Tuition/Teaching Experience
English is something I have always had a natural affinity for, and my strength lies in not simply being good at the subject, or being able to teach, but also being able to identify the level each student is at and tailor a comprehensive plan for them, be it making the jump from fail to pass, or average to excellent.

I have tutored a foreign student (in English) seeking enrollment into secondary schools, and also helped my friends with Junior College level General Paper. While many people say that language is something that cannot be tutored, I strongly believe that with the right tools, focus and patient mentoring, any student will be able to benefit from tuition.
Apart from English and General Paper, I can also provide help for History and Literature at both Secondary and JC levels

Commitment / Other Details
I am currently an undergraduate at the Singapore Management University, and I would be willing to start any time. Weekends and certain weekdays are open for lessons, and my schedule allows for multiple lessons a week if needed. During examination periods, I can provide crash courses, however I do prefer that lessons start early and on a regular basis to create a solid foundation. I am able to commit to tuition on a long term basis, but with each tertiary semester my own schedule will change, and I am happy to rearrange lesson days to suit the student.
Rapport Building
I believe that students, parents and teachers all have a stake in the student's education and outcome. As such, I am keen to communicate openly and flexibly with both parents and students, to update all parties on progress as well as listen to any concerns or ideas. Tuition should be engaging, and as a teacher it goes beyond simply the academic level, but also a chance to find out how to link the subject to students' areas of interest and make it more relatable to them.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
As a Good Tutor
A good tutor should be flexible, easy to approach and also honest. Tuition is something that requires a personal touch, or it would be no different from a classroom. I believe in tailoring a program that fits individual needs, and assignments and study techniques that suit the individual, rather than taking a generic approach. Creating an interest and making students see that improvement is achievable - through assignments and study techniques that suit individual methods of learning - are all key attributes of a good tutor, and these are qualities and approaches that I adopt.

      I have been teaching Chinese tuition in tuition centre for P1 to S4 Chinese since 2011

      I taught students with memory skills to let student remember Chinese easily to build up their confidence. For Chinese composition, they need understand the requirements of composition, what the elements they should include. So it will be stress free to finish their compositions.

      Keeping Up with Curriculum
      I have worked with tuition centres for teaching Chinese.

      I want to help more students to improve their Chinese.
      As a Good Tutor
      To improve the Chinese level, students need build up their Chinese vocabulary first, then apply them with different skills in different forms of exams. I usually focus on the student's week points in above mentioned items. So students will build up their confidence very soon.

                Rapport Building
                I have a spontaneous and outgoing personality with no problems with social interactions! I am able to communicate well with people around me. I would ensure that as a tutor to my student, I would constantly teach and not be bossy, impart the skills that i have acquired for the certain subjects to my students to allow them to improve their grades. Encouragement is important and so is honesty. I would be honest about their child's progress to the parent.
                Keeping Up with Curriculum
                My sister is currently in secondary school and I occasionally help her with her school work. Hence, in order to keep myself updated with the syllabus I would be using her materials to revise and keep in check with the current content and examination format.
                As a Good Tutor
                I think patience and understanding my student's needs are very important. I have to know exactly what my student is weak in and not assume that they have knowledge on certain ideas or topics, but to ensure that every scope is covered and they fully understand my lesson and teachings. Step-by-step approach and practice is key to improving grades and hence I would consistently keep this in mind when approaching the student's course of learning.
