Tuition/Teaching Experience
I am a former tutor from a Tuition Centre, specializing in English, Math and Science for Upper Primary and Lower Secondary levels. For Upper Secondary levels, I specialize in Geography and Social Studies. I have experience in tutoring both local and international students.
In 2010, I tutored 6 students. The improvements in their grades are in brackets.
JC2 girl (E to B in General Paper)
Secondary 5 boy (U to C5 in Geography/Social Studies)
Secondary 4 girl (E8 to A1 in Geography/Social Studies)
Secondary 2 boy (F9 to C6 in Math and C6 to B4 Science)
Secondary 1 boy (C5 to B3 in English, D7 to C5 in Math and E8 to A2 in Science)
Primary 6 boy (C to B in English and C to A Science)
Pedagogy: I believe in partnering with the students to empower them with the necessary skills to tackle questions using analysis rather than spilling out conceptual knowledge.
Progress Tracking: I will send an sms update after every lesson on the student's grasp and understanding of the subjects/topics covered.
At the start of each lesson, I will first quiz the student to gauge his grasp on the topic, and if necessary, revise the key points of the chapter. The focus would be on how to solve commonly asked questions, using a skill-based approach rather than pure memory work.
I also have extensive experience training and working with young people as a Facilitator with a Training Consultancy Firm and Trainer with an Enrichment Service Provider. I am currently volunteering with PA as a coordinator to provide free tuition to children from low income families.
