Tuition/Teaching Experience
I have tutored a neighbour in primary school level. In addition, I have been constantly tutoring my younger brother too. I enjoy tutoring because it gives me a sense of satisfaction when I can help students with their understanding and build up their problem solving skills. I am patient when explaining concepts, and find ways to make it easier for students to understand concepts. I am currently pursuing a Psychology degree in NTU, and I am working with people from MINDS with special needs for my CCA. T

I would prefer one to one tuition, because through that I can tailor my explanations to suit the needs of the student. I will be able to work for longer hours during the holidays (May-August), but less hours during non-holiday period.

As a Good Tutor
To me, a tutor should be able to help a student clear their doubts and learn what they have missed out in school. On top of that, a good tutor need to be able to stand in the shoes of the student, and take the point of view of them to help them excel better academically. A good tutor must also be patient with the students, and find ways to help the student better understand concepts.

        I enjoy giving tuitions as I feel that it empowers people to do well academically to have more opportunities in their lives.

            Tuition/Teaching Experience
            I taught at the University Level as a Teaching Assistant for 2 years for Introduction to Micro and Macro Economics classes. I have also tutored relatives on an ad hoc basis in Singapore. They usually find that my real life experiences help to make concepts come alive for them.

            Additionally, I also represented Indiana University in the Nation wide central banking case competition and was ranked 2nd overall in Indiana and Michigan in 2005.

            Previously, I worked as an Investment Banker in Beijing for 3 years, worked one of the International credit rating agencies for 1 year and as a proprietary trader for 3 years. I believe that I can bring many unique case studies to the classroom and help the student understand the subject I love.

            Commitment / Other Details
            I am flexible with my evenings and late afternoons and am able to commit to an assignment if we both feel that I am able to help the student.

            I typically do not charge for the first session because I believe it is necessary for both the tutor and student to feel comfortable about the assignment before a commitment is made.
            Rapport Building
            I like to start by asking the student what concepts they are most interested in. If the student is weak, I would suggest the student focus on concepts that are easier to understand and leave the more tricky and contentious areas for later.

            This I believe is a good approach for weaker students because even though I had always been a strong Economics student, there are topics that I did not fully understand until recently, so I would not expect every 18 year old student to be able to understand the entire syllabus.

            For students who have a genuine interest in the subject, I would be able to provide them with the current articles of interest from the various Investment Banks to help them prepare for their essays and case studies.

            I find that case studies on current affairs tend to be a little more interesting than examples that happened 10 years ago because the student can then track their ideas and hypothesis to see if they match what happens next.
            Keeping Up with Curriculum
            I have tutored some of my relatives in the past few years and have a reasonable understanding on the requirements of the current curriculum.
            As a Good Tutor
            I believe a good tutor needs to genuinely like the subject he is teaching. The interest and passion shown during the explanation will be obvious and help the student become interested in the material.

                    Commitment / Other Details
                    I am able to start immediately, however I am only able to commit on these dates and timings:

                    Fridays: 8-10pm
                    Saturdays: 2pm-8pm
                    Each assignment can be between (1hour -2 hours)
                    Rapport Building
                    With my vibrant, cheerful, approachable and enthusiastic personality, I am able to click with students fairly well.

                    I do believe in a REWARD system for good and commendable work - to motivate and boost students' confidence. In addition, if given the permission, I do give fellow parents a fortnightly follow-up call on their child's progress to ensure that parents are kept informed at all times. This is also a good way to highlight any misbehaviours, observations that may need attention.
                    Keeping Up with Curriculum
                    I do have ex teachers as friends and we do meet up to discuss and meet up with each other to update on the latest syllabus change, etc.

                    In addition, I do into the MOE website to look out for latest implementations, changes to the education system

                      I have experience in teaching mathematics to secondary school students. Also, I helped my JC friends a lot in their understanding of the concepts and ideas in Maths, Physics, Chemistry and Economics. I'm proficient and effective in explaining these concepts to those that need my help.
