Tuition/Teaching Experience
I am a current school teacher with 13 years of teaching experience. I am teaching in a primary school and am comfortable teaching primary English, Math and Science across the upper levels. I am well-versed in the MOE syllabus and am currently teaching English to upper primary classes. I have a number of years experience preparing students for the PSLE. I am both patient and understanding and have helped many students not just with their studies but with their self-esteem as well.

Commitment / Other Details
I am able to start full-time at the moment. Currently, I am free on most weekday afternoons after 3pm. I have my own car so traveling to locations will not be an issue. I have ready resources that will prove effective during tuition lessons.
Rapport Building
I am confident and articulate and am very good at building rapport with my students. I have been teaching at the Primary 6 level since 2008, attesting to the fact that I am successful at preparing students for the PSLE. I am comfortable teaching English, Math and Science and will be able to positively impact the students under my care.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
I just left the education service so I am well-versed with the MOE curriculum.
As a Good Tutor
Do call or meet up with me so that I can share more about myself and you can be rest assured that I am indeed a good tutor who will be able to help your student do better in school. I do not want to simply state that I will help your child excel in their studies as that is a promise that many tutors will pass off as a given. There are many factors that affect the way a child performs in school and apart from teaching your child, I will work on not just their studies but on their values and esteem as well.
