Commitment / Other Details
My teaching focuses on helping my students grasp key principles and applying them for problem-solving. I derive immense joy when I see my students improve and master challenging concepts.
Rapport Building
Building trust with the students takes time, is 2-way and is an integral part of effective communication with them.

In my past teaching experience, I had adopted encouragement to motivate my students and they took the forms of edifying words and small treats.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
The principles of the subjects are universal and fixed.

Curriculum updates in the form of subject delivery and exam framework can be readily grasped by going through the textbooks and assessment literature.

      Tuition/Teaching Experience
      Coached a student from Queensway secondary school. Through this experience, i learned that it is important to have lesson plans for the month so that each lesson as a clear goal and focused.

      As for my teaching method, i will go through a summary of the chapter and the student can take notes or clarify whatever concepts that he/she is unsure of. If there is any questions that the student face difficulties, i will question them to understand their thinking process and correct their misconceptions instead of just spoon feeding them with the next step. In this way, i can guide the student's thoughts and help them to understand instead of plainly knowing what to do.

          Tuition/Teaching Experience
          I have taught in a child care centre as a part-time teacher, tutoring mainly upper primary school students in English, Maths and Science. My teaching method is simple. I believe in giving students practices, to gauge their understanding and helping them consolidate concepts. From there on, I can help clarify their doubts, ensuring they make progress along the way. However, I understand every student has different learning styles and I'll try my best to accommodate the student to ensure he/she is able to benefit from my teaching. I have also been tutoring a P3 student on Mathematics for almost a year.

          I am able to start immediately, but might have to miss out on lessons on some weeks due to other commitments such as school camps etc. I can make arrangements for make-up lessons. I am also able to adjust my timing when school starts so that tuition will not be affected.

          Keeping Up with Curriculum
          I would usually have the student update me on the progress of his/her academics as I understand the curriculum varies for different students from different schools. I also try to keep myself updated on the syllabus by reading the MOE syllabus and referring to assessment books in line with the syllabus.

                  I GRADUATED FROM Hwa Chong Institution in 2013, under the prestigious Humanities Programme (HP).

                  I WAS AWARDED the Overall Top Student in the Arts Stream, as well as Top Student in H2 Literature, H2 Economics, and H3 Economics.

                  I AM ALSO THE AUTHOR of TheAlevelGuide Notes for JC Students (http://thealevelguide.wordpress.com). They have been very well-received by students, as they are up-to-date and exam-focused. Do take a look!

                  I TAUGHT General Paper in a renowned tuition centre, where I received great feedback from the students. My own private students have also improved remarkably, with my Sec 4 Language Arts student achieving an A1 (94 marks in EOY paper) in just a short span of two months. My JC 1 Economics student also improved to a B grade (Prelims) within two months.

                  I am able to teach on WEEKDAY EVENINGS and WEEKENDS, beginning in Jan 2016.

                  My rates start at $45/hour for JC students, depending on distance. If you are able to form a small group of 2-3 students, I am willing to offer a rate of $35/hour.

                  Lessons have a minimum duration of 2 hours per week, in order to fully cover content and exam skills without rushing for time.

                  I will be heading to the University of Cambridge to study Economics.

                  As a private tutor, I am able to tailor my teaching to the needs of each and every student, as compared to teachers in tuition centres. As such, I am able to identify with the different learning styles adopted by each student, and help them understand concepts more easily.

                  Having been a student myself, I understand their difficulties and concerns, and will be able to relate to them better.
                  Keeping Up with Curriculum
                  No one understands the syllabus better than a student who has just undergone the A-Levels and excelled at it. Not only have I mastered the content, but I also understand the exam strategies needed to score in the A-Levels. I know what the examiners are looking for, and I will impart these strategies to my students.

                  I have also created my own notes, which students have found to be very up-to-date, relevant, and exam-focused. You may take a look at them here: http://thealevelguide.wordpress.com
                  As a Good Tutor
                  I am dedicated to helping my students score well in their exams. More importantly, I truly enjoy the subjects that I teach, and am therefore willing to answer any questions that they have, and never give up until they grasp the relevant concepts.

                  I have also been accepted to study Economics at the University of Cambridge, one of the top universities in the world. As such, I will be able to help my students with their university applications as well.

                  Having been both a student and a teacher, I am confident that I understand the exam system through and through, and this will be invaluable to any student hoping to excel in the A-Levels.
