Tuition/Teaching Experience: Nine years of teaching followed by four years of tutoring experience.

My past students have ranged from the bottom of the barrel to the top of the class as I had taught secondary 1 to 5, Express, N(A) and N(T) classes English Language, History and Social Studies.

My classes always do better than the others despite being assigned the more active classes. The reason is that I take the time to understand my pupils, where they are and where they need to be to get to where they want to go. Then I make sure they learn what is needed through all the means and ways available at my disposal.

Tutoring Subjects

Commitment / Other Details: I am able to start classes on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Sundays now. My tutees choose whether they want to just learn a particular area, like how to improve their summary skills, or if they want to just more practice and feedback on their work. I will continue the assignment until the tutee is ready.

Rapport Building: I taught N(T) classes. I came out of the class with everyone alive and everyone smiling. In my last year of service, my N(T) English class outperformed the previous years' results.

If I can motivate and work with disruptive N(T) pupils, I can do the same for your child.

Keeping Up with Curriculum: As a former MOE teacher, I am able to understand the intent behind changes in the curriculum and adapt accordingly. Therefore I help my tutees to score by understanding what the examiner is looking out for and why they are tested in these new areas.

I have also been responsible for updating a tuition centre's curriculum and worksheets for the new English Language (Secondary) syllabus. I have also been teaching 80 tutees in group tuition weekly.

As a Good Tutor: The most important aspect of an educator is to have a clear vision of where my pupil needs to go, know where he currently stands and work with him to get there by sharing and resolving his concerns.
