Tuition/Teaching Experience
Passionate for chemistry and would like to instill the same passion in all my students. Very patient teacher; slow students will not be an issue as I was struggling once too. However, requires students to be diligent and hardworking.
Makes use of a variety of real world analogies and ICT-enabled pedagogies to help students understand abstract concepts.
I do not believe in merely teaching the student. I believe in helping them learn.
Teaching presupposes the role as an all-knowing seer and employs the one way transfer of information.
Learning ensures that students remain engaged and participates actively in questioning and exploring concepts for maximum effectiveness.
We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them. - Albert Einstein
