Tuition/Teaching Experience
To be honest, I barely have any formal experience except for a few handful that i helped to tutor occasionally only when they seek for help. However, I am currently guiding my younger brother through his primary school education and would appreciate it if I am given a chance to extend greater guidance to those required.

Commitment / Other Details
I'm currently doing my degree with the University of London, under Singapore Institute of Management (SIM). My school ends by 3pm on most days and my afternoons are usually left free as I do not have any other commitments currently. Therefore, I am able to start teaching as soon as the client requests for and I should be able to commit until a tuition assignment is completed.
Rapport Building
It is important to first get to know both the student and his/her parents and have a basic background information of them. Trust must then be build gradually to allow the parents to entrust their child with me and have confident that their child will perform. I will also find out the parents' current and eventual aim of the child's academic performance. By having a conversation with the child, it is important to then find out what type of learner the child is, whether he/she is an auditory, visual, or a kinesthetic learner and then adapt my teaching style which is optimal for the student in order for him/her to excel.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
I have a younger brother who will be taking his PSLE next year and he allows me to remain updated with the education system whenever I help him out with his school assignments. Along with external practices from assessment books and guide books, guiding him through such practices not only ensures that he remains competitive among his peers but it also keeps me well-informed of the current requirements of today's challenging education system.
