loved seeing the looks on kids' faces when they finally "got it". : )



Teaching Experience:

I have tutored privately on and off for the last 5 years, mostly to elementary school-aged children. Though less related, I have also been a swim instructor for 6 years and as such understand anxiety and fear that students are often faced with when learning. But eventually, it just becomes second nature!



Tutoring Approach:

In working with children and young adults, I do my best to gain an understanding as to the type of approach that will best suit the individual. Everyone learns differently, at different speeds, and is motivated by different goals. The key is to identify those elements and utilize them as efficiently as possible. Whether a student needs help preparing for a test and feels anxious, or can't seem to fully grasp a topic without spending a bit more time at home working through it, there are always methods through the madness. I am patient and understand the learning process, and am willing to put forth a great deal of effort to make the student comfortable and relaxed (and smiling!) as this is the only way to improve!
