I focus on building fundamental learning blocks to help students better understand core concepts, prioritising comprehension over rote memorization.

As a math tutor, I've developed the ability to quickly identify problem areas and explain concepts in a clear and easy-to-understand manner. I achieve this by utilising a continuous assessment approach, such as regular quizzes and feedback sessions, and fostering effective communication through open dialogue to gain a deeper insight into their needs.

I value thoroughly understanding concepts before putting them into practice, a principle that has been extremely beneficial to me over time, as it ensures a solid foundation for problem-solving and critical thinking skills. Drawing inspiration from Albert Einstein's words, 'If you can't explain it simply, you don't understand it well enough,' guides my teaching philosophy by emphasising the importance of simplicity and deep understanding in teaching.

I am easily approachable, friendly, and enthusiastic about assisting students with their academic endeavours. I warmly welcome students with a smile and provide encouragement during difficult learning situations.
