Part-Time
Tuition/Teaching Experience
In all my years, I have extensive experiences in helping my peers in school simply out of love and goodwill. I gradually found out that my passion for education is real. It is simply now my dream to teach in a world-class university as a professor.

I'll be graduating with First Class in Economics, provisionally furthering in Masters and PhD, and am looking forward to join the academic track of research and lecturing.

My capacity and ability of over 5 years' worth of tutoring, coupled with the grounding of relief teaching for a year at CHIJ St Theresa's Convent, marks me out to be more than capable. With all things equal, I've only overseen betterments, if not the possible greats, under my watch. That's enough said really.

Commitment / Other Details
To me, holistic education is everything, because nothing is presumably larger than life. Learning is lifelong, and it encompasses all things; certainly not just the books. My GP tutor once brought my entire class out to sit around the piano on stage, for lesson, in the day. And as I grew up, it's not hard to realise that lessons are everywhere: on the fields, under the trees... More crucially, it makes me understand just how important family education is, because I'm super glad that my parents have raised me to become the way I am albeit making those many sacrifices.

Personally, I dislike rote learning despite having memory prowess. I prefer learning by the means of discovery, derivation, and intuition. The most undervalued thing about learning, is how many can't see the values of its applications in life.

What I can do is to show the way, tell about how this is part of life, and stimulate the brain to challenge perceptions. I look forward to mould impressionable young minds via technical skills and critical thinking.
