    As a tutor I will definitely feel responsibility for the student's work, hence I will put in effort to make sure he/she does well. I have always been able to grasps concepts quickly, hopefully I can pass on such technique to my students.
    Keeping Up with Curriculum
    I am currently still studying, so that would not be an issue.
    With regards to the primary or secondary curriculum, I will definitely check with colleagues who are tutors, and I have peers now who are part time tutors whom I can check with as well. I will do my homework.
    As a Good Tutor
    Responsibility is the main thing I believe. If I feel responsible for the grades of my students, I will put in the extra effort to make sure they do well.
    I also believe communication is key, so that I can understand the difficulties the student is facing in his/her work and deal with it accordingly. I must make sure my style of teaching suits the student as well. So it goes both ways, both listening and teaching.
    Lastly, I just have to put myself in the student's shoes. I have been in their position once, so I should reflect and think of advice that I can give them from past experiences.

        Rapport Building
        Being a relatively young tutor, I am able to empathize with my students. Being a student in Singapore IS NOT EASY. That is why I am always patient with my students. My teaching style is firm, but I do try to make my lessons interesting to evoke my student's curiosity to learn.

        I believe that for a student to excel in his studies, the tutor and the parents have to work together. After each class, the parents will be updated on the student's progress and what she can improve on.

        7. Maximal guidance from tutor since it is private tuition
        8. Examination strategies
        As a Good Tutor
        My first goal as a Physics tutor is to help my students to understand the academic concepts, because a student's grade is a reflection of how well he understands the subject. My second goal is to motivate my students to be curious learners and critical thinkers, because these skills will take them far in their academic journey.

              My teaching philosophy is to develop a strong rapport with my students. It is only when they are comfortable around me that they are more willing to ask questions and clarify their doubts. As a digital native, I also believe in leveraging on technology to provide my students with a 24/7 helpline to answer their burning questions before an important test or examination.

              As a tutor, I believe it is my responsibility to ensure my students' growth. Hence, I try to make my lessons as engaging and fun for the students, so that they understand that is it possible for learning and fun to co-exist.

                Rapport Building
                When tutoring, a tendency to be more informal could be adopted, and I always adopt a diplomatic attitude towards discussing matters with my students and their parents. I place an emphasis to be less cordial and formal, albeit still treating them with respect.
                Keeping Up with Curriculum
                Consulting the notes of my students, cross-referencing them with other notes allows me to understand what lies within the boundaries of the syllabus and what is additional information. Constantly studying the examination papers of late and reading the syllabus documents also help me to keep in touch with the patterns or shifts in paradigm of question-setting. This always allows me to prepare my student better to answer these kinds of questions by allowing them more practice and confidence in these question types. For my subject specialties in physics, chemistry and math, it is understood that application-type questions are popular of late, so I always plan to explain how to get around them and understand them, from a logical perspective as opposed to rote memorisation of formulae which might not necessarily apply to these questions which requires students to be adaptive.
                As a Good Tutor
                To get students to be less afraid of questioning what they learnt, not telling them what to think but rather, how to organise their thoughts, is a means of offering them advice to improve, allowing them to gain more confidence in their ability. I strongly believe in customising my teaching style and questions to offer better focus on patching their weaker topics and means of learning. This engages students better and the active learning makes it more encouraging for them to absorb knowledge and eventually improve.
