I started helping my classmates with Mathematics and Science during my school years, mainly by explaining concepts and working through doubts together. I formally began teaching students online in May 2025.
Since then, I have taught students in one-to-one online sessions, including Grade 11 Physics and Chemistry and Grade 10 Mathematics. My teaching is focused on clarity, logic, and helping students build confidence step by step.
When I begin a new topic, I usually start with a simple, everyday situation related to the concept. For example, before teaching optics, I might talk about burning paper using sunlight and a lens, ask how it happens, and let students know that by the end of the chapter they will be able to explain it themselves. This helps create curiosity before introducing theory.
In Mathematics, I often start by solving a problem without detailed explanation. This initially feels overwhelming, and I use that moment to observe where the student gets confused. I then break the solution into smaller, logical steps and explain the reasoning behind each one. Throughout the process, I ask questions and involve the student so that they feel they are helping solve the problem themselves.
By the end of the class, when students compare their initial confusion with their final understanding, they usually feel confident and satisfied. Helping students move from feeling overwhelmed to truly mastering a topic is something I consistently aim for in my teaching.
