Tuition/Teaching Experience
I am a graduate from Ngee Ann Polytechnic with a diploma in Biomedical Science. Unfortunately, I do not have any experience teaching subjects prior to this registration. I do have experience in guiding and teaching my juniors in secondary school and polytechnic the skills related to my CCA. It's from these experiences where I realized how much I enjoy guiding and sharing knowledge with people and therefore I am willing to use this as a platform to tutor students and gain more experience if given the opportunity.

Commitment / Other Details
I am able to start tutoring immediately.
I will be enlisting on 4 November for National Service, thus I will only be able to commit till then. I understand that it may be difficult as my commitment period is rather short, but I am willing to commit completely to the student given the limited time I have.

As a Good Tutor
Although I do not have any experience, I've always found myself watching teachers while they are carrying out their lessons. I feel that as a good tutor/teacher I have to understand the student better before I am able to meet the needs to help them improve. I understand that everyone is different and one style of teaching may not suit a certain student. I have had a tutor before who tutored me Mandarin since I was K2 and she taught me many life lessons and guided me throughout the years. Thus, I feel a good tutor is also about guiding students in life other than teaching the subject.
