Commitment / Other Details
Just like how I tackle the problems in school work I also figure out what students lack and target their weak areas for improvement.
Rapport Building
I agree that rapport building is most important. So generally I try to follow the kids needs and only persuade them to focus on their area of weakness if I am convinced they are heading in the wrong direction. For tamil I can handle almost anything on the spot but for mathematics generally I need to come prepared with assessment books. I recommend kids complete the assessment book before class starts so I can mark and go through with them key concepts. I am diligent in turning up for class because need to cultivate good learning habits.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
I use assessment books with worked solutions from local book stores which keep up with curriculum
