Commitment / Other Details
I am able to start anytime as long as it coincides with my availability. Parents can request how long they want a session to be. I will guide the child with their own assessment books/materials.
Rapport Building
I am new at this but I have friends who have taught in schools before and are very experienced in tutoring hence I'll be able to learn and gain tips from them. It'd be lovely if parents can tell me their expectations so I would know what I have to do. I usually guide students through their existing study materials to see which areas they are weak at and I'll source for other useful materials to guide them in their learning.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
students would generally have the best idea of the curriculum because teachers are expected to keep them informed if there's any changes. For language subjects, it is something that has to be nurtured in a daily basis and it is not based on a structured format so constant practice is the way to keep up.
As a Good Tutor
I feel that respect is important, to both the parents and students. Patience is a virtue. Tutoring can be frustrating sometimes when you don't get the point across hence it's important to be patient. It is also good to be fun and easy-going.

            I enjoy sharing life stories and will discuss studying and coping strategies with the students to assess their needs, difficulties and strengths. I believe that feedback helps and normally give the student and parents an update at the end of lesson to reiterate positive areas and how to go about improving areas of weaknesses.
            Keeping Up with Curriculum
            For O and A level students , I refer to the O and A syllabi specified by the Singapore Examinations Assessment Board (SEAB) to keep updated to the latest trends and changes in the Ministry-regulated curriculum.

            For lower secondary levels, I understand that different schools structure their syllabi differently and my approach is to get a scaffold/blueprint of the student's syllabus during the first lesson and understand the approach and direction that their school is taking and to design my lessons and teaching methods according to the requirements of the school. However, most schools usually base off their syllabus from a general template/textbook with occasional deviations.
            As a Good Tutor
            A patient, motivating and thorough tutor as well as a firm believer in the education pedagogy of understanding the fundamental concepts first followed by practice, practice and continued practice, my approach is to undertake a thorough revision of each of the topics in order to reiterate concepts taught in schools and to clarify any misconceptions at the basic level before proceeding on to the next level of difficulty. Following this, I will proceed with exercises (via school assignments, assessment books and worksheets) to assess the student's understanding and application of their knowledge. To top it off, I will also conduct a recap session at the start of the next lesson where the student has to share what he/she has remembered from the previous lesson - a sort of verbal test. This I believe would serve as a revision booster to maximise retention through repeat and reiteration.

            As every student has different ways he/she copes with and retains information, I'm open to adapting strategies accordingly.

            In addition, I also enjoy sharing life concepts and would occasionally explain and show how some of the academic points that the student is learning can be applied in their daily life and observations. Education shouldn't strictly be kept within the bubble but be applied to and explored in the wider scheme of life for a more enriching and enhanced appreciation of information.

                  As a Good Tutor
                  I will strongly believe that I should allow my student to complete his/her work at their own pace. I will never rush them in their work. In this way, they will definitely grasp more knowledge and concepts. I will definitely handle them patiently.
