Rapport Building
A tutor who prefers to not give additional homework to students, and lessons will be focused on teaching concepts and clarifying students' questions to enhance their grasp and understanding. However if the student is ready or additional homework is required, I would use workbooks and practices for the student. I prefer to mainly use work given by students' teachers as learning and practice opportunities, and teaching sessions will be a 2-way dialogue to ensure student is able to explain back the concepts + answers. Once fundamentals have been strengthened, lessons will then be focused on doing additional practices. Past students have found classes engaging and interesting, and each class is tailor-made to suit the individual needs of the student. Apart from my teaching style, I am also happy to cater to the parents' concerns and needs to suit what they feel is best and prefer for their child. Feedback is more than welcome.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
The school syllabus is available online and easily accessible, hence the learning objectives of the syllabus is used as a benchmark to keep up with the curriculum. Also, I would be able to tap on my network of peers and past teachers for advice regarding current curriculum and syllabus.
As a Good Tutor
The best tutors are able to customize and suit the student to bring the best out of them. Different students may need to be taught differently and I would try my best to identify this as early as possible. In getting the student engaged, interested and motivated, the student would be able to absorb more efficiently and perform better.
