Working as a tutor for Kumon has additionally equipped me with the knowledge of
working with children and being in a learning environment. As a tutor for this
organization, I have been able to work with students ranging from the ages 5 to 16 years
including preparing year 6 pupils for verbal reasoning exams. In the past it has been my
role to prepare year 6 pupils for SATS by practicing past exam papers. At the end of the
term, I would write a report on their progress and occasionally have meeting with
students’ parents regarding their performance.
The role prepared me for teaching tasks such as carrying out lesson plans, marking
homework and being able to cope with pressure and challenges that I personally enjoyed
facing as the rewards were more than worthwhile. Nevertheless, my experience not only
includes working with children but also adults as the Celta course allowed for training
with adult learners of various ages and language backgrounds. Consequently, this has
built confidence in me working with different age groups making my teaching experience
diverse.
In addition, Kumon has also offered me the opportunity to excel as my promotion to KS4
tutoring allowed for me to work with secondary school children focusing on language
analysis and various literature works such as novels, plays, and poetry. Some of which
include the famous works of Charles Dickens in ‘Great Expectations’, ‘Strange Case of Dr
Jekyll and Mr. Hyde’ by Robert Louis along with several Shakespeare plays such as
‘Macbeth’ and ‘Mid-summer Night Stream’. All of which together worked in opening my
horizons to various fields in teaching.
