Rapport Building
I am a very exprienced primary school teacher and have seen many children of varied characters. I believe in building trust, support and understanding between teacher and student. A good teacher-student relationship is one of the factor for effective teaching and learning. I will also update the parents on the child's progress, and provide resources and guidance whenever necessary.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
I am a current MOE teacher so I am kept up to date.
As a Good Tutor
I feel that understanding the needs of my students is important. It helps me to identify the problem areas so that I can rectify them as soon as possible. Based on my experience, through observation and discussions with my students, I am able to quickly identify their learning style so as to cater to their needs and deliver the lessons effectively.

          Rapport Building
          It is definitely every tutor's goal to see improvements made by our students. However, before that can happen, I would use the first few lessons to understand my student better such as his/ her strong and weak point and their perception on the subject that I am teaching. This way, I am then able to adjust my teaching accordingly and hence better deliver my lesson. Instead of continuously pointing out my student's weak point and reprimanding them, I chose to use a strength-based approach in my teaching so that my student will be motivated and willing to work towards their goal. As for parents, I will update them on child's progress after every lesson and guide them on how they can help their child in their studies. Building rapport can only be done when there are a certain level of trust between the parents, child and tutor. Hence I will make the effort to dress up appropriately and turn up early for lesson and also to be polite and respectful when speaking to them. I am also open to receiving feedbacks as I see these as an opportunity for me to improve my teaching skills in the future.
          Keeping Up with Curriculum
          As I am also working for a tuition centre, it will be easy for me to be updated with the curriculum such as exam weeks and also the syllabus. For my lesson, I will prepare my own checklist and will frequently check in with student on the topics taught in school so that it will be easier for me to pace my teaching.
          As a Good Tutor
          I think basic qualities of tutors are really being patient, respectful and understanding. Every child have their own strengths and weaknesses thus I choose to use strength based approach during my teaching as a way to motivate my student to love math. Being patient with a child is important as it is a way to form connection with them. While being patient, the child will be more at ease during class and able to view math as a fun subject instead of one that is boring.

          As for understanding, it is important to know the child better and the amount of stress and workload he/ she is able to cope with. A good tutor must not be one that give the child tons of work to do as they also have other tuition or CCAs or school homework that needs to be completed. Therefore, it is key to check in with the child how much work he/ she is able to do. We should always allow the child to voice out and state the amount of work, tutor will then attempt to negotiate if she thinks that more homework should be given to the child. This allows the child to know that he/ she have the autonomy and also understand that their decision are being respected by their tutor.
