Tuition Background

Tuition/Teaching Experience
I used to teach primary school levels, they are fun loving children. Many of them nowadays at such young age already have their own set of thinking, they would not be as attentive in tuition session. That's where the tutoring experience helps to play a part, having the experiences in different kinds of children be it races or ages, I am confident that I would be able to impart some knowledge into them. Through slowly nurturing them, and with perseverance, I am sure that the children would be able to get a better grades in the future and clear of their goals in life.

Commitment / Other Details
I am able to start anytime as long as there is assignment assigned to me. For the availability, I am open to negotiation with the parents and children, flexibility is what makes life easy. For the location wise, I would try to only apply those I am capable to reach on time, as I believe punctuality is a good example I should set for the children.
Rapport Building
Communication is necessary, a proper self-introduction to the parents and children during the first meet-up is important. It sets the first impression which always last. Subsequently, discussion with parents about the progression of their children would always be initiated by me as the common goal we have is always the grades of their children. Thus, coming up with the best way to approach their children would be advisable to discuss with the parents as I feel that they should be the one who understand their children the best.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
Listening from both the parents and children may seemed enough, however, my practices would be to go extra mile to seek assistance from the children's respective school teachers. In order to work out the best approach for each individual child to improve not only their grades, but as a whole, their well-being.
As a Good Tutor
Communication, Patience and Understanding, are important traits not only as a good tutors, I felt strongly that in general people should have these characteristics, and they would be a better person to work with in life.
