In school maths and physics are often considered to be the 'boring' subjects as the teacher just gives a textbook and expects you to do the work.

In school maths and physics are often considered to be the 'boring' subjects as the teacher just gives a textbook and expects you to do the work. I aspire to show my passion for maths and physics to other students and help them grow in confidence in their abilities and see how interesting and important the maths and physics topics are in their curriculum and turn what initially was a boring subject in school into a fun and exciting subject.
I am studying Design Engineering at Imperial College London.
The first lesson is for me to know the student better and understand how best I can support the student and help them grow in confidence.
In my lessons:
I would take the topic that the student is unsure on and depending on their confidence level tailor the lesson to them.
If they are completely unsure we would go through the concepts first and then tackle questions increasing in difficulty till exam question style level.
I don't want my students to just pass their exams instead would like them to become good mathematicians and physicists.
