Currently a Full time lecturer in Infocomm Technology. 8 years of part-time tutoring experience in Elementary and Additional Maths. Students came to me with grade ranges from D7 to F9, and their O levels scores are between range of A1 to B3.
With a good learning attitude, i believe every student has a good chance to get a good grade for their subjects. What they need is someone to give them some guidance and lots of motivations!
Able to commit at least a year. I am able to start taking assignments again in July 2014.
I am also holding Maths group tuition at my place on Saturday evenings 5pm till 7pm. (Maximum 4 students)
Rapport Building
I have 14 years of experience working with different students and parents. In other to build good rapports with them, we have to be truthful to them, and learn to understand them from their point of views. The main objective is to break down walls that have been build even before they meet you. I always make it a point to respect a student's and a parent's view and work around it together as a small team.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
Had active sharing with students during tuition sessions and keeping track of the textbooks and teaching styles used by their schools. I believe students are the best source for the latest curriculum.
I met up occasionally with a few friends working in MOE, exchange pointers with fellow tutor friends and check out the latest textbooks at bookstores.
As a Good Tutor
1. Be responsible
2. Be a good listener to the student and parents
3. Facilitate and not teach
4. Be a good role model to the students
