Physics and chemistry Tutor and I teach children of all age
Advert description
To me, teaching at any level has three specific roles:
Student empowerment
Democratization of knowledge
The betterment of humanity
As an educator, my job is first and foremost to empower students by helping them to learn, access information, and create new knowledge. This process is inherently democratic as it is meant to equalize access to knowledge, so that any student can learn any subject regardless of their gender, race, socioeconomic status, or other factors which they cannot control. Empowering individual students in this way leads to a society that contains more and more well-informed, competent and capable individuals, who will use their knowledge and talents to contribute to the betterment of the human condition.
However, there are challenges which must be addressed, especially in the teaching of science generally and physics more specifically. Physics requires not only topical knowledge and strong math skills, but also critical thinking and problem solving. While teaching physics I try to help students transition from a rote learning mentality to embrace more complex modes of understanding. I must also address a common fallacy about science, that it is a collection of facts. Showing students how these facts are connected, and that science is a creative endeavour at heart, is needed to progress their understanding.
There is also an elitism around physics, sometimes perpetuated by physicists themselves, that must be broken down. Physics relies on math in a way that few other subjects do, and while math is essential to understanding physical concepts, many students experience ‘math anxiety’ that must be addressed. Using language, demonstrations, and math together helps students cement the basic concepts.
I’m a passionate tutor and have a sound understanding of scientific rules and methods. I also have an Outstanding and superb instructional skill and I’m able to keep calm, and try my best to leave no student behind. As a tutor with more than ten years experience in teaching I have the ability to bring physics to the understanding of every learner. I must say I’m an ideal tutor for every student who truly want to overcome the challenge of physics.
