Tutoring Approach:

You may not get it yet, but you will!

My approach to tutoring is at three-tiered progress:

1. ESTABLISHING COMFORTABILITY AND TRUST:

It's important that the tutee and parent develop a sense of tutee in this one-on-one environment. On our first meeting, I will observe the tutee, listen to and provide feedback. This will allow me to identify areas of improvement. In doing so, I am better able to cater to the tutee's individual learning needs.

2. SETTING ACHIEVABLE GOALS

Collaborating with the tutee to set both realistic and achievable goals. Keeping a record of goals that have been achieved and ones that are still in progress. This demonstrates the tutee continued progress over time.

3. BUILDING CONFIDENCE

Offering different resources (exam-style questions, past paper exams, and extended writing task) provide continued and varied opportunities to practise and hone in a skill. With handwork and good with ethic any tutee is capable of mastery skills in science. Continual praise and encouragement further help in building and maintaining student's confidence in science. This will promote independent study and translate well on future assessments.
