          Rapport Building
          In order to allow the students to improve in their studies, I feel that there's a need to have a bond between the tutor and the parents. Tutor may help to solve the child's queries and teach them more knowledge. However, there's a need for the tutor to update the parents on the status of the child's learning after each tuition session. Besides that, there's a need to advise on the parents' role in the child's learning journey.

          There's also a need to maintain a good relationship with the students.
          Tutors may be strict. However, being friends with the students may be an alternative option.
          This would mean that the tutor is more approachable and there may not be a gap.
          In other words, should the student face any difficulty, they will just ask the tutor without any hesitations.

            I am an undergraduate studying full-time at the Singapore Management University. Hence, my timetable is rather flexible to play around. However, I would prefer to start after 19 August. I will definitely stay with the student until the end of the academic year unless there are exceptional cases.
            Rapport Building
            I will give them my handphone number at the very first lesson. I always love to receive calls from my students, asking me how to solve any questions, no matter what time it is. I believe, through this, my students will be able to do their work at anytime and can look for me once they are stuck with any questions. As for building rapport with their parents? I will message the progress of the student to the parent once in a while and feedback to them whether their children are doing well or doing badly.
            Keeping Up with Curriculum
            To keep up with curriculum, I expect my students to finish all the homework that I have given them, to do the week before. I always feel that practicing is very important and emphasise on this very much. Hence, I would always jot down their homework on a notebook and expect them refer and complete it by the next lesson. Otherwise, they will be 'punished' with more work to do. This has been really effective for my previous students. Sometimes, I do get help from their parents to supervise their children on doing their homework before tuition so that we will not waste too much tuition time doing homework that should be done at home.
            As a Good Tutor
            As a good tutor, I listen to my students' troubles and problems. I was a student before and I empathise them. Hence, sometimes I will cut down on their workload for tuition. I always believe that practise makes perfect. So, I will still hand them homework but maybe not a lot. This is for exceptional cases too.

              I have taught a China boy English and Maths few years back, for 1-2 years and he was able to score from a 30% FAIL to 60% PASS!

              I used to be a preschool childcare teacher for a year, therefore i have experiences handling younger children too.

              Commitment / Other Details
              I am able to teach on weekdays afternoon (Mon-Fri) except Wednesday from 2-6pm.
              I would be able to commit for long time assignments.
              Rapport Building
              Normally i would like parents to discus with me their child's behavior and what they require from me in order for me to guide their child. Most of all, they must also give me the trust and time to prove that i am able to teach their child well and to score distinction for the subjects.
              Keeping Up with Curriculum
              I would normally visit the bookstores like Popular to see the latest assessment books that i can refer to. I would also check with my other friends in the teaching industry (such as School Teachers) to find out about the latest curriculum taught in schools.
              As a Good Tutor
              Besides being a dedicated and responsible tutor, I always aim to build good rapport with my students and adopt a long-term attitude towards teaching them, preferably all the way until they sit for their PSLE.

              Most importantly, my students must feel comfortable with my style of teaching and develop a strong interest in the subject in order to score good results.
