Mathematics Tutor
About
I am an enthusiastic individual who loves to impact knowledge.
My passion for tutoring grew from my personal experience, understanding the impact that excellent teachers can have in the life of a student. I believe students perform the very best when they feel as confident as possible. This inspires my teaching style, which is kind and thorough.
My objective is to build a trusting and respectful relationship between me and my students, as this is a conducive atmosphere for learning.
I believe that every student deserves a personalized education that is directly tailored to their own academic needs.
As a result of this, I create detailed diagnostic questions for each student so I can understand exactly what they know and what they don’t, so that I can create personalized plans to tackle misconceptions and help students succeed.
I have extensive experience of teaching students as a teacher and a private home tutor,which makes me well-equipped to deal with students from diverse backgrounds.
