My personal experience of tutoring I started tutoring English Language over 3 years ago and it still excites and gratifies me to see my student’s progress, watching them enjoying their academic journey and reaping the results of their efforts in the end. Through the years, my tutoring has evolved in many ways and I realised that it is a learning curve for me as well as for my students. Recognising points for improvement, analysing and later perfecting them has helped me to grow into the more consistent and confident tutor that I am today.
Through my time in tutoring, I have learnt that not only do you have to be good at explaining what you are teaching but also at giving encouragement and motivating learners, Computers can deliver information, but tutors can provide the necessary interaction to give extra support when you are struggling or praise when you have done well and that is something that can’t be replaced by a machine.
I can’t stress enough that evaluating a lesson is very important for it to be useful to the student. Asking questions as to what they enjoyed or found difficult at the end of the lesson is extremely valuable and something that should not be neglected. Talking about the lesson is something that should be a habit for a tutor in order for the student to extract the maximum understanding out of the class.
