Rapport Building
I will try to update the tutee's progress on the subject with his/her parents on a regular basis to keep the parents informed about the student's performances

The content taught to student and the pace of teaching will be amended based on the tutee's understanding of the subject so that he/she can follow.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
Reference books available in the market and MOE online portal will be used primarily as sources of information on the curriculum.
Exam papers from different schools as well as revision notes will be used as a gauge of how other students in the same cohort are doing.

I am currently an undergraduate student majoring in chemical engineering. Hence maths and chemistry are still relevant subjects of concern, and will make sure that I am informed about any updates in the related fields.
As a Good Tutor
A good tutor should be able to patiently adjust him/herself to the individual needs of the students.

The ultimate goal is to help a student get rid of any misunderstanding or lack of knowledge in one subject, as well as to instill the interests on the subject into the student's mind, so that he/she can become an active and self-motivated learner of the subject in the time to come.

        Tuition/Teaching Experience
        I have taught 2 students before, one a Secondary 2 Nanyang Girl and another a JC1 HwaChong student. I taught mathematics for both students. They were both under my care for the entire last year until this year when I had to stop because I had a lot of commitments during the start of this year.

        Also, I performed very well in secondary school and constantly got below 2 for my Mean Subject Grade (MSG). This means that I scored an average grade between A1 and A2 throughout the entire 4 years of my secondary school education.

        I would be a great tutor because I am young, and thus able to relate better to the students who would be just 3 or 4 years younger than me. Also, I am outgoing and cheerful thus able to motivate them.

        I am a very approachable and friendly person. I understand that each student has his or her needs, weaknesses and of course, strengths, and I am to tap on their potentials and bring out the best in them.
        Keeping Up with Curriculum
        I have been giving tuition constantly these 1-2 years and I am very familiar with the current curriculum and exam syllabus. I double check my knowledge with the SEAB syllabuses time to time and also keep myself abreast of the current question trends by reading through past year updated exam questions.
        As a Good Tutor
        I have a passion for teaching, I gain a sense of fulfilment seeing students improve slowly over time- besides teaching them academically, I also wish to teach them life lessons and help them mature over time. I am very patient when it comes to teaching, and I start from the basics no matter what as I believe in building good foundation before attempting difficult topics/questions. Last but not least, I aim to aid my tutees in gaining their own self-motivation and finding their own drive when it comes to tackling the examinations.

        I started home tuition during my undergraduate years in NTU, which was about 20 years ago. During this time, I inspired and guided many students from Pri/Sec/JC levels from all walks of life, particularly in the academic field of Sciences and Maths. I derive satisfaction seeing my students excel in the subjects that I had tutored, as making them successful is what matters to me.

        I will take time to understand the needs of the students and find ways we can work together to mitigate any issues that is hindering the student's progress. This will be done progressively during the tuition as to understand the thinking process as well as the comfort level of the students with respect to the time balance from home work, school activities and play time. Words of encouragement and sharing of life stories or motivational stories is important to change the attitude and let the students have more visibility to make the correct choice and take responsibility.
        Keeping Up with Curriculum
        Every year, I will refer to the MOE website to understand and take note on the update for the curriculum changes. I will review and contextualize my learning notes to suit the current requirements for my students.
        As a Good Tutor
        Being a responsible parent and tutor, I understand the level of commitment goes beyond not only providing the required syllabus, but also encourage good values as well as build their sense of responsibility and level of self-esteem. Being an adult trainer, I understand the need of using the 21st century teaching methodologies for effective learning. I will share my teaching strategy to the parents and students to form a collaboration to achieve the academic goals together.

            I will always try to be a friend to my student first in order to make them look forward to the lessons as I believe after all, in order to score well, the student has to put in the effort too. I will make my lessons more interesting and ensure consistent recap of previous chapters. I will find more exercises to expose my students and teach them different studying methods. And of course, always motivating them.

Motivation is very important to a student to keep them going. Besides, I have experience in handling children with special needs (e.g. autism). I believe that all students are able to do well as long as they work hard for it.

              I have been teaching PSLE students at the Mendaki Learning Centre for about a year now and have had experience mentoring students both in secondary and primary school as well. My key selling point would be my patience and understanding of how different students need different approaches in understanding key concepts as i was once an average student who had mentors guide me to where i am presently.

              Commitment / Other Details
              I am able to start immediately and am willing to travel to the location or have the tuition classes at my house as well. I will be available on Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays all day long for lesson scheduling.
              Rapport Building
              I would firstly like to understand where the students stand at right now based on their understanding of the subjects, their willingness to learn and what their learning capacity is during a lesson. That will help me understand the optimal level of pushing required to get the student learning at his best potential as all of us are different. As for parents, i would like to grasp their expectations from myself and their children and provide a realistic benchmark for grades and development of their children.
              Keeping Up with Curriculum
              Teaching at Mendaki has given me the chance to constantly be in touch with the current curriculum and the level expected by their schools and the current education system.
              As a Good Tutor
