One year Chinese tutoring experience to P1 and 2 students. As they an Italian boy and girl, it is important to inspire their interest in Chinese, so I designed some games separately for their levels and also some for they to play together. I believe in learning with fun. I am passionate and love to play with children.

    I'm a full-time tutor and can start immediately. Tuition will be at my home in Thomson Ridge, Upper Thomson. Different rates apply for 1-on-1 and 1-on-2 tutoring. Please call to negotiate. Hours: Weekday afternoons and weekend mornings.
    Rapport Building
    I make it a point to have a continuing dialogue with the student over his/her progress and in identifying areas for improvement although in an encouraging and motivating manner--it's important to never let a student feel discouraged. With either solo or group tuition, I design lessons that connect to students' interests. I also often use literature texts to discuss students' attitudes and thoughts about social and cultural issues and local incidents. This develops students' ability to think and argue but also builds trust in the tutor as a mentor.
    Keeping Up with Curriculum
    I am an avid reader of literature and of literary criticism and also keep abreast of literary ad cultural happenings in Singapore. By maintaining an extensive network of contacts with ex-students who are now teachers in schools as well as with MOE and NIE staff, I am kept informed of changes in curriculum and developments/trends in literature pedagogy. I am also often able to access some of the best resource materials developed by local schools.
    As a Good Tutor
    The most important qualities of a tutor are compassion and sensitivity to students' feelings and needs. It's important to me that a student must trust me and have confidence in me rather than fear me. The tutor's authority must come from demonstrating subject knowledge and effective teaching, not from being stern and forbidding. As a literature teacher, I have three major education goals--to use Literature to teach students to think about life and society, to teach them the larger skill of analyzing texts, not just literature but anything from smses to spoken language, press reports and mass media texts, and most importantly, to give them the knowledge and develop the reading and writing skills needed to get top grades in Literature.

          Tuition/Teaching Experience
          1.5 years experienced in 1 to 1 home tutoring for lower primary school students in English, Mathematics and Chinese.

          Teaching lower primary school student can be challenging as they get very distracted very easily. The teaching method I used is to give rewards to motivate them to learn. Example: Giving english spelling and rewards them with a sticker if they get full mark. If they fail in the spelling, I will tend to encourage them to do better next time. With the sight of improvement in the student's result, I will compliment on their work to allow them to excel in their result.

          I believe that every students can excel in their studies. The higher the input of the hard work of students with their right attitude and the guidance from teacher will result in the output of good result.

          As a Good Tutor
          A good tutor does not only just focused on the result-oriented of the students but also nurturing the student's positive mindset with the right attitude to excel in his/her study.

          Being a good tutor, he/she is a mentor for the student to guide, advise and giving the patience and time to teach them. A good tutor do not expect the student to be 100% perfect in their study.

          In the perspective of a tutor, the fruit of success is to be able to see the progression of the student from the 1st day of teaching till today. Life of a student is like a stepping stone and enjoy the process of learning.

                Tuition/Teaching Experience
                I was successful in my attempt to help two A-level students achieve their target of admission to local university, in particular, NTU. The achilles heel in their progression was mathematics, which is my stronghold. Tutored by my ownself using dynamic approaches that help sustain the problem-solving skills for good, I would be glad to transfer to a needing student.

                Commitment / Other Details
                I would be able to visit twice a week and convenient time slots would include 8 pm or after on weekdays and 9 am to 3 pm on Saturday and after 3 pm on Sunday. This is based on the assumption that each class will last about an hour and a half to two.
                Rapport Building
                On my first two visits, I would encourage the students to open up, both academically and emotionally. Though academic assessment, I would be able to target their weak areas and implement productive measures to strengthen these spots. If they need emotional backing, I would be more than happy to sustain them. I am a true believer of the ideology that only if you are free from burdens would you be able to fuse yourself with academic related activities. From my third trip, after breaking the ice, we will get in the act and persevere towards excellence. As far as parents are concerned, I will afford them with biweekly reports on the student's performance and assert appreciable solutions to fix the weak areas.
                Keeping Up with Curriculum
                The core of the curriculum, especially in technical subjects like Maths and Physics, remains the same. For other improvisations, I seek the help of my relatives and friends, who have been trained in NIE and are working as teachers and the internet. Of course, not forgetting to mention that I will carefully look through the curriculum myself once before seeking their help.
