Tuition Background
MOE-certified Teacher
Tuition/Teaching Experience
I have 12 years of experience in tutoring and 4 years of teaching and learning in a Secondary School. I am NIE trained. I am well versed in the GCE syllabus for Mathematics.
Currently, both my Sec 4 Male tutees of 3 years are scoring their A1 in both E.Math and A.Math, my Sec 3 Male tutee of 6 months is scoring his A2 in A.Math, my Sec 3 Female tutee of 5 years is scoring her B3 in both E.Math and A.Math, my Sec 2 Female tutee of 4 years is scoring her high A1 in Mathematics, she also managed to score 99% in her recent tests.
I will stay with my tutee as long as he/she need me.
My longest commitment is a female tutee whom I taught her from Primary 4 until Secondary 3 ( 2013) and will continue to her secondary 4 in the coming year.
On average, my tutees stays with me for at least 3 years ( Sec 2 to Sec 4 generally ) and up.
I may be away for In-Camp training, but will make up the lesson in the weekends. Priority will always be given to Primary 4 and 6, Secondary 2 and 4.
Rapport Building
I create a relax yet firm learning environment for my tutees. I want my tutees to treat me like their friends, in this way, they can learn better. But at the same time, they need to know that I am their senior, where basic respect is a must.
I will provide timely feedback to parent to inform of their child's progress.
In general, my tuition sessions are fun yet fulfilling as i always have a target to meet ( e.g. number of questions to complete, topics to cover etc ) for each session.
I may not guarantee results but my tutees would achieve beyond their ability and score well naturally.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
In my approach, I adopt revise, learning ahead and practice.
Revise - to check concept understanding of tutee for various topics, to re-teach if necessary.
Learning ahead - to learn faster than the school syllabus ( speed varies with tutee ability ).
Practice - to practise with actual past years tests and examinations papers to refine answering methods, correct any outstanding concept issues and familiarize tutee with examination question format.
