I GRADUATED FROM Hwa Chong Institution in 2013, under the prestigious Humanities Programme (HP).
I WAS AWARDED the Overall Top Student in the Arts Stream, as well as Top Student in H2 Literature, H2 Economics, and H3 Economics.
I AM ALSO THE AUTHOR of TheAlevelGuide Notes for JC Students (http://thealevelguide.wordpress.com). They have been very well-received by students, as they are up-to-date and exam-focused. Do take a look!
I TAUGHT General Paper in a renowned tuition centre, where I received great feedback from the students. My own private students have also improved remarkably, with my Sec 4 Language Arts student achieving an A1 (94 marks in EOY paper) in just a short span of two months. My JC 1 Economics student also improved to a B grade (Prelims) within two months.
Upper secondary level - Geography Language Arts Literature
Junior college level - Economics General Paper Geography Literature
International Baccalaureate - Economics Language Arts
Commitment / Other Details
I am able to teach on WEEKDAY EVENINGS and WEEKENDS, beginning in Jan 2016.
My rates start at $45/hour for JC students, depending on distance. If you are able to form a small group of 2-3 students, I am willing to offer a rate of $35/hour.
Lessons have a minimum duration of 2 hours per week, in order to fully cover content and exam skills without rushing for time.
I will be heading to the University of Cambridge to study Economics.
Rapport Building
As a private tutor, I am able to tailor my teaching to the needs of each and every student, as compared to teachers in tuition centres. As such, I am able to identify with the different learning styles adopted by each student, and help them understand concepts more easily.
Having been a student myself, I understand their difficulties and concerns, and will be able to relate to them better.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
No one understands the syllabus better than a student who has just undergone the A-Levels and excelled at it. Not only have I mastered the content, but I also understand the exam strategies needed to score in the A-Levels. I know what the examiners are looking for, and I will impart these strategies to my students.
I have also created my own notes, which students have found to be very up-to-date, relevant, and exam-focused. You may take a look at them here: http://thealevelguide.wordpress.com
As a Good Tutor
I am dedicated to helping my students score well in their exams. More importantly, I truly enjoy the subjects that I teach, and am therefore willing to answer any questions that they have, and never give up until they grasp the relevant concepts.
I have also been accepted to study Economics at the University of Cambridge, one of the top universities in the world. As such, I will be able to help my students with their university applications as well.
Having been both a student and a teacher, I am confident that I understand the exam system through and through, and this will be invaluable to any student hoping to excel in the A-Levels.
