Experience

My aim as a Substitute teacher and tutor is to create in my students a deep understanding and confidence in answering exam questions and being able to tackle new and unfamiliar problems. I choose this career, because since was 8 years old I have been interested in become a teacher/tutor. Teaching is my passion and I am a concept learner by nature, and I teach to the concept. I’ve been teaching students from preschool to higher secondary for over two years in a variety of disciplines and classrooms.My experience has been that one-to-one personal tuition has a unique value to students because of the ability to resolve the students’ personal barriers to learning in a way that lays the foundations for a deep and lasting understanding of the subject. I have a unique combination of strong academic skills and the ability to create a positive difference on the educational goals of the students. I have the ability to see the unique strengths in each student and I usually focus on exam-style or past paper questions in order to check, practice and perfect the student’s understanding and technique. My teaching style varies depending on the student’s needs and learning style. However my teaching philosophy is based on encouraging students to think for themselves, using real-world examples wherever possible. I start from topics the students are comfortable with and move gradually towards more complex areas as their confidence builds. I use questions and examples to check understanding continually. I don’t lecture to students or ask them to memorize things. I believe in the limitless potential of all students. Even if there arise a situation, when even God can't help you, all the hard work that you have put in will surely pay it's price. So work hard and think smart.
