As I mentioned last week, today is my last day of this tutor project.
I initiated this project since the 1 October, 2012 and I had three students in total. While I began with just one student, other parents who heard how much my student had improved offered me more work as a private tutor. I believe that this success was the result of my efforts to improve my teaching skills and the quality of my lessons. Through this experience I have learnt the importance of preparation in order to maintain a high standard, as well as how to think from my students’ point of view so that they could get the most out of our study sessions.
Throughout the project I have learnt many things, e.g. the importance of continuous improvement. In terms of CAS learning outcomes, I believe that I have met most of the objectives.
Increase awareness of your strengths and areas for growth – since Maths was one of my strongest subjects, I enjoyed teaching it and I felt I have deepening my understanding of basic concepts by teaching. In my opinion, teaching someone is the shortest way to learn things because in order to teach, I have to understand it first, and this gives a subconscious pressure that motivates me to learn.
Undertake new challenges – this was my first time to work as a tutor.
Planned and initiated activities – I always prepare some textbooks or other teaching materials for my students and this preparation was an essential part to sustain a high quality lesson.
Worked collaboratively with others – since I only had an hour to teach, a good communication is required in order to use time effectively. In addition, good communication helped me to think from my students’ point of view, which leads to better understanding.
Shown perseverance and commitment in their activities – teaching every week wasn’t an easy task, however, I have succeed to compile my project.
Engaged with issues of global importance – as I mentioned in my other posts, we sometimes discussed about global issues, such as global warming, poverty, and cultural discrimination, to practice my students’ speaking skills.
Developed new skills
