Greetings! My name is Sejoon Jun and I am a current undergraduate student at Cornell University. I currently reside in Long Island, NY, but am at Ithaca for most of the months due to school. I major i... n Human Biology, Health, and Society and am involved in many clubs at Cornell regarding community service and health. I love community service so much that I founded my own club here at Cornell called Youth-Professional Alliance, where we help expose younger children to adults with professional careers. Additionally, I am the current vice-president of Cornell Clinical Advancements Journal, where we investigate recent clinical advancements in our modern society today. Other than my academic passions, I love playing table tennis and am a current coach for Eleven Table Tennis (VR version of table tennis). There's so much to love about tutoring, but if I had to select a few reasons why it's excellent is due to the fact I am able make personal connections with students. Being able to teach students and watching their faces light up when they understand what the answer is or when they understand a concept they weren't able to understand before is the true gift that tutoring gives. With my 3-4 years of tutoring experience, I noticed that students are able to be engaged and enriched when I first establish a personal relationship with the student. This allows them to become more comfortable with me and my ways of teaching. I try to make my lessons very fun and incorporate daily life experiences that students can relate to. An essential tutoring philosophy that I have is patience. Being patient and understanding with students is the key to help them learn and stay engaged. Having patience in tutoring allows students to grasp subject matter that they couldn’t pick up for whatever reason in the larger, more impersonal setting of a school classroom. Being patient also allows students to gain confidence in a course.read more
