Tuition/Teaching Experience
I have about 5 years' private tutoring experience, teaching Maths (Sec & Pri), science (pri) and Chinese (Sec & Pri).
I was once a full time tutor and curriculum writer at a top tuition centre.
I have IP Maths curriculum planning experience due to an internship with an IP Sec School.
All my students like my fun, friendly and systematic way of teaching.
The grateful notes that my students wrote to me on cards and on scraps of paper are fool-proof testimonials.
I have a set of useful heuristics for primary math problem sums.
My science lessons are equipped with comprehensive contents and exciting science experiments.
I always encourage my students that no matter what your grades used to be, as long as you are diligent to study and practise, you would definitely improve.

Assignments Taken
  • Secondary 5 E.Math tuition - Jun 12
Small group tuition
  • Primary 6 Mathematics-Pri 4 - 6 Problem Sums (Heuristics & various techniques) & Basics
    Course Description:
    Besides building up the students' foundation for each topic, I would place a greater emphasis on the various heuristics and problem solving techniques for different types of problem sums.
    Worksheets that I use would have math problems organised according to question types and techniques used.
    Students could have the chance to invent their own questions according to the different types of questions and techniques.
    Students could also learn from one another in team/pair work.
    The purpose is to create a fun, friendly and exciting learning environment for these "math detectives" to understand math and thus build their confidence in tackling the math problems. :-D

    • Primary 6 Science-Pri 5 - 6 Science
      Course Description:
      I focus on helping the student to understand the contents and concepts of each topic well.
      I would focus on how to answer Section B questions the correct way, and the smart techniques to tackle the tricky MCQ questions.
      Before exams, I always round up each topic by drawing up mind maps with the students.
      Exciting science experiments using everyday items to be conducted too! Wow!
