Commitment / Other Details
I do have existing tuitions as at now but am still able to take in assignments for a long term period. I am also continuing my further studies in the evening and will be starting in April 2021.
Rapport Building
Firstly I will try to get to know the child well and his/her likes and dislikes. Then from there, I will try to build on a rapport with the child. So that the child will have a liking for me in order to like or understand what I am going to teach him or her. As for parents, I will try to keep constant communications with them in order to update them about the child's progress.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
I constantly keep myself updated with the syllabus and on the various teaching methods introduced. I do have some teaching friends whom I also approach at times to clarify and verify my doubts.
As a Good Tutor
First of all, as a good tutor, I must be versatile enough to adapt to each and every child's individual needs. So that I will be able to guide them accordingly in those particular subjects. Apart from that, I should also be a tutor with much enthusiasm so that the child too will feel excited to learn from me. I also need to prepare additional items for the child to engage in as a learning source so that the child doesn't goes by the book as the child might get bored. I also feel that as a good tutor i must engage the child in his or her pace instead of pushing the child just to finish the chapter.

        I can start asap and am able to commit to tutoring students for a full year or more.
        Rapport Building
        I am very patient with students who are slow. Although I want to keep a friendly and comfortable atmosphere during lessons, I am also firm and expect any given work to be completed within the assigned time. I give assignments but I keep in mind how busy students are with schoolwork so I make sure the amount given is feasible and not add stress to the student. I generally keep in touch with the parents to update them of their child's behaviour and progress during tuition time. I also update parents of child'e needs (like books etc) via Whatsapp usually if needed. Unless I develop illness overnight, I rarely cancel/postpone tuition. If I need to cancel/postpone, I will inform parents asap.
        Keeping Up with Curriculum
        I am very familiar with the current syllabus for English, Geography and Social Studies. I also keep in close contact with my ex-colleagues and check with the SEAB website to keep myself updated with any changes to the current syllabus and upcoming new syllabus.
        As a Good Tutor
        Besides being highly committed, I feel that a good tutor plans the lessons based on the child's abilities and needs. So assessing and understanding the child's abilities and restrictions is important. I believe in progress in incremental steps, no matter how small. However, it is very important that students do their part and not expect miracles within a short time.

            Rapport Building
            I prefer to keep in touch with the parents during every lesson. this way, the parents would be able to guide the students in between lesson days. Parents are also encouraged to keep in touch with me via messaging or watsapp to check on their children's progress.
            Keeping Up with Curriculum
            Yearly syllabus updates sent by MOE is brought under light and i keep updating my notes accordingly. I keep up closely with the schools in order to emphasize on the strong building of fundamentals in the students. I do not deviate from the school curriculum, as this will completely defeat the purpose of attending tuition classes.
            As a Good Tutor
            We must understand the needs of a student, beyond studies. Some students may not be able to focus well in certain subjects due to their aversion and dislike. we need to understand their interest and make them like the subject by teaching it in a way they like. for this we need to understand the students well.
