Yeah, I think that's definitely something to be aware of. How do we motivate the students so they are able to let the learning process take place, which will benefit them, and of course achieve satisfaction in your role as a tutor.

Aww. Lickle babies. Honestly, feefers, I have to admit that at the moment, teaching kids, in a formal context, especially very young kids doesn't really interest me. Maybe when I have a couple of little tikes of my own, inshallah.

I'd consider teaching older kids, sorry, young adults, like 16+, but I'm more excited about teaching adults with practical skills they can apply in a meaningful way.
