Parth

I am a second year medical student attending university college London (a top ten university). I have been tutoring for over two years. I have tutored on websites such as Removed and tutor fair, with over 100 hours of teaching on both sites.

Tutoring Experience

Using my teaching techniques many of my student eventually go on to achieve top grades
. My technique of slowly building a pupils knowledge from the basics and slowly upwards has proven extremely effective and those students who did the work I prescribed found their exams extremely easy. Some of the pupils I tutored had learning difficulties and other conditions which hindered their learning however with my approach of one step at time I helped them enjoy and understand the subjects. I am patient and I believe no question is a silly question. Questions are how we learn

Tutoring Approach

I am great at starting from the basics and working with the student to slowly develop their understanding to the level they wish. I am patient and will offer as much time and energy that is needed. I often teach from textbooks and sometimes I use real life examples and diagrams to help pupils understand the subjects. I can also set additional work for keen pupils so they can really get those top grades. During my previous tutoring jobs I have observed that those students who complete the additional work I prescribed have gone on to be extremely successful with the subject. I recommend pupils book two separate one hour sessions a week. Maths isn’t learned by memorising but by practice and improving skill and so I prefer setting a student some work (based on what I’ve taught them) in their first lesson and letting them complete it then going through it with them (answering any questions they have) in the second lesson. This technique has proven most effective and has helped many of my previous pupils achieve A* and go on to do maths as a degree. Similarly I recommend 2 separate one hour sessions for chemistry because I use the same techniques.
For biology I recommend pupils book lessons according to their confidence in the subject. More lessons are usually required by students struggling with the subject and due to the heavy content the subject deals with I prefer to only take on students who are dedicated and enthusiastic about the subject. I also often provide flash cards and mind maps I have made and have previously used to help students. Flash cards and repetition is the best way in my opinion to fully understand biology.
