To effectively identify and address gaps in a student's mathematical understanding, I structure each tutoring session around a specific topic where the student may be struggling. We begin by revisiting the fundamentals of the topic, ensuring a solid grasp of key principles and the ability to solve basic problems. Once the foundational knowledge is secure, we gradually progress to more complex questions that mirror the level of difficulty encountered in the classroom. This step allows the student to apply their understanding with confidence. Finally, we conclude the session with exam-style questions, focusing on how to apply the newly learned content across various mathematical contexts. This comprehensive approach helps build both competence and confidence in the subject.
