Chinese, as a language is a common tool in the world now. Chinese studying should be started as early as possible. My teaching strength is not only because I am a native speaker, but because I am familiar with Chinese and PLSE exam in Singapore. I hope I could get more and more students to enjoy it and make a further improvement in Chinese studying.

      Rapport Building
      I would usually try to direct my lessons based on what interest my students and align according to the expectations parents have of their child. I also highly encourage students to ask questions and gain curiosity about anything beyond the textbook because I believe that's where learning actually begins.
      Keeping Up with Curriculum
      I would regularly ensure that my questions and teaching styles are congruent with the current syllabus by keeping myself updated with the latest TYS questions.
      As a Good Tutor
      I believe that a good tutor should possess, more than knowledge and hard skills, the perseverance, patience and humility in imparting knowledge to others.

          Rapport Building
          I think a good tutor is one who starts out being a friend to the student. When students know that they have someone to reach out to, they are more willing to be frank about the problems and issues that they are facing in school, academics or otherwise. More importantly, students are more receptive to listening and learning if I adopt this "mentor-friend" approach. Most students have issues with studying techniques and/or are distracted/not motivated to do work. This is probably the main reason why they are not doing well in school. For students like these, I try my best to figure out what is it that they are doing wrong and to work on proper studying techniques for the benefit in all other subjects. Unmotivated students need a mentor who is willing to listen to their problems and to teach them to understand how to learn and not to study. On the other hand, for stellar students who are already performing well in school, tuition is a platform for them to work harder on what they are already good in, so that they can achieve their A in school. As a tutor, I see myself as a friend and very much a mentor. Having gone through the rigour of Singapore's education, I understand the pressures that students face. I was lucky to have a very good support system at home and in school and I hope to be able to coach/mentor my students in the same way too. I am always happy to chat with my students on Whatsapp/SMS so that they can send me questions even on days where I do not have tuition with them. Even if they do not have any questions and would love just to chat with me - I am more than happy to chat/listen.
          Keeping Up with Curriculum
          I keep myself updated with the news and I will go through the assessment books once in a while when I help to purchase my brothers' assessment books.
          As a Good Tutor
          I think that there is no "good tutor" but an effective tutor is one who is able to identify the students' weak areas and is able to devise a good strategy/studying technique to assist the student. I believe that it is far more important for me to teach students "how to learn" than "what to study" as the former helps the students to benefit in the long run.

          It is important to first set objectives and manage expectations of students and parents. Constant follow-up, not just during the tutoring sessions, give peace of mind that student's progress is monitored and timely remedial action will be taken.
          Keeping Up with Curriculum
          Being a writer for more than 10 years, the syllabus changes are at my finger tips. However, more often than not, major syllabus changes happen only every half a decade. most changes are slight tweak of the curriculum.
