            I prefer to provide topical revisions at a time as opposed to revision of the entire syllabus in one lesson as I believe students have to develop a strong foundation to consistently score.
            Rapport Building
            Rapport comes with trust from both parties, its only when parents and tutors start to see improvements in the student's work can the tutor prove that he/she is reliable to provide necessary aid. Tutors should understand the student's main concerns with their work and address those obstacles directly.
            Keeping Up with Curriculum
            After ORD-ing from NS I started revising on my A Level topics slowly everyday to regain my academic footing in preparation for part time tutoring, as well as University next year. Roughly 2-4 hours a day is spent on my expertise back in JC (Maths/Science, which I will be mainly teaching). Sure it is definitely daunting to relearn an entire 2 years worth of syallabi, maybe even impossible. One of my workaround is to read up on specific chapters depending on the student's agenda for every lesson so I can target those topics prior to the lesson to better prepare myself. In addition I will be using my personalised notes and sharing it with the student as I inputted tips and strategies not mentioned during my tenure in JC.
            As a Good Tutor
            Some basic qualities include understanding of your student's issue, patience, and prioritisation of subjects/topics. A tutor should be able to identify the root cause of the student's problem and directly address it, as mentioned earlier. He/She has to guide the student back to their fundamentals if necessary to polish up on their basic skills (simple differentiation, algebra, etc) before being able to tackle higher order thinking topics (Applications of differentiation, vectors in 3d, etc) and from there on continue to refine the student's knowledge and competencies. With understanding the student also comes patience, and its a quintessential trait of a tutor simply because some students have a slower learning pace that which any tutor cannot predict prior to their first lesson. A good tutor has to adapt on the ground and proceed at a slow pace during the first few lessons to better understand the student's learning curve and help him/her journey through their problems and resolve it together. If it happens that the student still lack the ability to comprehend a concept, the tutor should maintain his/her composure and find ways to help the student better grasp the concept. Lastly on the topic of prioritisation, not all students would be able to equally excel in chapters for a subject at the end of the day. Some students would have a multitude of topics in which they lack knowledge of, and certain topics are bound to be more frequent in examinations. A good tutor should be able to identify which are the commonplace topics and ensure that his/her student is competent at, so as to maximise the student's score/grade in their future exams. In a last-minute scenario, the tutor should help work on the student's weakest topic before others to better elevate the student's score as much as possible.

              Communication is also key in building a firm relationship with the student and their parents so that the parents are able to put their mind at ease knowing that their child is in good hands.
              Keeping Up with Curriculum
              I have friends who are teaching in MOE schools and I will consult them to keep up-to-date with the latest curriculum. Apart from that, I will look for resources through the internet and through assessment books, text books and sample exam papers as well.
              As a Good Tutor
              Being patient with the student to understand what is it that they do not understand and guide them in figuring out the answer.
              I will get to know the student better, not only by understanding his/her studying habits but also how the student communicates. This is vital as through the way the student communicates, I will be able to understand how the student is able to understand their peers and teachers in school.

                I'll get to know my student's needs first before anything else. It's important for tuition to be focused on the academic needs that a student may have.
                Keeping Up with Curriculum

                I think it's first and foremost having the knowledge. Secondly, it's understanding how the syllabus expects one to apply such knowledge. Lastly, it's a fine balance in understanding a student's academics weaknesses and understanding how fast they learn.
