I have actually constantly been the student that asks many! I could remember this being the thing that for a very long time made me really feel somewhat self-conscious in classes, but now after experiencing several rounds of exam periods I have seen many benefits of asking all those questions! I really feel that because of it I will certainly have a great empathy with my tutees, as well as hope that I can offer a comfortable space where they really feel capable to ask me anything. Furthermore, as a result of this I am currently much more knowledgeable about how to provide good answers!

I could remember truly beginning to like maths when I began to see connections between various topics in the discipline. Till then I had constantly delighted in the complete satisfaction I had felt through fixing problems and also getting to the appropriate solution, however had actually seen the topics as extremely particular and unique. With time I got a far better admiration of the skills that I had been learning as tools to tackle a lot more complex issues, and a wonderful need to continuously add to my 'toolbox' of mathematical understanding!
