Tuition/Teaching Experience
I have tutored my cousin as well as my younger brother before, both studying in secondary 4 and secondary 3 respectively. I was coaching them in their mathematics as this is my best subject and have most confidence in teaching it. If they do not understand my explanation i will thus try to find another way of explaining it till they understand me.

Commitment / Other Details
I am currently in the national service now. I would and could commit to weekend classes the most and timings after i book out from camp.
Rapport Building
I would inform the parents on how well the student is doing whenever i can. And would also have them to help make sure that the student will do their homework and revise when they are free. With the student, i will be patient with them and will praise the student whenever they do it right and will not say anything to bring their morale down. I can also share my past experience on how i study and tips to the student and parents.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
As i have a brother in secondary 3 now i could easily get notes and tips from him about the change in curriculum. I also have friends giving tuition and hence keeping up to date would not be a big problem to me.
As a Good Tutor
To be a good tutor, we have to set good examples to the students. One most important point to be one is to keep them motivated and to boost their confidence int heir studies. As when i was younger i think that motivation and the confidence is most important to us. Tips on examinations would help in being a good tutor, examples like time keeping and exam pointers would be very helpful and resourceful to the students too.

          My passion is to teach and I discovered that talent I have when I was in P4. Currently, I am an instructor in Nee Soon Camp and I teach here too. I have always helped my peers whenever in doubt and they seem to understand me clearly. I can simplify concepts very well with good analogies. Most importantly, its not only about studies, but I will make the effort to inculcate values such as self motivation, perseverance and discipline.

          As a Good Tutor
          To me, tutors are people who help the student understand better and in turn guide them to perform academically. Hence, a tutor has to be motivating, patient, enforce discipline and definitely show and teach how to persevere.

            I also have a year of teaching a K1 child english and his english has improved tremendously since then.
            Given the opportunity to tutor a secondary one and secondary two mathematics was definitely enjoyable and I'm also glad that they've understood the importance of learning and doing well for themselves.

I believe that every student can be nurtured and taught, I believe I am a living example of hard work and effort. My grades in school were not spectacular but through hard work and a great deal of effort and good tutoring, I am able to have good results during major exams. This reflects what I believe in, everybody is capable of achieving through hard work and the right methods.

              I will be available every week and typical schedule for me will be one weekday and one weekend, I believe the right environment is very important for a child to learn and typically i will look out for places like CCs around where the tuition is needed and have the tuition near the home of the child and I believe that the child will learn better and absorb more without distractions from home.
              Rapport Building
              I advocate encouragement and if need be I will talk and share with parents about the child's strength and weaknesses and typically brief the parents on what I will be doing and what will be given to the child for instance for English tuition, I typically request a newspaper write up or a vocabulary quiz or a journal. Typically I prefer an encouraging tone and focus on rewards and reinforcements, however I will instill as well a thinking process, for instance in mathematics, no straightforward answers will be given, the child will be guided and induced into thinking and solve the questions, I will also reward when the child receives a good grade for exams or even improvement.
              Keeping Up with Curriculum
              I keep myself updated on the curriculum through reading up the textbooks and assessment books to better equip myself to be better able to teach my students.
              As a Good Tutor
              Encouragement and non-discriminating, as mentioned I believe hard work and good techniques can lead to success.

                Commitment / Other Details
                As I am currently serving NS right now, I would be able to continue giving tuition for at least the next year before going for university. I believe that I would be able to balance my NS commitments and remain committed to my tuition assignments and the students I am able to help. As for the timing and days I am available, due to my NS commitments I would only be available on weekend mornings.

                  Rapport Building
                  I am not just a teacher, but a mentor and I believe in encouraging my students to always strive to do better. I also provide regular feedback to my students and their parents.
                  Here are some testimonials from my ex-students:
                  Jiasheng (Class of 2010-11) - "I have benefitted tremendously from my two years of studying English Literature under your tutelage. Your emphasis on essay composition - especially structured and lucid writing - has informed all of my academic pursuits. I appreciate those long hours of your patience and dedication, explaining how our assignments were assessed and discussing the merits and shortfalls of our arguments. Your lectures on our texts likewise showed an attention to detail, with well-researched and salient observations, delivered effectively and often humorously. Above all, I am impressed by your attitude as a teacher. You nudged and pushed students past their confusion and timidity, to excel the best they can. As a student of Literature, I wrote more clearly, more boldly, and as a person I gleaned a deeper sense of the world and its arts. Thank you for your inspiring work."
                  Natalee Lee (Class of 2010-11) - "Just wanted to say a big 'thank you' (again) for my 'A' in Literature. I feel like I do owe it to you. Thank you so much for being such a dedicated teacher, and actually taking an active interest in us as students. I feel incredibly lucky I got to be taught by you. Thank you for all those extra one-on-one sessions, those comprehensive notes, thank you for the sheer hard work you put in to bring us up to the 'A' Levels. Thank you for making us feel like individuals worthy of effort instead of just another random student. I really appreciate it, and this is your 'A' as much as it is mine."
                  Tee Zhuo (Class of 2010-11) - "You are a passionate, caring and talented teacher. In teaching English Literature, you conduct serious study and discussion of the subject through introducing interesting perspectives and knowledge beyond the syllabus. In your lessons, you cultivate critical thinking and sensitivity, instead of employing a model answer approach. You have motivated and guided your students to score outstanding results at the GCE 'A' Level examinations."
                  Keeping Up with Curriculum
                  I regularly keep myself abreast of latest trends in education and the academic syllabus. I also maintain a close network of ex-colleagues and school teacher friends to exchange ideas on pedagogy and subject content.
                  As a Good Tutor
                  I am an ex-MOE teacher with more than a decade of experience and an excellent track record in teaching English Language, General Paper and Literature-in-English to students from different backgrounds and proficiency levels. My students have gone on to attain coveted awards at international platforms like the Royal Commonwealth Essay Competition; and to enter prestigious local and overseas institutions including Yale, UCL and SMU. I am patient, caring and competent in my knowledge of English language and Literature.
