    Should be able to start immediately in most cases, and will be able to commit until O Levels.

    Group tuition sessions will be done in small groups on Zoom.
    Rapport Building
    I often try to go down to the level of the students so I can relate to them better, and also so that they are more often with me about their difficulties. For example, not all students will be comfortable admitting that they are unmotivated or lack focus.

    When students open up to me, it becomes easier to motivate and inspire them.
    Keeping Up with Curriculum
    I keep in touch with school teachers, as well as peruse the MOE syllabus and 10-year series every year.
    As a Good Tutor
    On top of subject knowledge, patience and the ability to inspire are important traits of a good tutor.

    A good tutor should also be able to adapt different teaching strategies to students with different learning styles.

      A good tutor must be well-versed in the subject area, passionate in teaching students, and responsible. Tutors should treat their students as if they were their own children and must never short change them.
      Tutors must always show care and concern to the students and constantly encourage slow learners so as to build up their self esteem. They must also be patient when teaching, especially to the slow learners.

        Have just graduated from JC 3 years ago; so I'm still in touch with the curriculum. For both A and O levels, learning new material is easy as my background in the humanities is strong and I can amend according to what the syllabus has right now. Humanities is less about content at these levels and more about methods and ways of approaching the question's demands, which is something I am strong at.
