Tutoring Subjects

Commitment / Other Details: I am able to commit to a student until he/she graduates from his/her respective course. I have many students whom I taught from Secondary 1 to Seconday 4/5. One IB student has been with me for 5 yrs.

Rapport Building: My past students have shown great improvement, some from Cs or Bs and eventually achieving As in their respective mathematics subjects.
I am a patient and dedicated teacher who believes a student requires exposure to various mathematics questions in order to do well so lots of practise will be provided during my class I also provide clear explanations to mathematical concepts so that students can understand instead of memorising. I am also flexible in my timings, so if a student has any last minute appointments, I usually will try my best to accomodate to his/her timings. In my professional career I have a Bachelor of Vet Science HonsIIA degree and I am an experienced veterinarian but I am currently taking a break to teach full time. I am on the Deans list for two semesters in 2011 and 2012 and won an award for excellence for veterinary pharmacology in 2013.

Keeping Up with Curriculum: To keep up with the curriculum, I usually go online to extract the latest maths questions and come up with good summarised materials so that I can teach more effectively and help my students understand complicated maths questions better. I am also constantly on the look out for courses which I can attend to improve my teaching methods. One of the courses I am looking to attend is how to teach higher order maths to dyslexic and dyscalculia students or special needs students. From there, I can better understand their struggles and also adapt the teaching methods to help my weaker students.

As a Good Tutor: I think the basic qualities of a good tutor is how approachable he/she is. I feel strongly that a good tutor should be non judgemental and help all students to achieve to the best of their ability. A good tutor should also be open minded and make learning maths enjoyable.
