awesome session. learnt so much

Learner · 11 days ago

He is so calm and good at teaching math that he's willing to repeat it again so that you will be able to understand the lesson. 2 thumbs up!

Learner · 16 days ago

These sessions are so fun and encouraging. I love doing math when you are teaching.

Learner · 1 mo. ago

Best tutor

Learner · 1 mo. ago

Yes, the learners said they enjoyed the session, and they got many practice problems correct.

Tutor · 1 mo. ago

Thank you for greeting each of the learners by name at the start of the session! At the end of the session, I like that you invited feedback by asking them if they enjoyed the session. This tells the learners that you are striving to make the experience of getting tutored as efficient and nice as possible. As for strengthening learner confidence, you supplement their correct work with positive phrases like "good job, guys." This is great to motivate them to participate more, so that even when they're wrong or unsure of the answer, they'll still bring it up in the session.

Thanks Mr souritra for letting me know what I needed to know

Super class. Perfect pace. Learned so much today.

Learner · 1 mo. ago

These classes make algebra so much more simpler

Learner · 1 mo. ago

Awesome session! Learned a lot. Thanks for your effort every day.

Learner · 1 mo. ago

You are the best math teacher I have ever had here! I realize how many complex concepts you have helped us master in such a short period of time.

Learner · 1 mo. ago

Great session! Mastered new concepts

Learner · 1 mo. ago

I have improved so much in Algebra. Thanks to you!

Learner · 1 mo. ago

Great class, always effort

Learner · 1 mo. ago

Thanks for turning such a boring topic into an interesting class! I loved how interactive it was.

Learner · 1 mo. ago

Thank you very much!

Learner · 1 mo. ago

You worked with learners on a lot of practice problems throughout the session, and they seemed to be picking up on the main concepts you were giving them, so good job! If you wanted to, you could try and provide some additional resources for your learners at the end, but that's not totally necessary, as they're already doing fairly lengthy sessions with you each day.

Tutor · 1 mo. ago

You were really friendly towards all of your learners - I particularly liked how, at the end, a couple of them let you know that they wouldn't be able to make it tomorrow, and you were very understanding. Also, good job greeting them by name - even tutors who have been tutoring for a while (like myself) sometimes forget to do this, and it's such an important part of building a strong learning community. Good work!

Tutor · 1 mo. ago

The session was good thanks!

Learner · 1 mo. ago

Learned a lot. Really chill

Learner · 1 mo. ago

excellent tutor

Learner · 11 days ago

Awesome session. Awesome tutor. You have helped me so much!

Learner · 1 mo. ago

I actually understand how to graph quadratics now, also the last part of class🤣😭

Learner · 1 mo. ago

You did a really good job explaining what the linear and exponential growth and decay were with examples at the beginning of the session. Also, I liked how you paused the videos to further clarify what Mr. Khan was talking about when it came to Linear Relationships and Exponential functions. That is a really good way of helping the learners understand what was happening.

Tutor · 1 mo. ago

Souritra, you definitely have a great understanding of exponential growth. You had a clear idea going into the session, asking guiding questions at the start of the session to gauge the learners' prior understanding and using simple terms to distinguish it from linear growth before going into more detail. Using the Khan Academy videos helped your session be more efficient. I am glad that you did not fully rely on it, though. You paused at the appropriate time and annotated the screen to show how to identify exponential growth functions in action, allowing the learners to have someone to emulate when trying the practice problems on their own. Well done!

Learner · 1 mo. ago

Loved this session on linear equations! Thanks for making Algebra so fun.

Learner · 1 mo. ago

The boring topics are good too in the class, thanks for the session.

Learner · 1 mo. ago

Excellent job beginning with a test of the learner's understanding of the subject - so many tutors forget this step, and it's great to see you doing it. Beginning with a quick quiz like this is a great way to learn your learners' strengths and weaknesses, as is simply asking them what areas of algebra they struggle with the most, like you did. In future sessions, I would try to get your learners to engage a little more verbally, and not just through the chat - this can help to facilitate more active discussions and greater learning. To do this, I would recommend selecting learners (either just randomly picking one, or asking for a volunteer) to explain their reasoning for each practice problem. Because it is a lot harder to explain one's reasoning via a direct message, this will usually get them to start engaging in a verbal discussion, and can really have a positive effect on the session. Also, good idea with the poll at the end - getting learner feedback (preferably anonymous) is always a good way to improve your tutoring.

Tutor · 1 mo. ago

You did a good job of basing the lesson around the Khan Academy page - a lot of people do slideshows, but your method was effective, so I would keep using it. You definitely have a solid grasp of the concepts; the only major recommendation I would have is for you to make a little more use of the annotation feature - having the work written out visually can really be helpful for some learners. Otherwise, it seems like you're on the the right track!

Tutor · 1 mo. ago

Understanding and interactive, really good class. A lot of math and a lot of learning.Sorry for the Khan Academy streak lost😭

Learner · 1 mo. ago

I love the way of teaching, and how interactive the classes are. It makes math look fun to me. Really helpful!

Learner · 1 mo. ago

hm, what a hairy question😭. Anyways, the session was nice, also you have a very nice voice lol
