Commitment / Other Details
I can start anytime the student is ready, as long as there is a few days advanced notice upon confirmation of schedule and fees.
Rapport Building
During lessons, it is impossible to be teaching all the time, and neither is it possible for the student to be focused on studying all the time. For that reason, I believe it is important to occasionally have some conversation with the student that is beyond the textbooks and test papers. Referencing real life examples is important in piquing the student's interest, and so is finding out more about the student and his/her future plans. For that, I would also go through goals setting to ensure the student reflect on his final objective. Parents are of course most concerned about their child, and for that reason, I will regularly drop a text to the parent updating on the student's performance during lesson. I genuinely hope that students will enjoy my lessons, and that my lessons will make them more interested in the subject, and at the same time parents can be at ease, knowing that their child are making progress.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
I will visit SEAB website to get a glimpse of the syllabus. Most of time this is not needed, however, as I have graduated from A levels in recent years and the curriculum has not changed much since then.
As a Good Tutor
Fundamentally, a tutor exist for the sake of improving grades. This involves practice and supervision, and need qualities such as patience and communication abilities. However, in some cases there the student is more competent, I believe a good tutor should look beyond just grades and assist his students to reach a deeper understanding. Bottom line is, apart from basic tutoring qualities like patience and knowledge, a tutor also need to be adaptable to fit the student.
