As a chat-based tutor and essay reviewer, I evaluated each student's needs as quickly as possible using clear communication and adopted a concise and empathetic approach to providing useful and immediate feedback. I helped students to understand their method and reasoning, while also guiding them towards appropriate solutions using a socratic-based approach. This work blends customer satisfaction and education.
