Tuition/Teaching Experience
I have 2yrs of teaching experience in UK teaching all levels up to O'Level English. After teaching in UK I can see the difference and weak points of Singapore students and where they go wrong, there are a few common errors i have noticed among a large number of students.

I have 4yrs of full-time tutoring experience, i also taught for 1.5yrs in a primary school in Tampines.

After giving tuition to a P5 boy who was constantly failing English, his grades improved and he managed to pass his PSLE examination when everyone thought he would fail.

I also taught a sec 3 girl from Paya Lebar secondary school, whose grades were never above D after a few months she started getting C's and for O'level she achieved an A2 grade.
You will not be disappointed!
