Tuition/Teaching Experience
Hello!
As you can see from my Education Portfolio, I have great interest and passion in Design, something I chose to pursue and excelled over the years. However, being able to teach and help students is also one of my aspiration.

I believe that education is not just about grade(s), but also to truly understand the purpose of education - bringing knowledge into practice; in turn build a strong foundation for the young ones. This is why I had decided to commit in teaching, at the same time, lending a helping hand to the parents.

I am an experienced tutor who started off with part-time tutoring to full-time today. Before entering uni, I have also worked full time as a Child Care teacher. Parents are generally happy and comfortable by handing their children to me.

  • Primary 3 Mathematics-Problem Sums
    Course Description:
    The aim of the class is to boost confidence in students when it comes to solving problem sums. As we all understand, it is a heavy weightage component that one must and should excel to do well. The class seeks to strengthen one's foundation and comprehend the true beauty of problem sums.

    Of course, together, we will be still working towards the analogy of "Practice makes perfect!" Practice questions will be given based on the topics ongoing in school and the material used would come from both Past Year Examination Papers as well as onSponge Conquer Problem Sum Assessment Book. With practice and full comprehension of problem sum, we look forward to enjoying the subject and achieve greater improvements! :)
    Other Details:
    Pace of class will follow according to school's pace - to avoid information bombardment, that could necessarily lead to stress. But, of course, if students are strong, stable and confident enough, I am happy to up the challenge for them! :)

    Yes, homework will be given in moderate amount. In math, practice is still one of the key to improvements! :)

    • Primary 3 Science-Applying Science Concept
      Course Description:
      The aim of the class is to build a strong foundation in Science. Understanding science concept may be simple, but applying it accurately could be a challenge. The class would touch base on two factors 1. Understanding Topic/Concept 2. Applying it accurately.

      Similar to Math, "Practice Makes Perfect" would come into place. Exposure to Science questions is important, especially MCQ (60marks). We will be working a lot on past year practice papers (or even up the game to PSLE questions, just to get one comfortable and curious about things around.) :)

      Other Details:
      Payment will be based on 4 lesson / month.

      Pace of class will follow according to school's pace - to avoid information bombardment that could necessarily lead to stress.

      Yes, homework will be given in moderate amount. Who knows, one of the homework questions could be an exam question?! :)
