Undergraduate / 'a new journey with bare feet' - U of m supplement [3]
One of my favorite extracurricular activities is tutoring sciences and mathematics. After attending my college courses, I spend my time in the library aiding those with poor comprehension of their science or mathematics courses. Helping those that have a difficult time with their academic courses is a very rewarding experience. Seeing them understand what they didn't understand makes me have a feeling of achievement. Sometimes, I may not know what the student happens to have trouble understanding. In that case, I do my best to learn and teach the students, making it easier for them. When this is not possible, bringing ideas to the table with the student is the best solution. To me, tutoring is a way of relearning that which I already know, as well as learning new and different approaches to different topics in these subjects. Through tutoring, I am able to interact with different students and improve my communication skills, while simultaneously learning different teaching methods.
