      As I'm in my least hectic term of study in Nanyang Technological University, I would like to continue pursuing my passion of teaching, to help students establish a good foundation, and instill a love for learning in them. During my Secondary School days, I volunteered to be part of the mentoring team for students of Greenridge Primary School, particularly in the coaching of subjects like English and Mathematics. On top of that, I have tutoring experiences ranging from Pre-school English, Mathematics and Chinese to Primary 2 Chinese to Secondary Chinese and English. I am patient with students, and would hope to help each and every one of my students to Ace in their relevant subjects.

        One Pure Science O Level student achieved B3 for Physics and Chemistry.

        Three of my tutee who took O level in 2014 have obtained more than satisfactory results -
        one achieving A2 for Pure Physics and Pure Chemistry (her results was around B before tuition), one achieving A2 for Science (Physics/Chemistry) (her results was D7-E8 when she was under Pure Sciences) and one repeated O level private candidate achieved B3 for Science (Chemistry/Biology) (he jumped from D7 to B3).

        Available to tuition as long as schedule permits (e.g. not having other appointments with other students) during critical moments near examination. At the moment I am mainly doing 1-1 home tuition due to venue constraints and will continue to commit 1-1 till my students graduate.

        My current and ex-students can vouch that I am approachable and have built good rapport with them. I will try spice up the tuition by making discussion on topics when I spot teachable moments if the student raises a question and will make cross-references back to the topic she/he learns in the subject.

        I once coached a sibling for different subject back-to-back, if one sibling was not able to make it for lesson, the other would always want to "take over" the time to have tuition with me. Although at times it was frustrating when students postpone the tuition at the last minute (especially when I was already on my way), I was still able to apprehend as being an ex-teacher I am aware the commitment they had in school. I think my students are very appreciative that I am able to accommodate to their last-minute schedule.

        I also encourage my students to contact me if they have any difficulty when studying. Sometimes, they took photos of questions they urgently require guidance and ask for tuition support over text messages as long as it is viable to explain through texting. Delighted that they are willing to seek guidance after tuition hours, I would try my best to respond as soon as I can get hold a paper and pencil to work out the solutions. There was once, one student text me at 1 am but I was still awake and responded almost immediately. Although I would deeply appreciate that I have some private time, I am glad that they are thankful of those guidance received beyond the tuition hours.

        I give updates to parents on their child's learning and parents seek my opinions on subject-related decision making .

        I give updates to parents on their child's learning and parents seek my opinions on subject-related decision making . At times when opportunity arises, I spend some time to discuss about their child/children progress with their parents. If I find that it has been quite some time after my previous meeting with the parents, I will send text message to furnish them with updates.

        All in all, the tutor, the child and the parents, each have a role to play in ensuring that the child makes progress.
        Keeping Up with Curriculum
        The syllabus has not changed much since I left teaching in MOE Secondary School. I have also being in contact with ex-colleagues who are still teachers in secondary school whom I can understand more about curriculum in school. Also, having tutoring experience right after leaving service in MOE till now have allowed me being able to upkeep with changes.
        As a Good Tutor
        I think given a class size of about 40 in school, students have limited opportunity to have dedicated help from their teachers. Some students are easily distracted and affected by peer influence in class.

        A good tutor has to be approachable because he/she is the next best person who the student can turn to. Being approachable, students who are embarrass to ask questions in school will 'dare' to ask questions and approach the tutor for help.

            Commitment / Other Details
            I am able to start immediately, however tuition timings need to adhere to my university schedule. I am willing to commit to a tuition assignment for a full year, and may consider to continue tutoring when the student starts a new year too. All weekday evenings are alright, except for wednesdays. I am available during weekends too. I may need to hold make up lessons during the week that i have my exams or tests.
            Rapport Building
            First of all, i make sure to report on time and start work as soon as possible. I build rapport with the student by understanding his/her individual needs and building confidence in their subjects by giving encouragement. I try to connect with them as much as i can; i am their tutor but i also want to be their friend, who is sincere in helping them to improve in areas that they need.
            I build rapport with parents by giving feedback about their children after the tutoring session. I share with them their child's strengths and weaknesses, and also how they can assist me in playing a part in their child's improvement in the subject.
            Keeping Up with Curriculum
            I refer to the current textbooks and assessment books to keep up with the curriculum. I also research on the updates of the syllabus of the subjects which i teach.
            As a Good Tutor
            As a good tutor, i believe that all students have great potential. I believe in order to achieve maximum improvement and achieve great results, there must be the crucial cooperation and teamwork between the tutor and the tutee. I am willing to work hard to adhere to my tutee's needs, but I strongly believe that the tutee must put in a substantial amount of hard work in order to see results too. As a good tutor i make sure i give lots of encouragement to my tutee and recognize their efforts and progress no matter how small they are. This is because I have once been a student before and i know what it's like to hear from a teacher that i am making progress despite my current grade to be low.
            To sum up, i believe that the first step to being a good tutor is to have faith in my students, and have the end in mind. It may seem like a long journey to achieve the desired results, but with persistent hard work and determination of both tutor and tutee, the results are guaranteed.
