Tuition/Teaching Experience
I see tutoring as a subset of mentoring. I've always built great rapport and relationships with all of my students over the years. I've been teaching ever since I graduated from Junior College in 2009, where I was one of my JC's top students. My specialty is in tutoring JC students in Literature and General Paper, in skills for critical thinking and comprehension. I believe I will be able to impart the necessary skills, and more :)

Commitment / Other Details
I currently hold a fulltime job in the CBD. My weekends and evenings, however, are free. My preferred time slot would be Sunday morning.
Rapport Building
I thoroughly believe that every individual can shine if only a teaching method is able to unlock the best of that student's abilities. I work based on mutual trust and respect, and take the time to get to know the student on a personal basis in order to best understand how to maximise his or her potential.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
As a Good Tutor
You should be trustworthy, punctual, and always have the student's best interests at heart.
