Abigail W.
Literacy Tutor
Highly proficient in teaching this subject
My sessions are specifically planned with the student in mind and will target any weaknesses in order to build confidence in these areas and widen knowledge of the subject. I will do my best to keep the sessions lighthearted and friendly (even when discussing your least favourite topics) so as to build a joint enthusiasm for the subject.
About
My approach to tutoring is a student-led method that responds to each student's needs as I ensure that my students communicate openly with me as it is an essential aspect of tutoring which builds the students confidence when learning. I am conversant with the techniques and applications of the Montessori Curriculum.
I'm enthusiastic, passionate and committed to the moral and educational well-being of children in my care. I believe to learn best students must have a desire to learn, hence I enjoy making lessons fun and getting students confident and excited about studying.
I adopt a very patient, process-based approach to tutoring. I create an enjoyable and positive environment which facilitates learning and results. My end - goal is to instill my students with skills that will not only assist them in a particular subject, but with their entire - learning process.
I am a strong believer that through hard - work, focus and the right attitude, a lot can be achieved.

Jun 2018Abigail is very knowledgeable on the topics she taught and she is very patient in explaining it to my daughter. She is direct on her feedback but also very polite and made it easy for my daughter to take in the feedback. We look forward to working with her again.

May 2018I'm commenting for my daughter. She had a great first session with Abigail. I met her briefly at the beginning and was instantly impressed and amazed with her talents. She's intelligent and very patient. Looking forward to more lessons.
