Tuition Background
Part-Time
Tuition/Teaching Experience
I provide personalized care and attention towards students, which could be lacking in the usual classroom setting where the teacher to student ratio is 1:30. Each student is unique and I use different learning techniques and teaching methods best suited for the student's learning.

I have been providing tuition for the past 3 years and my students' grades improved from D7/U to A1/A.

Commitment / Other Details
My lessons are 1.5h long, because that is the optimum length where a student can best absorb information, after which, the learning efficiency decreases. My lessons are generally on weekends, but exceptions can be negotiated. Group classes are conducted at my classroom, which is a 5 minutes walk away from Kallang MRT. Private 1-1 classes are also available.
Rapport Building
Parents: Constant feedback about the child's progress and working in hand with the parents to further help the child, especially in helping with the child stay motivated and disciplined to do his revision. Most students are smart! But they just need the little extra help from us to excel in their studies.

Students: Understand their worries/concerns/fears and thinking about things from their point of view and design a method to best deliver the content across and enable them to also RETAIN the content, such that they do not need to do excessive re-revision, which can be time consuming.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
I update myself with a library of school's exam papers yearly and pick out the trend of the exam questions and answering techniques. This library of exam papers will also be made available to students when they sign up with me.
