Tuition/Teaching Experience
Haven been tutoring since Secondary 4 with various levels of success.

Worked as a relief educator in East View Secondary School and was tasked to cover teachers on long-term leaving, teaching subjects to classes of more than 30 students at a time. I think this has allowed me to handle different kind of students as well as be confident in my teaching abilities.

Have previously tutored PSLE and O-level students with improvements in grade in tutored subjects.

        I am able to start anytime and will follow through the student until he finish his studies. I can give the promise because I will only have at most 2 students (limit that I set personally) as I feel it is my responsibility the moment I agreed to take up the tuition assignment. I will also not just be a part time teacher, the student can clarify their doubts any time.
        Rapport Building
        For student, I will first have to know the student personally and his/her character and how he/she learns best. I will offer any help to my best of ability to help the student in any ways possible.

        I will do my best to meet the parents' expectation and also update the parents of how their child is performing or if they are facing any obstacles or difficulties.
        Keeping Up with Curriculum
        I will first find out how the teacher in the school teaches and then plan out how I will go about teaching so as not to confuse the student.
        As a Good Tutor
        My goal as a tutor is not just to improve the student's academic results but also to help them to find their goal and start with the end in mind!

        Constant encouragement and always focus on the positive!

            I have approximately 5 years of teaching experience in giving private tuition. During my secondary school days, I begin giving tuition to a P5 student until his PSLE, teaching him Mathematics and Science. From a student who has been failing both subjects, he had shown great improvement in his studies and managed to enter the express stream in secondary school. In my years of study in the Polytechnic, I have taught 2 secondary school students E Maths, A Maths, as well as Chemistry. Both students have shown great improvements in the studies too, with the girl even attaining an A1 for both her E Mathematics and A Mathematics results. I am confident in helping your child attain his/her desired results by teaching them the right studying methods and providing them with useful exam tips.

              I have 3 years of teaching experience in Primary Schools and 32 year of teaching experience in Secondary Schools teaching Mathematics. I have just resigned from teaching and would like to give tuition to students. I still have the love of teaching but in a normal school situation, there is too much work and stress for us to have work-life balance. I am committed to see that my students do well and is willing to go the extra mile like giving them extra remedial lessons.

              I can start now and until end of the year or beyond.
              Rapport Building
              I think it is very important to build good rapport with the students and their parents. I have to be patient and help them to overcome any problems in studying. I have to explain concepts to the students clearly and if they still do not understand, I have to try different pedagogy. I have to talk to parents and get to know them and their children well in order to help the students more effectively.
              Keeping Up with Curriculum
              The MOE curriculum are always changing so I have to keep up with the new syllabus by reading up books on the latest curriculum, by checking with my ex-colleagues who are still teaching in the school or by checking on the internet.
              As a Good Tutor
              A good tutor basically has to be patient, committed and teach the concepts clearly, to make sure the students are improving or achieving good results.

                  Part-Time
                  Tuition/Teaching Experience
                  I have been giving part time tuition for several years (Almost 15 years). The students that i taught mostly were below-average. This is very challenging as the improvement that they achieved greatly motivates and encourages me. I had students who did not do well during the earlier mid year exams during Sec 3 but at the end grew interest in the subject that i tutored. Eventually got distinction for their 'O' Level exams.
                  Great tutor require commitment, bonding with the student. He must create an conducive environment not just tutoring but fellow shipping. A great tutor must be able to create complex situation into a digestible easy to follow so that the students can absorb and grew interest in the subject.

                  Rapport Building
                  Rapport and bonding needs time and trust and that is the most important element. As a tutor, first and foremost we have to built trust with the student as most of the time the parents will check with the student after the tutor has left. Create friendship, understand their area of weakness, focus on their ability and guide them through and constantly reinforce them and encourage them. This will lift up their confident, self esteem and they will indirectly motivate themselves to study hard.

                  As a Good Tutor
                  Commitment, understanding the different needs of individual students. Understand their weakness, focus on their strength, encourage them and most importantly create trust and strong bonding. A good tutor should be able to turn complex topics/problem into disestablish and simple so that students can follow and slowly gain interest. Once they gain interest they will be able to motivate themselves and good result will follow.
