Rapport Building
Hello, I am Yi Chao and I am turning 20 this year and graduated from Eunoia Junior College. I am likely pursuing my university degree at the Imperial College London and planning to major in Physics. I have always enjoyed teaching others, especially when I see visible improvements in terms of their grades and attitude towards their studies. In terms of teaching, I am currently teaching O-level Chemistry, Physics, Biology, and Mathematics and H2 Math, Physics and Chemistry. Previously, I tutored H2 Physics, Chemistry, and Math for 1.5 years. I have thought over a dozen students in various different subjects and they have all seen improvements in their grades and understanding. With regards to my grades, I have consistently excelled in Physics, Chemistry, and Mathematics. Apart from scoring A in these subjects for A levels, I was second in my level for H2 Chemistry during my prelims and also scored 89 for my H2 Mathematics for my prelims. As Physics is my favorite subject, I decided to take up H3 NUS Modern Physics and even plan to pursue it in university. I also participated in the various science olympiads since secondary school. With regards to my style of teaching, I personally believe in understanding concepts from their fundamentals as I believe that is the only way to tackle all sorts of questions, not just standard ones. I believe this is the best way to learn something as I believe people are generally interested in learning something and therefore, I believe that people actually derive joy from truly understanding something and will therefore be motivated to learn even more. Beyond explaining concepts and teaching topics, I also look to go through practice questions and exam papers as that is how I evaluate whether my student actually understands what is going on. When it gets closer to the exam season, I would shift towards a more doing paper-oriented style in order to teach students how to apply their concepts towards questions and to get the key points that give the all-important marks. I will also provide notes, materials, and a lot of past year prelim papers for practise. I will subsequently mark the work and explain how to derive the best answer. Also, I am more than willing to answer any of the student's queries any time of the week from school or anywhere else. All in all, I am looking to help advance your understandings and grades in various subjects!
