Tuition/Teaching Experience
As a native speaker I am in a good position to teach the many subtleties of English that can be required for IELTS (written debate, comprehension) or other examinations in order to enable study abroad.

I have recently completed the TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language) course with i-to-i in London and there I've given lessons to students of various countries and skill levels.

The need to emphasise each of the language disciplines (speaking, reading, writing and listening) within each lesson in order to maximise the learning efficiency of each pupil is key for me.
My lesson plans would usually be a PPP format (Present - Practice - Production), this ensures a smooth transition in to drilling, practice and free production once a complete understanding has been observed.

    Tuition/Teaching Experience
    I have been tutoring Secondary and Junior College students for the past five years since my graduation from National Junior College. The bulk of my tutoring experience goes to teaching JC 1 and 2 H2 Economics students and Secondary 2 and 3 English Language and Literature students. I have a structured approach to tutoring that is exam and assessment-oriented. I am clear and structured in explanations, all lessons are accompanied by personalized notes that are crafted to simplify complicated concepts so as to assist tutees in the understanding and application of academic knowledge.Most of my students have achieved A and a few getting B for Economics at the A levels after attending my classes.They initially approached me scoring Us and Ss in their school promotional examinations

      By giving them incentives like breaks in between lesson. In addition to break down a topic into smaller sub-topics so its easier for the child to absorb.

      I would also use multimedia elements like videos to get the child interested in the subject and ask them where they want to go in the future (poly/jc) and what course they are interested to study in the future etc and share my experience with them.

      As for parents, I would talk to them to find out more about their child, their strength and weakness and how fast the child would absorb concepts etc and regularly report the child progress to the parents and find out if the child has improve in their test/exam result etc.

        Rapport Building
        I believe that students need a tutor that understands them. They want a tutor that they can talk to as a friend not as a teacher whom they have been used to seeing in their school. Students wants a tutor that are able to make each lesson interesting and a good motivator for themselves. I have taught students that requires special attention and manage to establish a strong bond with them. My patience and ability to build a bond with the students shall allow me to help my students both in their studies and character wise.
        Keeping Up with Curriculum
        I am constantly involved with subjects that I am teaching such as Maths and Science. As I am currently pursuing a degree in Mathematics, I am constantly involved with A-Maths and E-Maths questions such as differentiation,integration or algebra questions. I understand the syllabus well especially for secondary school Mathematics. Topics such as mensuration, graphs, simple algebra, map scaling, etc for E-Maths, and differentiation, integration, integration, etc for A-Maths has been a constant throughout my tutoring experience and education( from sec school to polytechnic to university).
        As a Good Tutor
        I believe that being a good tutor has to be someone that is well discipline. Someone who is a well discipline tutor is someone that will be punctual, not constantly changing tuition times and focused on his role(not constantly using his phone or gadgets during lesson). A good tutor also has to be someone that has passion for teaching and help the student as much as possible.He should also not judge a student ability and demoralize the student. A good tutor must be patient, gentle with the student but also firm at the appropriate situation.

          i have taught a student and she improved from average grades to being top in class, because she was willing to learn and accept the experience that i shared with her. After studying for 12 years its safe to say that one is a master at studying. This comprehensive experience can be passed down if the student is willing to learn.

            I am currently teaching 2 students: 1 JC1 (chem and econs) and a sec3 in (chem and physics) for around a year.
            My style of tutoring will be to point out to the students the key concepts at they have to take note of. Also I'll use mindmaps so that students will have a better understanding and linking chapters up to make sure students see the broader picture behind every subjects. I'll also make sure that they are able to at least answer every question in the Ten Year Series so they can cope with the national examinations with ease.
            Apart from that, I encourage students to ask me questions when in doubt and I will also suggest the way that they can go about studying the subjects effectively and efficiently based on my own experiences.

              For my strong points and qualities, I am meticulous in nature and will ensure that I cover every aspect of my student's requested subject, doing my best not to overlook any detail. I promise I will do my best to address every single one of my student's problems and weaknesses, so that he/she can be a better learner and student, and ultimately perform better in exams. Secondly, I am a logical thinker and will teach my student to not only absorb content in a clear and reasoned manner, but also to think systematically when dealing with questions. Thirdly, I am reasonable and friendly so I will do my best to get along with my student and build a cordial relationship with him/her, which is important as the student-teacher relationship greatly affects how much the student can learn.

                  Rapport Building
                  I can build rapport with kids, my interest is in coaching kids who have weaker foundation.
                  Through understanding, I will made adjustments through their learning capability then try to go through the syllabus crafted to their needs.
                  I am approachable and have no qualms about kids approaching me for help through emails, messages.

                  I believed in giving practices and drilling of concepts to build up foundation and has produced notable results improvements in grades.
                  Keeping Up with Curriculum
                  Updated through the curriculum through keeping in track with MOE website and syllabus.
                  Feedback from students are important too.
                  Having teaching friends are also a vital tool to my updates.
                  As a Good Tutor
                  To put in your best effort and needs to coach students.
                  Good tutors do not judge but acknowledge that each other have different potentials and learning method, to stretch their learning ability and not allow them to be complacent at their current standard.
                  This is my interest, hence i'm doing it as a part-time, hoping to help one more individual in life.
