Commitment / Other Details
I commit long term, nurturing my students from the beginning till their graduating examinations. I am very flexible, Able to start in a short notice. Very flexible to meet student's timetable.
Rapport Building
I will take the first lesson as an assessment of student's ability and standard. Usually getting to know the timetable and the study routine, understanding what has been done so far for the student, in school and outside of. I am very approachable and relatable due to my age, students feel comfortable talking to me about problems they face. I believe in coaching a student both academically and mentally through my short but rich experince I have had, giving them valuable life lessons along the way, in hopes of guiding them to a brighter future. In terms of communication with parents, it is kept to a minimal. I will give an overview of their child's standard and potential during the first lesson and quarterly reviews. Otherwise, I strongly believe in independent learning, and is part of the qualities i wish to inculcate in my students. Of course, if there is any issue parents will be notified asap.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
At the start of every year, I will review the syllabus through MOE websites and various sources to ensure I'm up to date with the curriculum.
As a Good Tutor
Graduating with a First Class Honours in Accounting and Finance, with 9 distinctions out of 12 modules, I was awarded the Achievers Award for Excellence. I have a strong passion for teaching. This began when I offered help to teach my niece and nephew while I was studying in university. Since then, I have coached more than 50 students all improving leaps and bounds, bringing forth their greatest potential. The feeling of truly connecting with them and helping them understand concepts motivates me to go the extra mile. My strength is in Mathematics and English, also the ability to tailor the lesson to cater to the individual students. I believe in making an impact on the students' lives, being the hand that reaches out to them when they are lost and coaching them back on the right path always spurs me on. At the end of the day, I want to believe I have made a difference in their lives.
