Hobbies
Pleasant personality, very enjoyable to work with, interested in sports and documentaries. What I feel I am especially good at, is the way I make my students understand learn and apply math logically, by breaking down for them the difficult concepts in smaller parts, easier to “swallow”. I instantaneously adapt to their current level, by asking the right questions and giving the right examples and pieces of information (not just merely explaining “how to”), give them a series of thoughtful little “pushes”, thoughtful examples, and counterexamples, “build” small “bridges” of knowledge for them to safely jump to the next difficulty level, let them reason and use their brain fully to discover the formulas and the way to solving the problems themselves (with my help).This way they feel active participants, have personal satisfactions in success, memorize easier, and have much more fun in the process, especially when work is seasoned with a bit of humour
