Rapport Building
It's important for parents to be involved in the education of their child. I do not believe in a hands-off approach and would love to work with parents. I will send a monthly progress report detailing out weaknesses in specific sections of the papers and the curriculum covered (sent as a spreadsheet attachment) to keep parents in the loop and update via SMS when the kid is underperforming.

I treat all my students fairly - as responsible individuals - and will not punish them unnecessarily or excessively, even if they make a mistake. Repeated mistakes are given a window of 3 months to rectify.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
I have a pool of teacher and tutor associates, and acquaintances in the assessment book publishing units who actively keep one another updated with MOE policy changes.
As a Good Tutor
Good tutors should be able to motivate students. However, given the limited contact time, expecting tutors to be motivators is a tall order. I believe that what is achievable in that short weekly session is for the tutor to engage the student as effectively as possible, and have a distinct overview of the lesson plan for the year. Setting realistic goals and tackling weak links fall under the basic scope as well. Most importantly, I believe that a good tutor should have empathy, and remain personable in all sessions.

          I will ensure that the tutee can communicate with me freely without feeling shy so that I can answer their questions anytime when they have any. Therefore, I ensure that I communicate with my tutees as a friend instead of a strict teacher-student relationship.

          After every session, I will keep the tutee's parents updated on their child's progress and what I plan to do for the next lesson.
          Keeping Up with Curriculum
          I will visit the MOE website occasionally and review the syallabus to see whether there are any changes.
