Tuition Background

Tuition/Teaching Experience
I specialise in Math tuition for primary and secondary level, but I am also able to tutor english, science and chinese for primary level.

I am dedicated to seeing that the student excel in the subjects that I guide them on, going the extra mile for them.

I have worked with children since I was thirteen, serving in the children ministry. I also have experience handling classroom as I also conduct enrichment lessons in schools. I have two years experience teaching in MPM math tuition agency and 1 and a half year experience doing private tuition.

I believe that students did not fail to learn, but that teachers have failed to teach. With patience and with unique teaching methods, i can help students to understand their subjects.

As a Good Tutor
As a good tutor, I feel that one has to understand what the student is thinking to effectively teach and train them to think in another way which is the correct way.

A tutor needs to be patient, and instead of using a 'higher than thou' attitude, they should lower themselves and stand in the shoes to understand how students think. Only in that light, will they be able to effectively help the students.
