I had the opportunity to tutor younger kids for free, teaching them math, English, and history. This experience was quite rewarding as I helped students understand challenging concepts, improve their academic ability, and build confidence in their studies. Each tutoring session required patience and adaptability, as I needed to adjust my teaching style to match the learning pace of the kids. Preparing lessons and finding creative ways to explain difficult topics helped me enhance my communication skills. I used real life examples, and hands-on learning to make the lessons more engaging and relatable. Seeing the students make progress, from mastering a tricky math concept to writing an essay with structure, gave me a sense of fulfillment,  and made me help others more. This experience also taught me valuable leadership skills, as I had to manage small groups, and create a positive learning environment. Through tutoring, I learned that the impact of educational support and encouragement is priceless, and it is necessary for a student's academic journey. This experience also reinforced the importance of giving back to the community for me.
