Rapport Building
I strongly believe in the importance of getting to know my students better, both in terms of their interests and also their learning habits (including strengths and weaknesses), and therefore i will give my students several forms to fill in after the first session. Thereafter, i will devise a suitable learning system for my student, and it will be presented to both the student and the parent by the end of the first month of tuition. I will also prepare a monthly lesson plan for my student, and regular feedback will also be given to my students, to let them know of the progress they have made. Students also have the opportunity to give me regular feedbacks, to let me know how i can improve, to make learning more efficient and effective.

I also strongly believe in the importance of hard work, and i will work with my students to tackle their weaknesses. Besides helping them with their studies, i will also observe their learning attitudes, and coach them to become more efficient and effective in their learning styles.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
I specialise in GP (A levels), History (Sec 1- JC2), Social Studies (Sec 3/4) and English (Pri 5 to Sec 4). I have my own materials, and i am also in charge of curriculum planning for secondary level English at a tuition centre near Choa Chu Kang MRT.
As a Good Tutor
From 2009-2015, i taught students from secondary 2 to JC2. I have also taught group tuition in 2010. I specialise in GP, social studies, history, english and combined humanities. Most of my students have made significant improvements in terms of their grades and learning attitude. Most of my students have managed to attain at least a B (for A levels) or B3 for their exams.

I have my own notes, worksheets and teaching materials.
