Have you ever had a difficult student here? If so, how did you handle him/her?
4 answers from our tutors
Yes, I've encountered students who found learning difficult due to a lack of confidence or challenges with certain concepts. In those cases, I try my best to be patient and understanding. I focus on creating a positive, supportive environment where they feel comfortable asking questions without judgement. I also break down the material into smaller manageable parts and use engaging relatable examples to make things clearer. Building trust is key, so I encourage them frequently and keep them motivated.
Not on here specifically, but I have dealt with a few difficult students. I often alter my teaching style to suit the student's needs, if all else fails I would recommend they try a different tutor.
