Tuition/Teaching Experience
I have been a teacher for the past 6 years teaching in a primary school.
My specialisation is in Math. I always use manipulatives, games and multimedia to create interest in Math for children. Using concrete items for hands-on learning before proceeding to pictorial teaching helps pupils to grasp a concept better. After that, their understanding will be transferred to abstract form which is what is needed to help them excel in their exams.

Rapport Building
Regular communication with parents is what I always do after every tuition lesson. Topical feedback of the child's progress is given to parents too.
With students, I provide a safe environment for them to learn. Through a reward system, students can work hard towards achieving a goal at the end. Some time will be allocated for a heart-to-heart talk with students so that I can understand their characters better and design methods that work best with the students.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
To keep up with the curriculum, I often sit down to discuss about the changes with ex-colleagues and keep myself updated through the MOE website.
As a Good Tutor
Good tutors do not provide tuition for the sake of money but provide tuition to nurture a child academically as well as into a better person.

    I have no experience in tutoring however I believe that even the most experienced tutor started off somewhere. I am able to relate to people, especially to young children. I am willing to share my knowledge with them and explain difficult concepts to them, using a lighthearted and humorous approach that sets them at ease and help them to understand the concepts better. I believe tuition could only be effective if the student is willing to learn and self motivated. I plan to divide my lessons into 3 parts. Part A will be theory lessons, whereby students would clarify concepts that they are not sure of with me, basically what they learn in school but still have doubts about. Part B will be more about practical work, going through the assignments that I tasked them to complete the previous l

      For Mathematics, I will select questions which specifically target exam questions. I will also ensure that students understand a particular chapter completely and teach them how to intelligently apply to the questions.
      (E-MATH: A1; A-MATH:A1)

      For Chinese, I will provide reading materials for the students as I believe that the most effective way to learn a language fast is to read widely. The reading skill will help my students to understand comprehension faster, and answer the questions correctly. I will teach students how to understand and use idioms in their essays to make their essays more convincing and impactful. Moreover, I will also teach my students to express their ideas effectively and confidently in words regarding a topic.

      I take a active and passive approach to this. Active in the sense, I always seek to find out the latest updates on the syllabus from friends who are active MOE school teacher. Passive in the sense when my students provide me with further insight on special ways that a subject matter is being delivered. I would then tailor the approach to fit each tutee's understanding ability.

          First, I identify my students' weaknesses. Then, I identify the conceptual errors and through thorough revision and explanation, help to clear these misunderstandings. With confidence in even the weakest topics, good grades will easily be within reach. After all, as the adage goes, one can only be as strong as your weakest link. Once this has been done, I will reinforce important concepts and do revision, as well as introduce new materials so my students will have a deeper understanding of topics before they have been taught. This approach has helped some of my students achieve top in their class and gain an interest in the subject.

          I firmly believe that learning should be made interesting and done through understanding, rather than rote learning which some tutors may, unfortunately, advocate. With my experience in vouluntary teaching, I have confidence that I can bring the best out of my students.

Therefore, I am able to start teaching as soon as the client requests for and I should be able to commit until a tuition assignment is completed.

            It is important to first get to know both the student and his/her parents and have a basic background information of them. Trust must then be build gradually to allow the parents to entrust their child with me and have confident that their child will perform. I will also find out the parents' current and eventual aim of the child's academic performance. By having a conversation with the child, it is important to then find out what type of learner the child is, whether he/she is an auditory, visual, or a kinesthetic learner and then adapt my teaching style which is optimal for the student in order for him/her to excel.

            I have a younger brother who will be taking his PSLE next year and he allows me to remain updated with the education system whenever I help him out with his school assignments. Along with external practices from assessment books and guide books, guiding him through such practices not only ensures that he remains competitive among his peers but it also keeps me well-informed of the current requirements of today's challenging education system.

                My lessons are 1.5h long, because that is the optimum length where a student can best absorb information, after which, the learning efficiency decreases. My lessons are generally on weekends, but exceptions can be negotiated. Group classes are conducted at my classroom, which is a 5 minutes walk away from Kallang MRT. Private 1-1 classes are also available.

                Parents: Constant feedback about the child's progress and working in hand with the parents to further help the child, especially in helping with the child stay motivated and disciplined to do his revision. Most students are smart! But they just need the little extra help from us to excel in their studies.

                Students: Understand their worries/concerns/fears and thinking about things from their point of view and design a method to best deliver the content across and enable them to also RETAIN the content, such that they do not need to do excessive re-revision, which can be time consuming.

                  Tuition/Teaching Experience
                  I have always loved maths and I find it a very enriching and gratifying experience to teach others the way and the understanding required to solve questions.I have taught to maths my friend's siblings and my cousins and my weaker classmates before their exams and also clarified their doubts when required.They always urged me to pursue math as a specialisation and also be a mathematician! As much as I know how my mind works, I like seeing it in another perspective when teaching students as their approach to math will be different from mine,
