Sylvia N.
Numeracy Tutor
Experienced Teacher
It is very important for children to begin to develop basic numeracy skills from an early age. Basic numeracy skills consist of comprehending fundamental arithmetic like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division. For example, if one can understand simple mathematical equations such as, 2 + 2 = 4, then one would be considered possessing at least basic numeric knowledge. As a teacher, it is my duty to help these students develop this ability.
About
My name is Sylvia. My approach to tutoring starts with the individual needs of the student as my teaching style is flexible and thorough. I believe every student is different and they all require a nuanced approach to enable them to make the most progress possible.
The essential aspect of my tutoring is to build and maintain confidence in every area of learning , as I believe that there is nothing that someone cannot do at any level if they believe they can.
I have embraced 'learning' as a process to be developed, understood and enjoyed and I ensure that my tuition is designed not just to bolster my tutees' techniques and understanding, but also to increase their confidence, interest, and ability to enjoy the subject. Observing my tutees' success and their growth in confidence makes me very happy.
