- Academic writing and research.
- Essay writing.
- Organisational and planning skills.
- Time Management
- Close reading of texts in philosophy and literature.

About Me
When it comes to tutoring, I believe that it is critical that the sessions go beyond simply a transaction of information from the tutor to the student. The development of critical thinking, ability to analyze a text and place it in a particular context, effective writing as well as continuous engagement with the respective study material are all fundamental elements that every high school student should have in his or her toolkit. As a result, my approach does not only exclusively focus on a mere surface-level understanding of the material but also developing the necessary skills to successfully use the knowledge gained.
In addition, I also attempt to make the tutoring sessions as intellectually stimulating as possible and interesting for the student. Tutoring is often conceptualized as simply a means to improve in a particular subject that the student is weak at. While that is the primary purpose, I have found out that in my one year experience of tutoring, there is a lot more to be gained from. For me being a tutor means instilling a passion for students for learning and encourage them to harvest a willingness to overcome challenges.
As someone who has been through multiple educational systems, the need for good tutors is extremely high because they can make that difference between success and failure in school, and I consider myself someone who wants to make that difference.
