Rapport Building
I get to know students and their studying methods, as I believe tuition is beyond getting the grades but teaching a student how to study independently. I will also enquire about a parents aim for the student and the student's own goal when it comes to studies to form a common goal to work towards throughout the tuition period.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
Having recently graduated JC and then going back to teach Sec 3 and 4 students in National Junior College, I am updated with the curriculum. I also have a younger brother who is currently in JC with his old materials still with me. If I find myself unaware with my tutee's curriculum requirement, I will read up on the syllabus beforehand.
As a Good Tutor
they should teach students not just what is in the syllabus but how to study independently for a fruitful tuition experience. Tutors should also partake in positive affirmation, encouraging their tutees to set their own goals and help them reach their goals. This is while being consistent and discipled with the tutee.

          I would be returning to Singapore from mid-july 2018 onwards and able to commit long term. Would prefer private tuition. I have a flexible schedule (:
          Rapport Building
          I give my number to my students so that they can contact me via whatsapp should they have any questions especially leading up to their exams/tests (do send pictures as well!). Students should feel free to arrange any last minute additional classes with me should they have any questions or want additional practise. Would be more than happy to keep in contact with parents to update them on their child's progress as well.
          Keeping Up with Curriculum
          I have siblings, cousins and friends from top secondary and junior colleges (Hwa Chong Institution, Raffles, St nicholas etc) and would ask for their school material to collate a comprehensive list of questions and notes given to the students. I myself have graduate from HCI a few years ago and would I am still in touch with the curriculum.
          As a Good Tutor
          I think the basic qualities of a good teacher is commitment, responsibility and knowledge of the subject matter. As tutors, we may not always have the solutions to all the questions. Should we have a problem which we are uncertain about, we need to take the responsibility to find out for our students and respond to them promptly and not simply brush off the question or given a vague reply. Extensive reading to self improve is also important so as to be able to stretch the student. Being patient and flexible in altering the class to best fit the student's learning is also critical.

            Rapport Building
            As I have an out-going personality, and my experience in the events field, I am able to communicate well with parents as well as children. I am able to understand them on a certain level as I understand certain kids are a little slower in learning than others.
            Keeping Up with Curriculum
            As I am currently still studying, I have quite a number of books and resources on hand that may help with the current syllabus. As mentioned, I have a niece that is in primary school, and I have just graduated from my secondary school 4 years ago. If there are syllabus that I have not seen before, I will take time out to learn them so as to be able to teach your kid.
            As a Good Tutor
            I feel that a good tutor should not only teach the how to do the questions that they have, but also to help them understand the different ways that the setter may phrase the question. Also, a good tutor should understand the learning attitude of the child before diving right into the paper.

              I have working experience with the Ministry of Social and Family Development (MSF Child Protection) as a Child Protection Coordinator and also in the Institute of Mental Health, National Addictions Management Service & National Council on Problem Gambling (IMH, NAMS & NCPG) as a Para-Counselor. I have gained some experiences handling cases that deal with children aged 16 and below related to abusive situations. had also developed skills like critical thinking, problem solving and knowledge while working in the childcare and student care industry. I have also been tutoring part-time to students from different schools for the past 10 years assisting them to upgrade not only in education but also in their character and skills.
              Keeping Up with Curriculum
              In order for teachers to remain effective over the years, they must keep up-to-date with constant changes in educational research, development and policy. There are now digital ways to also keep up to date with the changing curriculum. Every tutor learns with each student and is given the opportunity to learn the changing curriculum and time in the education system.
              As a Good Tutor
              Every student has an ability and as a tutor i believe in identifying them and assisting them to develop on these potentials.

                I am able to start immediately, and I can commit to tuition assignments indefinitely. I am free on Mondays, Thursdays, and Fridays. From August, dependent on my NUS school schedule.
                Rapport Building
                As a former homeschooler who has made it all the way to NUS, I believe in motivating the students to learn and develop their interest in the subjects they are learning. When the students are motivated and interested, they will naturally learn. This can be encouraged through the use of healthy incentives and support and encouragement from the tutor.

                Healthy rapport with the parents is also important, as parents are important facilitators in the child's learning. Expectations should be discussed and realistic goals should be set in consultation with the student.

                I also believe discipline and hard work is immensely important to the success of the student.
                Keeping Up with Curriculum
                As a current undergraduate at National University of Singapore, pursuing History as a scholar on the Ong Chit Chung Memorial Scholarship, I am acquainted with the professors who are involved in developing the national education syllabus and it is a privilege to study under them.

                I have also done very well in their classes. Though I was homeschooled, In terms of national education and history, I have done much further reading and have kept up to date with current events as well the national curriculum. In terms of English, I am highly proficient, scoring A+ grades for my academic writing (top 3% of the NUS cohort) and have done extremely well on my graded assignments as well as recent examinations.
                As a Good Tutor
                I believe a good tutor should be patient and have the best interests of the student at heart. I believe that the tutor should also be able to plan out concrete steps for the student to improve and plan with the student on the goals to be achieved. I would not mind giving a free/discounted lesson or two to try out as the student would need to be comfortable with the tutor and I would also like to get acquainted with the student so I can better tailor the learning style to suit the child and also communicate my plans with the parents.
