Tuition/Teaching Experience
Being an experienced Chinese Language secondary school teacher for the past 12 years, I am familiar with the challenges faced by students nowadays in learning their mother tongue. My many years of being a 'O'/'N' level examiner and marker have provided me with a clear insight of what is required to excel in the subject. Also having been a form teacher and classroom teacher for over a decade, I am able to communicate effectively with parents and establish good rapport with students, so as to foster positive working relationships and work towards raising the confidence and academic performance of the students. As an effectively bilingual local educator, I am able to engage local students and ensure clarity in the delivery of knowledge and concepts, which many of my past students appreciated.

Commitment / Other Details
I am able to start providing tuition sessions right away, and also able to commit throughout. I am able to travel to student's place of residence to give tuition, but preferably in the East.
Rapport Building
I would normally build rapport with students by firstly clarifying with them their academic needs and challenges in the subject, starting to teach the subject at their level to boost their morale and confidence, as well as being approachable and open to any feedback from them on how I can further assist them in their learning. I am also very patient and always provide encouragement to students, so that they continue to feel good about learning the subject. As for parents, I would normally build rapport with them by giving them regular feedback on the learning progress of their child, and also by discussing with them on what they can do to inculcate the child's further interest in the subject.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
As I have just left the teaching service earlier this year 2015, I am still quite familiar with the current curriculum. However, I intend to keep myself updated with the curriculum by obtaining latest information from ex-colleagues who are still teaching in schools, by regularly checking MOE/SEAB websites, as well as by checking out relevant educational text/assessment books and materials in major bookstores.
As a Good Tutor
I believe that a good tutor should be one that understands the respective challenge(s) faced by each student, collaborates with student and parents to overcome the challenge, and endeavours to eventually raise the confidence and result of the student.

Rapport Building
I enjoy talking to students and parents to find out the learning needs of the child. Once I know the child's preferred learning styles, I will cater my lessons according to their needs. I also welcome feedback on my strengths as well as areas for improvement so that I can teach the child even better.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
I often keep in touch with current school teachers to ensure that curriculum remains relevant and updated.
As a Good Tutor
Good tutors not only teach so that their students can pass their examinations well but they also believe that students need to enjoy learning and see that their learning is relevant to their daily lives. As a good tutor, I would ensure that learning is authentic for the students and will relate to real life experiences so that they see the value in what they are learning. In this way, they will become self-directed, independent and life-long learners.

Rapport Building
I have excellent verbal communication skills and I am confident when speaking with parents.I take time to understand and address their concerns. I am bubbly, spontaneous and jovial around children and always manage to build a superb rapport with my students. I record their birthdays and buy them a small gift and I use motivational stamps\stickers when marking. I believe children thrive on encouragement.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
I have 2 boys whom I have taught all the way, for every subject. My elder boy is already in Sec 2 but the younger one is in Primary 4. Thus, I am aware of the changes in the curriculum.
As a Good Tutor
A good tutor must be dedicated,patient and punctual. It is important to know what the child's area of weakness is, before deciding which area to spend more time on.

          I think it is the key why I have helped so many of my students as I am very relatable to them. I come from an International School background, lived overseas for 10 years and have taught over 30 students from various international schools for the past 3 years. This gives me an advantage over most tutors who may not have experienced the same syllabus as I have (IGCSE/International A Levels). I believe that parents play a vital role in my students' success as well because their involvement in their kids' education ensures all-round supervision and encouragement which teens need so much especially when they are making decisions for universities and other tertiary institutes.
          Keeping Up with Curriculum
          I am subscribed to the IB/IGCSE updates on curriculum and I am always reading and ensuring I have an up-to-date database of past exam questions and notes for my students

          I find it important to motivate my students by communicating well with them and providing assistance when needed, as well as by encouraging them to pursue their interests (i.e I will find ways to engage them with the subject material).
          Keeping Up with Curriculum
          As a current student in RJC, I remain very cognizant of the O level and A level curriculm. Furthermore, as I am currently tutoring my younger brother (primary school), I am also in touch with the PSLE curriculum.
          As a Good Tutor
          As a tutor, I will respond to my students’ needs as best as I can — ofttimes, I feel that students struggle at subjects because they feel that they cannot score well and therefore lose interest. I will aim to bring back this interest by targeting key areas of the subject where the student can improve in, and by providing a positive guiding environment for my students to grow in.
