Tuition/Teaching Experience
I have just graduated from NIE with a Bachelor of Arts (Education). I specialize in Geography and English in the secondary track. Having taught in a neighbourhood school and an autonomous girl's school, I have valuable experiences in dealing with students from various backgrounds and with different learning styles. My tutoring experience has been equally spread across Geography, English and Social Studies, in both individual and group settings (at a popular tuition centre as well as my own group class). At least 4 of my students have been under my tutelage for 2 years and they can testify that they enjoy the value-addedness I add to their learning of English. I inculcate values and awareness of real-life issues into my lessons and engage them in discussions.

Keeping Up with Curriculum
As a Good Tutor
For English, I integrate language skills (grammar, vocabulary, oral, comprehension) together with current affairs and issues during lessons to broaden their knowledge, encourage critical thinking as well as provide opportunity for practice in expressing themselves fluently. Such exposure eases them in into expressing themselves during their essay writing.
As for Geography, I strive to make the subject alive and relevant for my students so they would be able to relate to the content matter and think critically about the world around them. This is already one step in easing them into expressing their knowledge into answering the exam questions. Of course, I also emphasise students practising exam skills such as 'explaining', 'contrasting' and 'evaluating' consistently until it becomes ingrained in them. I am also in full knowledge of the latest syllabi for both Geography (fieldwork component) and English O Level. I am able to provide my own materials.
