Rapport Building
I always believe in mutual communication and trust with every student. It is only through understanding the student, and his difficulties, will the student be able to both see improvement as well as enjoy the learning process. Simple examples that I have encountered in the past which I believe should be quite common among students nowadays, and overwhelming amount of work and pressure from the school. This was communicated by my first student to me, that he had a never ending work pile from all the subjects. The solution then was quite simple to me, adapt my lesson plan so that I would not have to, or minimise giving homework to the student.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
I still keep in contact with my teachers from both my Secondary School as well as my JC, and often seek advice from them. At the same time, they also update me with the changes in the curriculum. I also read widely about the subject beyond the syllabus, in order to cope with future syllabus changes. I handled change in syllabus of A Math in 2014, by reading up on the changes, as well as looking through assignments online, as well as seeking advice from my respective former teachers.
As a Good Tutor
A good tutor has to be understanding, as well as patient. Not every student is the same. All my previous students had different learning paces, different methods of absorbing information, etc. I believe a good tutor would be able to adapt his teaching style to the student's needs, to enhance the learning process.
