Commitment / Other Details
Studing Biological Sciences in NTU currently.
Staying on campus. However I will strive to accommodate schedules as much as possible.

I can start immediately. Willing to accept cheaper rates to accrue experience.

My preferred subjects for tutoring:

Lower Primary English/Maths/Science:
As a freelance facilitator for Outdoor Education lessons I have experience with dealing with Primary 1-2 students.
I was also a "problem kid" in Primary School, so I'm willing to approach these kids.

O'level English, Combined Humanities
Two subjects required regardless of where you study, they are often neglected by students and their parents, I feel that these subjects can be "easy" As given practice just like in Maths and Science. Able to teach Combined History and Geography.
My pedagogy is simple. There are common techniques in these subjects that once taught and mastered will result in improvements in the subjects.

O'level Biology and Chemistry
I loved these subjects when I was a student and I want to share with students my experiences and inspire them to similarly love the subjects.
I believe that the Sciences are best improved through a consultation approach. Only when the student is aware of what he doesn't know and isn't shy to ask will improvement be seen.
