A math ​tutor from Clifton Hill.

As a private teacher I aim to form in my scholars a thorough perception as well as self-confidence in answering exam questions and having the ability to deal with unexplored issues. My viewpoint is based on the idea that learning takes place in an environment of reciprocal trust in which the student is motivated to think and find relationships for themselves. My practical experience has been that individual lesson has a distinct value to students through the option to break down the students' personal limitations to learning in a manner which sets the roots for a deep and long-term comprehension of the material.

Analytic thinking

My approach depends on the child's learning style and needs. However, my teaching ideology is built upon motivating students to think for themselves, applying existing situations wherever they can. |In my opinion it is crucial to provide students with a working skills and to practice problem-solving abilities for establishing upon this knowledge. Training a person to think analytically is at the core of what exactly a child should withdraw off any subject course.

We learn through examples

Coaching students belongs to the most long-lasting contributions a coach can do, and it is a process, which I find pleasurable and beneficial. From my practice, I learned the importance of involving children through examples and of pitching material at a degree that implies wit though not specifically knowledge, mixing the unknown with the known within a combination that brings the child the feeling of probability rather than that one of impossibility that authoritative and impressive methods may lay down.

Using a lot of practising

I start from topics the students are good with and proceed progressively towards more complicated fields seeing that their confidence is being established. I really don't lecture to scholars or ask them to memorise Information.

I typically involve test-style or prior queries in order to examine, exercise and improve the scholar's recognising and capacity. I additionally give a lot of emphasis to a number of the not so evident yet necessary abilities such as essay structure and technique, logical thought, and the effective use of graphs and numbers.
