Commitment / Other Details

Rapport Building: I will capture the attention and interest of the student to keep him or her engaged with the particular subject. It is important that the student is comfortable for me to guide him or her so that it will be easier for them to absorb the knowledge and apply them. Furthermore, I believe that rapport building with the parents is important as well so that we can work together towards the improvement of the child.

Keeping Up with Curriculum: I am able to give extra classes nearing major examinations and will be able to commit at least one full academic year.

As a Good Tutor: one should have the responsibility in preparing relevant materials and take initiative to understand the student better. The student's improvement depends on how the teacher guides him on her and hence we play an important role.

Qualification: Undergraduate

Tuition Background: Part-Time

Tuition/Teaching Experience: I used to tutor for free in my junior college days as an Interact club member and also for a friend's friend for free. I have a passion for teaching but did not do it actively as I was busy during my university and audit working days. However, I believe I can help to develop a student better with my brand of teaching as I do not believe in learning blindly but actually learning a concept well so you can apply it to every possible question there is.

Commitment / Other Details: I am able to teach on weekdays currently as I do not have work commitments yet but when I do start my new job, I may only be able to teach on Saturdays.

Rapport Building: I have very strong communication skills hence I should have no problems teaching my student. However, I do expect my student to learn proactively instead of being lazy and not willing to learn.

Keeping Up with Curriculum: From what I understand, the curriculum has changed a lot since my days as a student but I do actively keep up with what parents are saying online hence I have a rough idea what to expect.

As a Good Tutor: As mentioned earlier, I love to teach concepts so that it can be applied to every question instead of teaching students how to memorise hence I believe I can be a great tutor if my student puts in the effort to learn and be hardworking at rectifying previous mistakes.

Qualification: Graduate

Tuition Background: Part-Time

Tuition/Teaching Experience: I have about 2 years of teaching experience and have taught mostly PSLE students. During the sessions I aim to identify the student's learning style to better understand the child's needs. I teach Science and English for the PSLE students and have had students jump 2 grades higher and improve their writing skills. I adapt my teaching style based on the needs of the student and also had taught a dyslexic child before.

Rapport Building: I usually chat with the parents and the students of their expectations for the child. The current grades and performance level along with the feedback received from the school. If the child's expectations and confidence level is different to that of the parents I make it a point to explain to them so that the results that come after are along the lines of our discussions. I also hold regular feedback sessions with the parents to help them to understand how their child is doing.

Keeping Up with Curriculum: I have a large network of full time tutors and current teachers who I am able to get assessments from. We also stay in touch to keep each other updated of the curriculum and the important topics by MOE.

As a Good Tutor: A good tutor is always facilitating the child to appreciate the topics. Since tuition sessions are short, they need to focus on the problem areas for the child and expand on their strengths. The child needs to be able to understand the topics and the tutor needs to present it from different angles to aid the child. Patience to explain concepts that are difficult for the student is important. In my opinion the student should not be afraid of the tutor as this prevents the student from asking questions. However, when it comes to doing work the tutor should be strict and focused.

Commitment / Other Details: I am able to start immediately and can commit for at least a year. I will entertain both one-to-one and group tuition.

Rapport Building: I am an outgoing person and can easily communicate well with both parents and students. As I am young, some parents may think that I am inexperienced, however, be assured that I have had experience in tutoring before. In addition, the fact that I am rather young can be and has been proven to be an added benefit as some students may be shy around older adults and as a result, are unable to communicate well with them. Thus, me, being closer to the students' age group, will be able to connect with the students better and ensure that they truly understand what I have been teaching.

Keeping Up with Curriculum: I have researched online and I also look through assessment books from time to time to keep myself updated with the current syllabus. (Be it Primary, Secondary or Junior College)

As a Good Tutor: Personally, I feel that the two basic qualities of a good tutor are: compassion and patience. I think that I am quite a kind and patient person and will make sure the student understand the concepts I am teaching no matter how long it takes and that is why I have often exceeded the time slot for tutoring sessions.

Qualification: Undergraduate

Tuition Background: Full-Time

Tuition/Teaching Experience: I have 2 years of teaching experience under my belt, for both primary and secondary school students. Having started out a newbie, I have learnt to adjust various teaching styles to students so that they can get the best out of each tuition session. In fact, my students who were close to failing English are now best at that subject! Tuition to me is about motivating students to strive their best and realising their inner potential and interest for the subject. I am confident that I can help your child achieve his goals - not by drilling, but by realising the joys of learning through various enrichment exercises.

Commitment / Other Details: Currently teaching:

Free on Weekends (Further discussion for Weekday sessions)

Rapport Building: I normally try to understand the child's curriculum demands and ask students what they were taught during the week, then supplement it before starting on my own lesson plan. This allows me to better understand the school's learning culture and how I can help in the student's learning, which fosters better communication rather than enforcing my own lesson plan. Parents are welcome to sit in to monitor the first few lessons, and I will normally update the parents on the child's progress every month!

Keeping Up with Curriculum: As a tutor who currently teaches both primary and secondary students, I am well-informed about the latest practices for multiple subjects. I keep updated over the years through constant communication with parents and students, and referring to revised textbooks at bookstores.

As a Good Tutor: My past experiences as a tutor has showed me that I have a way with kids and younger students; a natural ability to connect with the tutee and allow them to be comfortable with clarifying their doubts. A good tutor is someone who manages to instill passion into the subject through alternative teaching methods. This means that a typical tuition lesson introduces different views from the ones provided in school, so that they have a holistic understanding of the subject and apply their knowledge better during tests.
