Chemistry mentoring & development

Tutor Information

About

School is not only about grades, exams and performance. It's part of it, yes, but too often the real point of education gets lost in trying to achieve benchmarks. I like to cooperate with parents and students who aim beyond that and have deep learning and self-development as the main goal. I believe mentors should help children and youth in finding their life purpose. My aim is to help you understand the subject and inspire passion for science. I believe that an educational process is about developing the skills, attitude and zeal needed to become a life-long learner, not a mechanical learning by heart just to better the school performance. I use simulations, demonstrations, selected videos, interactive whiteboards. I practise constructive feedback as a positive reinforcement and reflection on the thinking process. For each class I am prepared with an accurate aim, but I maintain flexibility if an urgent need comes up from you. I have 4 years experience in teaching in IB. I’ve been tutoring for 6 years and I will keep going for years to come. I enjoy building a relationship with the student based on trust and commitment. My students are of extreme importance to me and I strive to be a significant figure on one's educational journey.

Reviews

Wonderful tutor!

He treats classes very seriously, I always felt I can rely on him. He's well prepared professional. While having classes he challenged me to get better and cheered me up when needed. I really felt comfortable with Tofi and I think it would be the case with any other student as well :). Thank you, Tofi!

Reliable & approachable

I worked with Tofi for 2 years and not only he helped me understand chemistry but also build an appreciation for the subject. He has a lot of patience and really approach the class from student's perspective. I would recommend him to any student in need of help in chemistry.

Great Stuff!

Tofi helped me a lot by giving me time and space. He somehow understands the what way I don't understand chemistry and then makes it clearer and clearer. Incredible guy, I highly recommend him.
