Tuition/Teaching Experience
I have about 7 years of teaching experience in tuition. I mainly teach primary and secondary school students. Subjects include Science (Biology, Chemistry, Physics), Mathematics and Chinese. I believe in grasping the main concept in learning and summarizing the main points. I focus on understanding rather than pure memorizing. I will be able to capture the style of learning of different students and customize different methods of teaching for them. I would say I am a very patient and dedicated tutor who is determined to help my students achieve better results. I have taught several students ranging from local to international school kids, and they have all shown significant improvement in their results (eg from a fail to A).

Commitment / Other Details
I am able to start ASAP! Currently, my available timings are Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Saturdays from 530pm onwards. Sundays whole day. I will be able to commit to a tuition assignment for the whole of next year.
Rapport Building
I believe the most important aspect when building rapport is communications. Normally, I will talk to the students and parents with an open mind and treat them truthfully. I believe that when I open my heart to someone, they will reciprocate. In terms of tuition, I will try my best to understand the concerns of the student and customize a set of teaching techniques that suits him/her best.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
I will visit Popular regularly to research on the latest syllabus and aseesment books available. Besides that, examination papers from different schools can also be found online. I will also read the news everyday to keep myself updated on any changes to the school policies and curriculum.
As a Good Tutor
The most important quality is patience. As a tutor, I have encountered students of all characters, from those that are very obedient to those who simply show no interest in studies. However, if I show genuine care and concern to the student, they will eventually show more interest in learning. Besides that, a tutor should be dedicated and responsible. I have the added advantage of being bilingual. I believe that a good tutor should be able to grasp the main concept in learning and summarize the main points. I focus on understanding rather than pure memorizing. A good tutor should also be able to capture the style of learning of different students and customize different methods of teaching for them.

          As a Good Tutor
          I think it is important to know the curriculum well, other than that, it is important to know the weakness of the students and know which study method is more useful for them. Being able to allow them to understand the idea behind each concepts is essential as it allows the student to be able to apply those concepts. For language, I would try to make it as interesting and engaging for them as it will be easier for students to learn if they find the subject interesting.

              Music (Piano Lessons) I am now currently teaching in a music school, with a total of 10 students, and 19 students privately. I've been teaching piano for the past 5 years, and had students who took the ABRSM exams recently during the March period(2014), and scoring "Merit" for their practical and theory exams respectively as compared to before, where they had only achieved a "Pass" in their exams in the past. I also had students who performed for recitals and achieved the top 3 best players in the category. I also love working with children and appreciate the efforts that they had placed on.

              I would usually take into account the speed of the child's processing and learning abilities. At times, I would incorporate games and reward students base on their efforts. I love to work with children and would ensure that they enjoy the lessons every week.

              For parents, I would update them about the progress of the child and consult them if they have any special requests.
              Keeping Up with Curriculum
              Since i am still teaching in a music school, i am very updated with the curriculum. I would also often refer to the ABRSM syllabus to counter-check.
