New tutor— reliability stats appear once they've taught a few lessons

About

first understand how a learner is most comfortable absorbing information, then tailor my teaching to that style. From there, I gradually expand their capacity by layering new concepts in ways they can grasp, ensuring learning is effective and meaningful. This includes a lot of active recalling and application processes like past papers practise.
