Tuition/Teaching Experience
Do you have a hard time with Chinese, Maths & Science at upper Primary and Secondary levels? Fear not. With proper guidance, good learning atitude and constant practice, you can help yourselves overcome your learning obstacles.

I have almost a decade of tutoring experience. I
discover that the family background and school
environment are critical factors influencing a student's
performance, besides the right resources and academic
help available.

I use the MOE syllabus
(http://www.moe.gov.sg/education/syllabuses/) as the
basis of my tutoring.

I recommend 2 books for teenage students: 1) "I am Gifted, So Are You" by Adam Khoo on study techniques; 2) "Secrets of Successful Teens" also by Adam Khoo on teenage lifestyle.

    Tuition/Teaching Experience
    I have been tutoring since I graduated from Dunman Secondary School after my O levels. I have taught many students primary school mathematics. My most recent student was a Primary 4 girl who was failing her mathematics very badly. I taught her for 2 months as I was hired just 2 months before final exams and she managed to pass her maths with an average grade. My students in general show great improvement and I usually try to be a friend to them more than a tutor and make sure they enjoy the lesson. I also use in simple real life examples to illustrate the problem sums when student has difficulty understanding.

      Tuition/Teaching Experience
      I GRADUATED FROM Hwa Chong Institution in 2013, under the prestigious Humanities Programme (HP).

      I WAS AWARDED the Overall Top Student in the Arts Stream, as well as Top Student in H2 Literature, H2 Economics, and H3 Economics.

      I AM ALSO THE AUTHOR of TheAlevelGuide Notes for JC Students (http://thealevelguide.wordpress.com). They have been very well-received by students, as they are up-to-date and exam-focused. Do take a look!

      I TAUGHT General Paper in a renowned tuition centre, where I received great feedback from the students. My own private students have also improved remarkably, with my Sec 4 Language Arts student achieving an A1 (94 marks in EOY paper) in just a short span of two months. My JC 1 Economics student also improved to a B grade (Prelims) within two months.

      I am able to teach on WEEKDAY EVENINGS and WEEKENDS, beginning in Jan 2016.

      My rates start at $45/hour for JC students, depending on distance. If you are able to form a small group of 2-3 students, I am willing to offer a rate of $35/hour.

      Lessons have a minimum duration of 2 hours per week, in order to fully cover content and exam skills without rushing for time.

      I will be heading to the University of Cambridge to study Economics.
      Rapport Building
      As a private tutor, I am able to tailor my teaching to the needs of each and every student, as compared to teachers in tuition centres. As such, I am able to identify with the different learning styles adopted by each student, and help them understand concepts more easily.

      Having been a student myself, I understand their difficulties and concerns, and will be able to relate to them better.
      Keeping Up with Curriculum
      No one understands the syllabus better than a student who has just undergone the A-Levels and excelled at it. Not only have I mastered the content, but I also understand the exam strategies needed to score in the A-Levels. I know what the examiners are looking for, and I will impart these strategies to my students.

      I have also created my own notes, which students have found to be very up-to-date, relevant, and exam-focused. You may take a look at them here: http://thealevelguide.wordpress.com
      As a Good Tutor
      I am dedicated to helping my students score well in their exams. More importantly, I truly enjoy the subjects that I teach, and am therefore willing to answer any questions that they have, and never give up until they grasp the relevant concepts.

      I have also been accepted to study Economics at the University of Cambridge, one of the top universities in the world. As such, I will be able to help my students with their university applications as well.

      Having been both a student and a teacher, I am confident that I understand the exam system through and through, and this will be invaluable to any student hoping to excel in the A-Levels.

        Have been tutoring primary school students over 3 years. Student scored C for maths but end of year exam got a A. I do not only go through homework but focus more on doing exercises to help student understand properly why is it being done in such a way.
        I tend to always ask student how are they coping & if they have any questions to ask me so that I could ease their misunderstandings. Been tutoring for over 3.5 years and my students has seen to be improving.

            I prefer asking the students to explain to me how they feel about the related subject because that hints about the perception the students has on the subject. In my opinion, it is crucial that the student develop, at least to a small extent, a liking for learning, in whatever way suits them (not necessarily as a dry subject matter).

              I have been mentoring secondary and primary school students since my junior college year 2 days (2013). I volunteered for a mentoring program with my Secondary School as I was interested in teaching and mentoring my juniors. My current student improved her Primary 4 Maths from a fail to a band 2 grade after half a year of teaching. I really enjoy teaching and I would like to pass on my passion for mathematics to my students and make them see the joy in maths- which will eventually score them good grades!
