I hadn't originally planned to do this project, but since many of my friends asked maths tutoring from me, I decided to help them.
I have mainly taught students from our school's mathematical studies group. They are doing statistics right now and since my group already had it last spring, I had knowledge to help them.
I have noticed that even though some calculations may seems to so simple, for others, it can be the most complex thing ever and vice versa. This has taught me to be really patience and go slowly step by step. I've also come to understand that now everyone sees the same thing in the same way as you do.
In the spring I took under my wing one eight grader from our school. We had maths lesson once in a week and before these lessons I would discuss with his teacher and plan what kind of topics I need to cover during the tutoring lessons. Now in the autumn I've started tutoring my friend for the Math Studies finals and I've planned these lessons carefully, so we'll have time to go through all the topics that my friend needs help with.
I've learned that being a teacher is not an easy task. It takes a lot of free time to plan all the studies and handouts that you will give. Also planning what topics and how will the topics be covered takes a lot of time. I've come to appreciate my teacher's work so much more.
