Tuition/Teaching Experience
I have a 6 months experience with a Primary 2 female student for Maths and a 7 months ongoing experience with a Primary 4 male student whom has mild ADHD, teaching English, Math and Science.

I am a psychology graduate, thus I have some understanding on different learning and thinking styles. Being through primary school, secondary school, JC (for a year), polytechnic and university, I have come to understand the different learning curve in one's development and the type of motivation each category of school uses to motivate students to learn. A learning philosophy I would like to convey to students is that academic excellence is the training of the mind, in which would lead one to fulfil one's life purpose and destiny.

    Commitment / Other Details
    I am able to give night classes on weekdays and morning/afternoon classes on weekends.

    Duration about 1h 30mins will be ideal as long hours will drain the students and may lead to poor concentration and tiredness.

    I prefer to keep the size of the class small maximum up to 3, as I feel that there will be better focus the students without the amount of time. It will be more efficient and less distraction for the students too.
    Rapport Building
    It is always through communication and observation.
    I always try to understand the student, his/her background etc.
    Breaking the ice is the first crucial step. As this will allow better communication between the student and I.
    Through this, the students will be more open and share their problems whether school work or non-school work. This will make me more approachable as the student will not only see me as their teacher but also someone whom they can trust and confide to when they have problems.
    Next, is to understand and know the parent's standard or goal for their child.
    Keeping Up with Curriculum
    i am still in touch with my school teachers till now.
    Moreover, I have many other friends who have benn giving private tuition for years.
    Therefore, I will get information through them.

    I will also update myself through the MOE website.

    I will also communicate with the student to understand what their teacher is teaching and will be teaching.
    As a Good Tutor
    Firstly, it is to be knowledgeable of the subjects that one is teaching.

    Secondly, knowledgeable is one thing but hardwork is important as well. This is to keep updated to the current topics and teaching methods, and doing our own revision in order to prevent ourselves from getting rusty with the concepts etc.

    Lastly, it is to understand the student well. And having a goal with the student such that both will work towards it as one. In order to achieve efficient results, it has to be both ways.

      As a Good Tutor
      -Being able to understand the student's problems in understanding concepts, and the ability to simplify so students will be able to have better understanding

      -Though having a good foundation of the subject may be important, it is more important to be able to explain well to students.

      -Having patience when teaching is critical.

                Currently in my final semester of university, pursuing a Bachelor in Science (Economics and Political Science). I have been focusing on tutoring additional subjects, such as coding and data science
                Rapport Building
                My primary school students enjoy my classes, as I attempt to try to make it interesting for them, and I hope that the time they spend on their academics does not unnecessarily increase their stress levels. I emphasise on the importance of not just doing work while during the hours spent with me, but to focus on correction of their past mistakes, knowledge consolidation by setting up time periods for studying as well as sharing some exam skills which the student may find useful while preparing for their major examinations.

                For secondary students, i treat them with more maturity as it befits their age. But even so, I still require them to be just as proactive in their own studies, and I emphasise at this age that they have the capabilities to take on higher levels of studying that required of them, which will only prove useful to them in the future. By building these habits in my students, I hope that they can really learn to entrust themselves with their education, and I as a tutor can guide them as much as possible.
                Keeping Up with Curriculum
                I follow the online guides to latest questions, and attempt latest test papers myself. Further, I have attended tutor workshops which emphasise which skills are needed in exams for students.

                  I love helping children to realise what they are good at. Each child has their own potential and I love to encourage them to always do better. Simply helping students to achieve great results and looking at both students and parents' happy faces will make me feel happy too.

                  Rapport Building
                  Communication with both students and parents are extremely important. Students and parents have to know how students are progressing and how am I suppose to help the students to keep up with their school work.
                  Keeping Up with Curriculum
                  I will always bring a book and write down the curriculum. I will also put a reminder in my phone.
                  As a Good Tutor
                  As a good tutor, one must have patience as children may be distracted easily and always guide them back to the learning. It is also important to let children feel that learning is fun and having knowledge is very important. Giving encouragement is also important as it motivate students to continue improving themselves.
