Rapport Building
Rapport building is at the heart of my teaching style. From my earliest experiences tutoring students offline to conducting workshops at Vibhaag Foundation and managing immersion programs at MB Learning, I have realized that students learn best when they feel supported, heard, and respected.
My approach begins with creating a safe and welcoming environment. In my offline classes, I encourage students to express doubts freely, assuring them that every question matters. Many students initially hesitate to admit where they struggle, but with consistent encouragement, they begin to open up. This openness lays the foundation for genuine learning.
At Vibhaag Foundation, rapport-building meant connecting with children who had little exposure to structured education. They were quick to lose focus unless the lessons were engaging and relatable. By incorporating stories, real-life examples, and interactive activities, I was able to capture their attention and make them feel included. This taught me that effective rapport depends not just on friendliness but also on creativity in how lessons are delivered.
Through MB Learning’s immersion programs, I also learned how to build rapport in group settings. Students from different backgrounds often had varying comfort levels with participation. By mixing individual attention with group discussions, I created a balance where quieter students felt encouraged to contribute without pressure. Over time, I found that rapport in such programs extends beyond academics—it is about building a sense of community where students support and inspire one another.
Even on platforms like UrbanPro, where interactions are primarily online, rapport plays a central role. I make it a point to understand each student’s motivation—whether it is scoring higher grades, preparing for exams, or simply gaining confidence in a subject. This understanding allows me to design lessons that resonate personally with them.
I believe that good rapport is not built in a single session; it develops through consistency, empathy, and encouragement. Students must feel that their tutor is invested in their growth, not just their grades. By balancing patience with accountability, I ensure my students see me not only as a tutor but also as a mentor who genuinely cares about their progress.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
One of my strengths as a tutor is the ability to stay aligned with academic curricula while also enriching lessons with real-world context. Over the years, I have taught students across multiple boards such as CBSE, ICSE, IB, and IGCSE, both in India and internationally through MB Learning. Each board has its own emphasis, and I make sure my lesson plans reflect these differences.
For subjects like Business Studies and Economics, keeping up with the curriculum means going beyond textbooks to include current trends and examples. For instance, while teaching concepts like supply and demand or monetary policy, I connect them to recent economic developments, news articles, or case studies. This not only helps students understand theory better but also makes them realize how these concepts apply in real life.
In Mathematics and English, I focus on structured practice that aligns with syllabus requirements. At the same time, I incorporate problem-solving exercises, reading comprehension activities, and writing tasks that prepare students for challenges beyond examinations. This dual focus ensures that while students perform well in assessments, they also develop long-term skills.
MB Learning’s immersion programs also contribute to my ability to keep up with curriculum needs. Working with students who join from different schools, I learned to quickly adapt to varying syllabus expectations and prepare sessions that are relevant to everyone. The experience also made me more resourceful in finding learning materials, exercises, and activities that fit multiple needs simultaneously.
At Vibhaag Foundation, while the teaching was less about formal curriculum and more about awareness, I learned how to break down concepts to the simplest form. For example, teaching hygiene practices to children was essentially teaching “curriculum for life,” something that I now integrate even in academic lessons by emphasizing discipline, responsibility, and application of knowledge.
I regularly update myself with curriculum changes by reviewing prescribed textbooks, board guidelines, and exam papers. I also make sure my teaching is flexible enough to adapt—whether it means focusing more on analytical skills for IB students or emphasizing structured answers for CBSE learners. This adaptability ensures that my students are always well-prepared for their academic requirements while also gaining a deeper appreciation for their subjects.
As a Good Tutor
I believe a good tutor is not defined solely by subject knowledge but by the ability to make that knowledge accessible, engaging, and transformative for students. My teaching journey across MB Learning, UrbanPro, offline classes, and Vibhaag Foundation has shaped me into a tutor who balances academic excellence with empathy and adaptability.
My primary subjects are Business Studies, Micro and Macro Economics, Mathematics, and English for primary and high school students. In Business Studies and Economics, I focus on making abstract theories relatable by connecting them to case studies, everyday examples, and current events. For Mathematics, I emphasize logical thinking and structured problem-solving, ensuring students build a strong foundation instead of relying only on rote learning. In English, I work on improving comprehension, vocabulary, and expression, helping students not just perform academically but also communicate confidently.
Through Vibhaag Foundation, I learned that being a good tutor also means teaching beyond textbooks. While working with children on hygiene and health awareness, I realized the importance of patience, creativity, and empathy. Many of these children had never been in a formal classroom setting, so I used games, stories, and practical demonstrations to make learning meaningful. These experiences reinforced my belief that good tutoring is about shaping mindsets as much as delivering knowledge.
My offline tutoring and immersion programs through MB Learning taught me the importance of flexibility. Every student has a different pace and learning style, and my responsibility is to adapt accordingly. Some students require step-by-step explanations, while others thrive with independent problem-solving and advanced challenges. Recognizing these differences and adjusting my methods is what makes me effective.
On platforms like UrbanPro, I learned how to use technology effectively for tutoring—using digital tools for interactive lessons, shared resources, and structured assessments. This combination of offline and online teaching has made me versatile and equipped me to reach students wherever they are.
Ultimately, what makes me a good tutor is not just my ability to teach core subjects, but my commitment to my students’ overall growth. I view success not only as better grades but also as students becoming more confident, independent, and curious learners. My aim is to ensure that every student I teach feels supported.
