Commitment / Other Details
I can commence teaching from January 2018. I prefer to teach 1-1. Additionally, I prefer students to come to my house in Lorong 6 Toa Payoh.
Rapport Building
It is imperative to establish good rapport with students. I do this by encouraging and motivating them from time to time.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
I visit my students' schools' websites to check on the current school curriculum, common test dates and examination dates. Furthermore, I have contemporaries who are teachers in the mainstream education and I do get updates from them.
As a Good Tutor
My philosophy of a good tutor is one who endeavours to do his or her best for students; one who is patient, tenacious and dedicated. Most importantly, one has to be passionate and have the students' interest at heart at all times.

    Keeping Up with Curriculum
    As a Good Tutor
    Most students don't actually require tuition. What they need is a person to teach them how to figure out the problem and to have a general inquisitiveness about what they are learning - or else what is the point of learning at all? That is my learning and teaching philosophy and something I hope to impart on my students.

                  Rapport Building
                  I normally build rapport by tapping on the Strengths Perspective Model when interacting with the students and their parents. Most importantly, I believe that every child has the potential to excel. Apart from the ultimate outcome [final grades], it's also my goal to inculcate the kid's interest and passion for that particular subject. As the saying goes 'give a man a fish and you feed him for a day; teach a man to fish and you feed him for a lifetime', I believe such a skill is essential for the student to further progress subsequently even without my assistance/help in the future.
                  Keeping Up with Curriculum
                  I have several friends or ex-teachers whom I have maintained contact with and are in the education sector. Sometimes, I tap on their resources and distribute it to my students [with their permission, of course]. Otherwise, I would provide them appropriate examples after reviewing their school exam papers and selectively give them according to their progress and standards.
                  As a Good Tutor
                  We ought to be patient with the child and rather than lecturing and acting tyrannial or dictating what the child ought to do, I believe a conducive environment where the child can freely express his/her opinions is a good platform for him to realise that it's okay to make mistakes. Because then, he would start building up that confidence and be able to slowly learn from his mistakes. Building a healthy spirit within their young souls is also important because instead of being aggressivevly competitive over wrong reasons like pride, etc, we should teach them that it's okay to lose sometimes and what matters most is the journey along - where they learn new knowledge, where they acquire new skills and where they learn their mistakes and not commit them again. I believe passion and love for the child is also important. Without passion and love for the child, tutors will not be driven to upgrade themselves or bother themselves to keep up with their curriculum and know when and where are the important points that are often blind spots where students make mistakes.
