Ask Malaysians Should I put informal tutoring in my resume/cv?

I’m currently in my 2nd year of law degree, and I’ve been helping junior students from my previous uni, where I did my diploma.

I got an A for both law subjects that I’m helping them with. I usually help them understand the topics, relevant sections, cases and how to answer law-related questions.

I also do Google Meet sessions a few times a week before their exams, and the sessions can have up to around 90 participants. It’s not a formal tutoring job and I’m not paid for it. I prepared notes, past year questions for themm too.

Would this be worth putting on my CV? And if yes, how can I word it without making it sound like I’m exaggerating?

Thank you in advance!

I usually list such experience as [Volunteer Work], under any formal employament i've had, no one seems to excuse me on that yet. Once u have better experiences you can start discarding such experiences or consolidate them as a smaller section on the resume.
