Teaching Style
- I am patient with the student and make sure that he/she knows and understand that I am here to help and to provide opportunities to him/her to use the available resources at his/her disposal. Example: how to use the internet efficiently. It is a powerful tool if you know how to use it.
- I let the student define and explain clearly what is it that he/she does not understand. This encourages the student to organize his/her thinking process and help me (the tutor) identify problem areas.
-I try to keep explanations simple, logical, clear and to the point.
-I encourage students to email or call me with any questions or concerns prior to sessions.
My Hobbies
