Commitment / Other Details
1 to 1 tuition is required for those who need intensive drilling. However, in a small group, language learning can be less pressurising and effective honing of communication skills is present as well.
Rapport Building
I believe a teacher needs to know the student well through conversation to practice communication skills, and learn to use the students' innate interests to engage in language learning.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
I am constantly building on my repertoire by producing resources and looking out for effective strategies to help learners of different interests.
As a Good Tutor
While 1 to 1 tuition allows intensive drilling and practicing with focused and immediate feedback, it can sometimes be too pressurising for a child. Hence, I also offer paired and small-group tuition (at lower rates) where students get to engage in meaningful activities with their peers, and learn from one another's strength. Moreover, in such a setting, they learn how to give varied opinions while practising active listening. All these are key for language learning, not just for the examinations, but for effective communication in the long run.
