Hi, I am Jie Ying, a recent graduate from NTU. With prior experience in teaching children, I've come to have my own ways to dealing with students with differing needs. I understand that some children need more patience, some need interest, some need discipline, etc. Rest assure, through observation and engagement with your child, I can adjust the engagement type that's best suited for your child.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
As a Good Tutor
I believe that the best way of educating children is not just to teach, but also to invoke their interest to learn. For when there's a will, there's a way. Nothing can stop a willing mind. My role will be to teach, and to instill interest to learn.

      To better communicate with the students, I will assist in understanding the student's way of learning and give advice accordingly. As a student myself, I fully understand the struggles they feel in academic work and would like to share exam tips that will allow them to study smart and score better in the exams, and to improve their morale towards grades. With increased confidence and exam-smart tips, I am sure the students would see an improvement in their grades, as well as relationship with friends and family members. I would also contact the parents should i have any queries about the child's study habits and wellbeing, and encourage parents to adopt a positive mindset as they accompany their child along this learning journey. I would also update parents on the child's progress.
      Keeping Up with Curriculum
      I will revise the newest MOE syllabus that the student is studying to gain a better understanding of the various concepts, which will allow me to explain each math problem more thoroughly to the child. Should he/she have any problems with work, I can be easily contactable on my mobile device.

          Rapport Building
          Rapport building is perhaps just as important as being well-versed in the content that you are teaching, because if you do not have a good relationship with your student, the teaching process is not going to be effective at all. It is also important to build trust with the parents, so that they can be assured their child is in good hands and that their money is not going to waste. With regards to building rapport with the student, it's all about communication. Talk to the student, try to understand as best you can what kind of a person the student is, what he or she likes and does not like, and at the same time let the student know he or she can feel at ease with you, and can talk openly and freely with you. Getting feedback and advice from the parents on what kind of teaching style or method might best suit their child would be good too, as that allows the child to be tutored in the way that is best for them, which would be good for the teacher-student relationship. When it comes to the parents, it is my belief that being able to produce results is the best way to get them to believe in you. But even before getting results, there is a need to reassure the parents that you are serious and committed to helping their child develop. Some ways in which one could demonstrate a serious attitude and commitment would be to show up punctually, come prepared for lessons with a lesson plan and worksheets/workbooks but at the same time be flexible and open to their feedback.
          Keeping Up with Curriculum
          One good way would be to go to Popular to peruse the various practice books and text books there, and I can make use of my younger sister's school material as well (she is currently secondary 3) to keep up to date with primary and lower secondary curriculum.
          As a Good Tutor
          Patience is the most important quality for a tutor. While certain basic things such as knowledge of the curriculum, fluency in English and some degree of problem-solving capability are important, these form only the foundation of what makes a competent teacher. Above this foundation, qualities such as patience (and understanding and acceptance which are necessary for it) are just as important. There are all kinds of kids out there, and you never know what kind of student you might get, but regardless of the nature of your student, a good tutor should always maintain his or her composure and seek to understand the student, find the best way possible of teaching that particular child and never lose hope or feel like it is impossible to tutor the student. It is also important to be aware of one's own limits. Sometimes it might be more prudent to seek advice from the parents on how they would like their child to be taught, as well as to ask them how they would like you to handle the child if he or she is being difficult. There should always be a frank and open dialogue with the parents throughout the teaching process so that parent and teacher can share ideas and feedback to establish the best way to get the child to improve.

              I'll always check with parents about the students study behaviours and the student's past results to undertand them better, as well as talk to the student about their weaker subjects and areas to work on so as to focus on those. I'll also exchange contact numbers so that students are free to ask me questions anytime and anyday. Also, I'm able to teach almost all subjects so students usually ask me any subject that they feel they need help in:)
              Keeping Up with Curriculum

              As a Good Tutor
              A good tutor must be able to explain well and also make the student enjoy the lesson! If the student enjoys the lesson, they are more likely to learn better:) A good tutor must be able to pinpoint the student's weak areas as well.
