Commitment / Other Details
Currently a full time O/NA Level Geography and Social Studies tutor. Dedicated to help students understand these subjects, I have crafted mindmaps, worksheets and sourced for additional resources.
Rapport Building
Patience and a having good listening ear help to build rapport between the tutor, students and their parents.
I will explain the direction of the lessons to the students and parents to keep them updated on the progress of the lessons.

Being friendly and open to questions, students can feel at ease and share their thoughts freely with me. This aids my understanding of their train of thoughts, their subject mastery and their overall personalities.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
Constantly updating my resources using news articles and current affairs. These are brought into the lesson at appropriate junctures to help students see the relevance of the subject.
As a Good Tutor
I feel that a good tutor is committed to understand the needs of the student and will find ways to help them understand the subject. By providing clear explanations using words, diagrams and videos, I can bridge the gap between the known and the unknown.

I also believe that a good tutor can motivate the student to explain ideas in their own words so that they are more engaged in the learning, hence instilling more confidence in the subject.

A good tutor should also allow the student to explore their own interests in the subject, even if it is not in the syllabus. This can give students make meaning of the subject in their own ways. Through the student's interests, the tutor can link the concepts back to the syllabus.
