i believe that having a great relationship with the parents is the most crucial part of a child's education jouurney. Because as a teacher , we are not able to observe the child on a daily basis. we can only get to know them from the short tuition session adn can infer slightly from the test results. i think this is when the up to date feedback on the parents comes into play. Tuition teachers and parents should work hand in hand to know more about the strengths and weaknesses of the child. This is to ensure that even after i leave when the lesson is over, the education of the child does not stop. the follow up actions by the parents will be able to benefit the child greatly.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
i have friends who are secondary and primary school teachers and they will give me up to date infos about the syllabus. Also, i will visit the moe website to find out and analyse the current exam trend and get the child ready for future exams.
As a Good Tutor
the basic qualities of a good tutor are patience, dedication and understanding.

As a teacher, our job is to nurture the students throughout their learning journey. We are suppose to guide them through the paths that they have never walked before. Of course, it is easy for us to solve problems and answer questions at their level because we are grown ups. but we must understand that it is their first time solving it. Being patient about explanation henceforth is a key attribute of a good tutor.

Dedication comes into play in the long run. If a child cannot receive consistent education and guidance from the same tutor, he/she will not be able to benefit as much. The teacher need to put in the dedication when it comes to scheduling class weekly and making the extra effort of buying necessary materials for the kid. Only then , in the long run the child is able to keep up with the pace at a consistent rate and make improvements.

Understanding the strength and weaknesses of the child is the basic fundamental of every teacher. we cant give the right advice and do the right exercises of we are not clear about what this child need to improve. Identifying the correct strength and weakness will help to improve the student faster and better. Practice does not make perfect, it is by practicing the right things, then it will make perfect.

        I am driven by inspiring students to understand the subjects they are studying, and help them to achieve their potentials academically. I specialise in Primary School Math as well as S1-4 E/A Math. Drawn to the industry by the spark I see in students when they finally understand something they have been struggling with, and gain motivation to learn more. I am also a registered MOE instructor for enrichment programmes taught in schools.

            The CELTA method of lesson planning starts with the main aim of the lesson. I would then decide what lesson framework to follow. Once the most suitable approach for a skills (receptive or productive) lesson or a systems (grammar, lexis, functions) lesson has been chosen, I then decide what is the aim of each stage for that particular approach. The language must suit the context and the main content of the text should be presented as functional and situational language.

                    Rapport Building
                    I would usually begin by engaging tutors on their academic expectations. To better help them reach their goals, it is important to understand more specifically what they would like to achieve. Considering a student's level of motivation is often a reflection of his or her expectations, this usually allows me to gauge how I could better approach a student in terms of tutoring.

                    For younger students, this engagement usually extends to the parents as well. As their parents are their first teachers, it is important to get a rough sensing as to the learning ability of the child and the best methods to engage him or her.

                    Through these conversations, I build rapport with the students as they understand that I am tutoring them with the genuine intention of seeing them achieve their goals.
                    Keeping Up with Curriculum
                    First and foremost, i will do some research and my own reading as to the best learning materials to use to guide the student. For example the best guidebooks or assessment books i could make use of. Through this research, I am able to update myself on the most recent changes to the curriculum.

                    To ensure I understand the way students are being accessed, I would buy recent examination papers and ten year series to have a good understanding on what the examiner expects from the students. This will allow me to teach them how to score.
                    As a Good Tutor
                    The first quality to have, I believe, would be the ability to connect with the students. This is particularly so for younger students who often lack the courage to raise their concerns in fear of being scolded or embarrassed. As a tutor, if I am able to instill confidence in my students that i am someone they can freely talk to, I will be able to better understand which areas to cover and ways to approach tutoring him or her.

                    Another quality would be faith. It is important for a tutor to believe in his or her tutee if they are expected to succeed. I firmly believe a student is often able to tell if their tutor believes in their ability and are heavily impacted by this belief. In my years as a student, I have often come by teachers who far to often show they do not think their students would do well and are hence simply going through motions. This could only serve to worsen the students situation. Hence, I am committed to not giving up on any of my students, pushing them and working with them to the very last moment.
