Being a Tutor...

Go to Matika9 (Czech)

Why I haven't been posting

I haven't been posting for a while. I was busy with my studies and my job as a tutor. Yes! Ironically, I was too busy to post about my job as a tutor for children who prepare for the admission to the gymnasium (a type of secondary school in Europe).

These exams consists of two parts: a math test and a Czech language test. The math test is quite challenging, as it requires a lot of logical thinking and problem-solving skills. The Czech language test is also quite difficult, as it requires a good understanding of grammar and each primary school teaches in a different way.

The job experience

I've been an employee of tutoring company Vzdělávací centrum doučse, z. s. since August 2024. I was quite excited about it, as I thought it would be a great opportunity to share my knowledge and help others. However, I quickly realized that being an employee has some rules and I'm glad I've learned them quickly.

Still a coder in my heart

Maths is an essential part of programming. I often find myself solving problems that require a deep understanding of mathematics. That way, I could help my students with their math problems and also teach them how to think logically and solve problems in a systematic way.

And as they often asked for some math exercises, I made a whole website for them. I used Next.js and Nextra to create a simple website with math exercises. That way, I still could code and help my students at the same time.
