I am flexible and am up to date with the latest news and trends, so I hope to be able to build a good mentoring relationship with the student and help the student with problems outside of schoolwork as a friend and provide academic assistance in any field that I have experience in. Being a final year university student, I can advice your child on the important steps to take and ponder about on the route to a diploma or degree, and the relevant skills they should obtain in their free-time out of school to give them an edge over their peers.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
I am still a student so I deal with math and science on a daily basis. Techniques taught in school are still fresh in my mind, and I can relate easily to the struggles a student might face when learning new things. I have the ability to explain things in a simple form for students to understand and remember easily, assisted with my personal crafted notes which will give them an edge in their exams.
As a Good Tutor
I am punctual,hygenic and have currently no commitments but tutoring to expand my tutoring network. I will be available on whatsapp to answer their questions whenever they face difficulty.

Your child's success is my number 1 priority for me to succeed as a tutor.

    I have taught recent graduates and hence would be familiar with the syllabus.
    As a Good Tutor
    With that, I have an experience of 4 years and I have students scoring F9 for Amath to B3 in just 3 months. Students often find me patient and felt that their passion for the subject has reignited and thus inspired to do well for the examinations. Teaching brings me great joy and satisfaction when I see students making improvements and thus I would like to inspire more students that learning could be fulfilling as well.

        I believe I can provide and help students achieve a better understanding of Chemistry and Mathematics in their syllabus as a current undergraduate in Chemical Engineering. I also browse through the syllabus documents and past year papers to see how the contents change so that I can adapt my teaching to better fit my students' requirements.
        As a Good Tutor
        I believe a good tutor must be able to provide a fresh perspective and a detailed explanation targeted to the students' needs to help them clear their doubts and better understand the concepts mentioned in class. We should also provide additional guidance according to their weaknesses and help them improve and overcome them.

          It is important to know my student well, that means their strengths and areas for improvements. I always try to understand the needs of my students by asking them to feed back on pace and difficulties encountered during my lessons. Then I will reflect and modify for that particular topic. However, I will also gradually increase the level of dificulties by giving more challenging questions unless the students are not ready for it. Students need lots of encouragement to move on, but I will not hold back to tell my students the areas to improve.

            I think to be a good tutor, it is important to have understanding. Understand what the students are confused at and why they keep making the same mistakes. As I am also not an intelligent person, I am able to help the weaker students, breaking down complex concepts, and encourage them so that they will grow to enjoy the learning process!

                  There are certain resources that I look to utilize in order to stay in touch with the latest curriculum. These include published articles on government sites, MOE policy documents, school reform reports and research materials. Additionally, I am currently engaged in relief teaching in schools and that provides me with an avenue to connect with current MOE teachers. This network is an important source of information for me to stay relevant to the practical changes taking place in the curriculum.

                  Furthermore, I am part of certain specialized social media groups formed for educators. This is a quick and invaluable way for current teachers and tutors to stay on top of the latest updates by engaging and discussing with fellow educators. I also look to leverage on public materials found in the national libraries such as updates teachers guides and resource materials to keep in touch with the main updates. I frequent the SEAB website as well to review the syllabus for major examinations in order to keep tabs with the major developments for these critical examinations.
                  As a Good Tutor
                  There are many qualities of a good tutor and I have picked 4 key ones and these are also the qualities I stand by.

                  1. Committed

                  Most tutors work on a 1-1 basis and it is important to be committed and build a strong, personal relationship with their students. Working on a 1-1 basis provides the opportunities to work on a specialized way with the student towards working on their specific areas of improvements. As tutors do not have the legal obligation to follow through with a child all the way, a committed and responsible tutor is probably one of the most important characteristics of a tutor as frequent change of tutor can be highly disruptive to the child's progress and morale.


                  2. Patient

                  Most students who require tuition need that extra help to understand the curriculum. A good tutor must understand that certain topics may be more difficult for a student to grasp and taking things slower for them is essential. A good tutor should exercise patience when a student is having difficulties understanding a certain topic, no matter how simple it may be. Even if they ask the most basic of questions, a good tutor will always demonstrate patience and willingness to explain in further detail until they are sure that the student is ready to move on.


                  3. Adaptability

                  With individual tutoring, adaptation to the needs of every individual student is key. A good tutor will understand that not all students understand concepts in the same way. Tutors must be able to pick up hints when students do not understand and try alternative approaches to present the materials.

                  4. Diligent

                  Diligence is key in most areas of work but it is especially important for the role of a tutor. Students who engage a tutor are usually looking to improve in certain areas of studies. No matter how hard-working a student may be, if the tutor is not committed to working hard in staying relevant with the curriculum or being diligent in finding the right methods, the student will not be able to improve effectively. Diligence in preparing the right materials and staying relevant to the topics being taught is key towards being a good tutor.
