Commitment / Other Details
Able to commit till March 2013, available Mon-Fri 10am-11pm, able to go to student's home for tutoring session.
Rapport Building
Prior to the session, i normally start with a phone call to the student and/or the parents to get basic information about the student and what he requires out of the sessions. During the first lesson, I will do some self-introduction and also ask questions both related and non-related to the session to get to know more about the student.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
I seek information from friends who are still studying about the latest books they are using for their course and get the updated syllabus and learning objectives for the various course.
As a Good Tutor
The basic requirement to be a good tutor is someone who has high level of head knowledge in the required field and also the ability to impart that knowledge to others, meaning to have strong teaching skill. But more importantly, a good tutor must be able to be sensitive to student's needs and tweak (not change) his teaching style according to their needs. He must also be able to instil the importance of consistent efforts in studying and inspire his students to have discipline in following their study schedule, because ultimately it takes consistent efforts to do well in exams.
