PERSONAL STATEMENT
What I care about most as a tutor is bringing out the ability that is already there. I particularly enjoy working with students who are bright and capable, but do not feel that this is reflected in their English grades. Often, the issue is not a lack of intelligence or effort, but a lack of confidence, structure or understanding of what the examiner is actually looking for. I want students to reach the point where English feels much less subjective and they know how to approach a question with confidence. I am a very encouraging tutor, but I also have high expectations. I like getting to know how each student thinks, what they find difficult and what tends to make them lose confidence, then adapting my teaching around them. I do not want a student to feel embarrassed about getting something wrong or hesitant to tell me when they do not understand. I would much rather explain something in three different ways until it makes sense than move on simply because we have covered it once. I also think being relatively young helps me build a genuine rapport with students. I understand what it is like to be on the other side of exams, revision and academic pressure, and I try to create lessons where students feel comfortable speaking openly while still knowing that I am going to push them to improve. Ultimately, I want tutoring to have an effect beyond the individual lesson. My goal is not for a student to feel that they can only produce a good answer when I am sitting beside them, but for them to gradually trust their own judgement, become more independent and recognise what they are capable of. Seeing that change in confidence is one of the things I find most rewarding about teaching.
