Being a student in the field of science, understanding academics has always been of keen interest to me. The role of a private tutor allowed me to expand my personal understanding of technical topics, since students are often able to ask questions that one might have missed when they first learnt the topic themselves. This role requires me to teach topics in a more visual and intuitive manner than I had attempted before, opening up my mind to more innovative methods of personal learning and growth. The experience has taught me how to be patient, most of all. Students can often require repetitive attention on topics that can seem obvious to one as a teacher, which also necessitates communication skills on the teacher's part.
