Hello! I've been a tutor for 4 years now, helping dozens of students. If you are interested, I'd be happy to put you in contact with some of them so that you can chat about anything you're interested. I'll work with you in conversation, which'll brings us intellectually close to each other. This allows empathy to guide the learning process. One of the challenges I often face is answering an insightful question. If I'm not able to do it independently, I focus on relating to you through a simpler concept we are both familiar with. By breaking this concept down into smaller pieces and unveiling our own understanding of it, we enlighten ourselves. The thing I enjoy most about teaching is learning about you. to teach tough concepts and methodologies, I relate my lesson to how you reckon already known matters. This process familiarizes us with your subject's topics. This is the reason why we'll mostly avoid memorizing stuff. ----- My teaching methodology ----- It's all about the fundamentals: Bring me a concept you find tough to grasp and I'll break it down to you. By rewinding to the basics, I assess where you are. Then, it's simply a matter of building up from there, using the same methods you yourself utilize to know what you already understand. In other words: I'll ask you to explain a concept you already know to me. This way, I familiarize with how your mind reckons things. Then, I imitate this reckoning to guide you through new ideas. ----- A lesson tailored specifically for you ----- Exam prep: I offer exam preparation and methods to get those precious marks. It's not rare to find a student who, knowing and understanding the content of the syllabus, still is not able to get a satisfactory grade on those sneaky papers! I'll show you how to read the questions so that you know exactly what is being asked, and how to answer the way they want you to! I hope to see you soon in the classroom!
