Tuition/Teaching Experience: My Portfolio/Experience.
I have been tutoring for more than 10 years since my undergraduate and Master degree days in NUS, specializing mainly in mathematics.

I believe the key to achieving good grades is understanding and having a solid foundation. Hence, I always train my students to pen down summary notes after learning each topic.

Teaching Techniques.
Other than practicing past year papers, my teaching techniques helps students to understand key Mathematics concepts and remember formula more effectively using basic Principle of Memory/ Mind Mapping. To enhance my students learning, I also complement my teaching with audio-visual aids via selected Internet videos. These techniques are very well-received by my students.

Commitment / Other Details: I am a Full-time Singaporean Tutor who specializes in Maths tuition. I hold a Bachelors Degree (Honors) from NUS and a Masters Degree under a scholarship awarded by NUS.
