      Rapport Building
      I usually treat the student like an adult as i mostly deal with more mature students (Teens). This help to create a very comfortable environment for the student to open up and ask questions in the event that he has trouble with the syllabus in school.

      Meeting up the parents occasionally to brief them on the progress of the child is indeed important. This way, parents will have a better sense of comfort level in knowing that the tutor knows what he/she is doing.
      Keeping Up with Curriculum
      I usually read a lot and keep up with the news often to constantly remain updated. I will also cross check with the students on what has been taught in school and what hasn't so that we can go ahead of class. Often, I will visit the MOE website to keep abreast with news/changes in the Singapore education system / curriculum.
      As a Good Tutor
      Patience is an important aspect of all good tutors, especially in going the extra mile to help the student. At the same time, a tutor has to be firm in ensuring that tuition homework is done on time prior to the next tuition lesson so as to allow good progress.

          Students:
          As a start, try not to talk too much about school work because they switch off immediately when you talk about it. Might want to start with their interest, hobbies etc. Slowly link to the nature of the subject by relating to real world context.

          Celebrate their bdays, youth days by giving them a simple gift etc.

          Parents:
          Important to find out what are their expectations and strike a mutual understanding. Set standards and show the work done during the tuition class as well as monitor the student's progress and updating them the student's developments.
          Keeping Up with Curriculum
          As a school teacher i am always updated with the current curriculum and syllabus.

                I have given tuition to a Primary 3 students in Mathematics for 3 months. Her grades improved from a C to a B. In addition, I have given years of "tutoring" to my classmates and friends when they needed help in their subject such as Mathematics.

                They all understood my explanation very clearly as they commented that I was able to identify very specifically on the exact part on which they do not understand.

                I have been continuously scoring A for my Mathematics since Primary school until now even in Polytechnic, I am still scoring A for my maths-related modules such as Economics, Accounting and Business Statistics.

                Rapport Building
                I normally would try to build a relationship with my student and try to understand what is my student likes and dislikes in that particular subject. No amount of tutoring would help if a student is not interested and willing to put in effort to improve themselves on the subject.

                As such, I would always make it a point to encourage my student to put in more effort in the subject by presenting them with simple rewards such as sweets when they progressing well and always providing word of encouragements at all times to know that they are able to achieve more than what they think they can do.

                For the parents, I would always update them regularly on their child progress on the subject and would try to advice them, if possible in some of the various ways they can also help out in helping their child to achieve better academic results.
                Keeping Up with Curriculum
                I have friends taking O levels and I do give them occasional tutoring in helping them out. Base on the tutoring session, I would be able to refresh myself regularly with the things I teach them .
                As a Good Tutor
                There is no such thing as an established formula where a tutor would follow in teaching to ensure that student would get an A. Every individuals has different learning paces and see things/absorbed them in differently. As such, a good tutor would be one who is able to identify the best way to teach to these student in a way which they would be able to understand in the easiest and fastest manner.

                    I am an easy going person. Time slots can be rearranged as and when the student needs. I will come up with questions for the student to do and also buy assessment books that are beneficial for the students because different students have different standards. To me, getting good results is important, but the process of working hard and putting in effort is more important because it is a useful skill in the future.

                    As a Good Tutor
                    To become a good tutor, one has to know how a student feels. Tutors are there to guide the students. Tutors who spoon feed their students are not good tutors. Good tutors make the student think beyond the horizons. Yes, tutors are here to earn pocket money but still ensuring that the student will learn is still the top priority. I personally accept low rates. I am more than willing to accept students who don't come from good family backgrounds.
                    Accept Below Average Rate?
                    Yes, willing to accept below average rate
