Marcel

Hi, I am Marcel. I am extremely enthusiastic and passionate about teaching. I work with a very patient attitude , believing that most difficult of things can be explained in simplest of ways. I truly believe that everyone has got 8/9`s A/B`S in them which can be attained with a little guidance and hard work. In addition, I am conscientious and enjoy the satisfaction of helping someone improve and achieve levels of attainment that they did not think they were capable of doing or maybe just didn`t know how to.

I like to tailor my tuition depending on the student`s individual needs as I understand and respect that each student is unique. The first step I take in my approach to tutoring new students is to understand and assess their strengths and weaknesses.
I use different styles and methods of teaching depending upon the student`s ability and attitude. My main method is to first listen to the student`s problems and help them to come to the correct solutions making sure that they understand and are involved in each and every step. I give my students the necessary confidence to ask me questions without any hesitation and often use everyday life experiences to explain subjects. I am inclined to use the reduction method . i.e. breaking down a large problem to small parts in order to make it understandable when I feel its appropriate . This method is particularly effective when dealing with problems in maths and the sciences and I have seen remarkable results in students when using this approach.

I encourage the tutee to take an active part in deciding what it is they need to learn/review. Past papers done in their own time normally provide a good basis for helping one decide which areas of the syllabus have been understood and which have not been so well. I hold informal but focused tutorials.

Experience: Although I am still at the start of my tutoring journey , I believe I have enough personal experience to teach and guide students through their secondary phase of education. Currently I am studying towards my Level 6 degree apprenticeship in economics (BSc) gaining first hand economics experience on the job. I tutored multiple students whilst studying for my own GCSE`s maintaing a 100% pass rate in the new maths GCSE.
I am now looking to re-establish my tutoring activity to aid students further.
