    1. A Heart to Teach
    I believe that a great tutor must first have the heart to teach. "I coach with my heart." was what my Karate teacher said. One's heart must be in the right place before being able to do well in that place.

      For younger children, I usually incorporate some games during the session so as to help the children learn in a fun way which also helps to increase their interest in the subject. I would encourage students and their parents to drop me a text whenever they have any doubts or problems that I can help with. After every session, I will update the parents on how their child's progress.
      Keeping Up with Curriculum
      To keep myself updated with the curriculum, I will check out the relevant textbooks and workbooks to learn more about the current syllabus.
      As a Good Tutor
      I believe that learning should be fun and interesting to every student. I will gladly respond to my students' queries or doubts regarding their homework and school work through text messages after tuition hours.

        I understand that every student has a different learning pace and will ensure that I am able to cater to my students' own needs by understanding the difficulties they face before addressing them. As a fresh JC graduate, I am able to relate to the younger students as I have been in their shoes and understand the possible struggles they are facing and how to effectively overcome them and improve their academic performance. I will also keep the parents informed of their child's progress by communicating with them regularly and address any of their concerns.
        Keeping Up with Curriculum
        I help my younger cousins in primary and secondary school with their schoolwork and thus am updated with the curriculum. I have also kept both personal notes and school notes from my previous years of education that are valuable and relevant to the curriculum.
        As a Good Tutor
        I think a good tutor should be patient and care about the individual needs of their students by taking the time to understand each child's character and learning style before devising a suitable teaching method.

          I am able to commit to a student until he/she graduates from his/her respective course. I have many students whom I taught from Secondary 1 to Seconday 4/5. One IB student has been with me for 5 yrs.
          Rapport Building
          My past students have shown great improvement, some from Cs or Bs and eventually achieving As in their respective mathematics subjects.
          I am a patient and dedicated teacher who believes a student requires exposure to various mathematics questions in order to do well so lots of practise will be provided during my class I also provide clear explanations to mathematical concepts so that students can understand instead of memorising. I am also flexible in my timings, so if a student has any last minute appointments, I usually will try my best to accomodate to his/her timings. In my professional career I have a Bachelor of Vet Science HonsIIA degree and I am an experienced veterinarian but I am currently taking a break to teach full time. I am on the Deans list for two semesters in 2011 and 2012 and won an award for excellence for veterinary pharmacology in 2013.
          Keeping Up with Curriculum
          To keep up with the curriculum, I usually go online to extract the latest maths questions and come up with good summarised materials so that I can teach more effectively and help my students understand complicated maths questions better. I am also constantly on the look out for courses which I can attend to improve my teaching methods. One of the courses I am looking to attend is how to teach higher order maths to dyslexic and dyscalculia students or special needs students. From there, I can better understand their struggles and also adapt the teaching methods to help my weaker students.
          As a Good Tutor
          I think the basic qualities of a good tutor is how approachable he/she is. I feel strongly that a good tutor should be non judgemental and help all students to achieve to the best of their ability. A good tutor should also be open minded and make learning maths enjoyable.

              Commitment / Other Details
              free to transition into full-time tutoring, unless I am offered a position with an ESL school, in which I would give advance notice and still be available in the weekends. Group class: Admiralty/WL
              Rapport Building
              It depends on the age of the students. For lower primary children I like to give stickers, sometimes sweets (after I have gotten the permission of parents of course) and I generally enjoy chit-chatting with the younger students, most of whom I can confidently say enjoy my company (I have photo evidence!).

              For upper primary kids and above I generally try to treat them more as equals, since they tend to dislike being 'looked down upon'. I also usually make small-talk with them when I can, to try and get to know them better as individuals, and tailoring my teaching style according to their personalities (for example, when dealing with more sensitive students).

              As for parents I try to communicate with them after every class, to let them know what their children are weak at, and how they can also improve outside of class time - for example, through self-practice. I also let the parents know of their children's behavior during class; whether they are attentive or not in particular (since I have dealt with kids that sometimes just refuse to do their work).
              Keeping Up with Curriculum
              I have younger siblings still in school with all the relevant materials to keep me in the know of the syllabus.
              As a Good Tutor
              I think patience and control of one's temper are the most important qualities. As someone who has handled large classes of children for months being patient with each child is difficult especially when they all go at their own pace, but very important. There is a general tendency to want to rush through things with every child, and having patience to work with each is thus important.

              I've also dealt with children that are not always the most well-behaved - my previous workplace has kids that cannot sit still, like to move around and also like to talk back to teachers and try to get away with doing less work. Controlling my temper to make sure I do not explode and affect my student, while still disciplining them properly is a skill I believe is also necessary. A tutor should know when to be nice to a student and when to go hard on them when it is needed.
