Tuition/Teaching Experience
I have tutored my cousin as well as my younger brother before, both studying in secondary 4 and secondary 3 respectively. I was coaching them in their mathematics as this is my best subject and have most confidence in teaching it. If they do not understand my explanation i will thus try to find another way of explaining it till they understand me.
I am currently in the national service now. I would and could commit to weekend classes the most and timings after i book out from camp.
Rapport Building
I would inform the parents on how well the student is doing whenever i can. And would also have them to help make sure that the student will do their homework and revise when they are free. With the student, i will be patient with them and will praise the student whenever they do it right and will not say anything to bring their morale down. I can also share my past experience on how i study and tips to the student and parents.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
As i have a brother in secondary 3 now i could easily get notes and tips from him about the change in curriculum. I also have friends giving tuition and hence keeping up to date would not be a big problem to me.
As a Good Tutor
To be a good tutor, we have to set good examples to the students. One most important point to be one is to keep them motivated and to boost their confidence int heir studies. As when i was younger i think that motivation and the confidence is most important to us. Tips on examinations would help in being a good tutor, examples like time keeping and exam pointers would be very helpful and resourceful to the students too.
