    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.

            Tuition/Teaching Experience
            I have just graduated from NIE with a Bachelor of Arts (Education). I specialize in Geography and English in the secondary track. Having taught in a neighbourhood school and an autonomous girl's school, I have valuable experiences in dealing with students from various backgrounds and with different learning styles. My tutoring experience has been equally spread across Geography, English and Social Studies, in both individual and group settings (at a popular tuition centre as well as my own group class). At least 4 of my students have been under my tutelage for 2 years and they can testify that they enjoy the value-addedness I add to their learning of English. I inculcate values and awareness of real-life issues into my lessons and engage them in discussions.

            For English, I integrate language skills (grammar, vocabulary, oral, comprehension) together with current affairs and issues during lessons to broaden their knowledge, encourage critical thinking as well as provide opportunity for practice in expressing themselves fluently. Such exposure eases them in into expressing themselves during their essay writing.

            As for Geography, I strive to make the subject alive and relevant for my students so they would be able to relate to the content matter and think critically about the world around them. This is already one step in easing them into expressing their knowledge into answering the exam questions. Of course, I also emphasise students practising exam skills such as 'explaining', 'contrasting' and 'evaluating' consistently until it becomes ingrained in them. I am also in full knowledge of the latest syllabi for both Geography (fieldwork component) and English O Level. I am able to provide my own materials.

              I have been giving tuition for 2 years now, and have taught at Primary school levels, Secondary School levels, and even a middle aged housewife. Last year, my Sec 4 improved from F9 to B3 after a year of tuition.

              Aside from giving tuition, I am currently also giving Creative Writing lessons with an affiliate of Stanford University that offers courses for Gifted students across Asia. In addition to that, I also work with Primary and Secondary schools as a motivational trainer.

                Tuition/Teaching Experience
                I have been giving tuition for over 6 years while doing my degree and masters in NUS and two years since I became a full time tutor. To date, I have more than 30 students under me.

                Every single child is unique but when the bond is established, you will see your child's results soar and this momentum will be carried through his/her later years. The trick is to empower the child with the thought that he/she can do it with his/her own capabilities and the tutor's role is ultimately to serve as a guide in his/her course of life..
