Private tutor in Vancouver, Canada
Education
I earned a Bachelor of International Economics from the University of British Columbia and an IB Diploma in high school, graduating both with a 4.0 GPA.
Experience
My tutoring philosophy is firstly learning-oriented, secondly goal-oriented, and thirdly based on an environment where a student feels curious and comfortable. My students have been most successful when they are able to fully grasp underlying concepts and theory which builds a strong knowledge base, this is conducive to long-term success. I achieve this by first explaining a concept. I'm a visual learner so I often use diagrams/charts to help teach. Then I often ask students to explain the concept back to me which is a tool I find reinforces the concept best and points out any flaws in understanding. This method, I have found, leads to the largest jump in grades as students truly understand the course material in lieu of rote learning. It is important that students set and achieve concrete goals, whether it's to get an A in a course or ace a particular exam. I structure my lessons closely around the course syllabus and practicing expected questions in tests/exams. Learning is based on independent thinking, which is what I encourage. I want students to sense that learning is fun, and grasping each new concept is satisfying. Lastly, I recognize I need to understand the individual needs of each student, I am flexible to your schedules, goals, and learning style. I have 1+ years experience in tutoring 1st and 2nd year UBC students in Economics & Statistics courses, individually and in groups of up to 6 students.
