    I do prefer 1.5 hour, 1 on 1 lessons but I am flexible. Upon agreement, I will be able to begin immediately and as long as our lessons are consistent, I see no reason to stop teaching.
    Rapport Building
    I have been tutoring since I myself was a student. While I have had other jobs, tutoring is the only one that I have done consistently all these years. Currently I am in my 30s. That is many years of experience.

    When I started tutoring, it was only part-time. When I first started, I was in Singapore Polytechnic. I stopped teaching for 2 years while I served my National Service in the Singapore Coast Guard but resumed once I went back out into the working world. After not being happy going to work every single day, I decided to quit my full-time job to pursue being a freelance, full-time tutor. That was 5 years ago now.

    A common question I get is if I do enjoy teaching so much, why not become a full-fledged MOE teacher? Financial issues from my younger days aside, I truly enjoy the flexibility of the freelance lifestyle.

    My flexible schedule can be to your advantage as well. Need to move a lesson this week to another day? If I have a slot, no problem. Want extra lessons because exams are coming up? If I have the slot why not?

    I feel that learning should be a part of life, not something extra that one is forced to do. That's how I approach tutoring. Calm, relaxed but firm when I need to be.
    Keeping Up with Curriculum
    I have no issues with keeping up with the curriculum. As I had mentioned above, I have been a full-time tutor for 5 years now. I have seen the Primary and Secondary school curriculums shift and change.

    Honestly, a curriculum is not the most important thing. The most important thing is the understanding of the subject matter. For example, if you've spent years doing one job and you're suddenly forced to switch to a completely different sector, you're not actually starting from scratch. You still have all your life experiences. Your understanding of how a workplace operates, your understanding of people's behaviours, your understanding of how technology works. Understanding the idea behind something means you will never have to start from scratch.
    As a Good Tutor
    Tutoring is different from being a school teacher. A school teacher teaches the way they are taught to teach. With a standard that somebody else has made up with completely no understanding of a student as an individual. That's not their fault; it's just how the system is.

    Being a tutor to me doesn't mean being a teacher. Being a tutor means being a puzzle solver. Each individual student is a puzzle that I have to solve. The way I teach one student very rarely is the same way that I teach another.

    More than that, being a tutor (especially at my age) probably means being the first adult outside of a child's family to have a personal relationship with that student. This is a responsibility that I do not overlook and I am very open with parents regarding any issues that their child might have.

      For Parents: I believe in fostering strong relationships with parents to support their child's learning journey. I prioritize open communication, actively listening to their concerns, and tailoring my approach to meet each family's unique needs. Additionally, I provide supplementary services such as personal summaries, worksheets and exam planning. I ensure transparency by providing financial statements for clarity in transactions. I am committed to going the extra mile and investing additional time if needed, as long as the student is motivated to improve. Celebrating achievements together and collaborating on problem-solving further strengthens our partnership, ensuring the best outcomes for their child's education.

      For Students: I prioritize engagement and understanding, allowing them to enjoy learning while staying motivated. By taking an interest in their passions and hobbies, I establish rapport and create a comfortable learning environment. Before exams, I provide encouraging pep talks to boost confidence and alleviate anxiety. Implementing short breaks every 30 minutes promotes productivity and prevents burnout. Additionally, I allocate time to listen attentively to their daily experiences, fostering a supportive relationship.
      Keeping Up with Curriculum
      To keep up with the curriculum, I prioritize ongoing learning and collaboration. Regularly attending workshops, seminars, and professional development sessions helps me stay informed about curriculum changes and educational advancements. Additionally, I actively engage in discussions with colleagues, curriculum coordinators, and subject matter experts to exchange ideas and best practices. Leveraging educational resources such as textbooks, online materials, and educational journals further enhances my understanding of the curriculum content and teaching methodologies. Reflecting on my teaching experiences and student outcomes enables me to assess the effectiveness of curriculum implementation and adapt my strategies accordingly. I also participate in professional networks and online communities to stay updated on curriculum trends and innovations, ensuring that my teaching practices remain aligned with the curriculum requirements. Through continuous learning, collaboration, and reflective practice, I ensure that I deliver quality education and effectively support student learning.

      In addition to attending workshops and collaborating with colleagues, I dedicate time to personally complete exam papers. This approach allows me to ensure that I can not only solve all questions but also understand the thought patterns required to work through the answers. By immersing myself in the examination process, I gain valuable insights into the nuances of different question types and identify areas where students may encounter challenges. Moreover, this practice enables me to innovate new methods of solving questions, potentially offering more accessible approaches for students. Through this proactive approach to curriculum preparation, I strive to provide students with the support and resources they need to excel academically.
      As a Good Tutor
      In my opinion, a good tutor is both strict and patient. Firstly, patience is essential, as it allows the tutor to work through challenges with students at their own pace, ensuring comprehension and mastery of concepts. Adaptability is another important quality, enabling the tutor to tailor their teaching methods to suit the individual needs and learning styles of each student. Clear communication skills are also vital, as they facilitate effective explanation of complex concepts and instructions. Additionally, empathy and understanding help tutors build rapport with students, creating a supportive and encouraging learning environment. Finally, passion for teaching and subject matter expertise motivate tutors to inspire and empower students to achieve their academic goals. Overall, a combination of being strict, patience, adaptability, communication skills, empathy, and passion characterize a good tutor.

          I'm able to start pretty much immediately, and I'll be around for the next couple months, but I'm sure we can work out the finer details if you have any questions :)
          Rapport Building
          Getting to know my student is important; beyond their strengths and weaknesses, their personalities matter too. Their hopes and dreams, any mental barriers that they might be grappling with that's impeding them. Parental insights are valuable too, since they know their kids best, so really rapport building is all about keeping both parties' best interests in heart and making sure their concerns are both acknowledged.
          Keeping Up with Curriculum
          I keep up to date using revision books in Popular outlets -- that way I know what essays and comprehension questions expect of current students. The rest, I believe, is up to personal practice (since English is less about cramming than it is practice, understanding, and experimentation.)

            I observe each student carefully and try to teach in methods that would suit their learning style. Also, I approach parents to understand each student thoroughly to ensure that they are infact using what they have learnt and if they are not, I come up with new approaches to maximize learning.

              Rapport Building
              Actively listen and observe to accurately identify needs of students (and parents). I also believe in developing learner autonomy through interactive and participatory teaching, and thus seek to tap on strengths and interests of students to facilitate learning and improve weaker areas. Empowering them will build their confidence to learn (for students) and to assist with learning (for parents).
              Keeping Up with Curriculum
              Regularly read MOE site/news/blogs/forums; consult other tutors; observe type of assessment books sold on the market
