    I would like to talk with both the parents and the student themselves to ask and find out more about their specific needs and problems with regards to the particular subject and also learn from them what they hope to achieve from the tutoring sessions. I would also like to ensure constant communication with the student and parents to ensure we are all moving on the right track at the right pace and that their needs are being fulfilled correctly by me as a tutor.
    Keeping Up with Curriculum
    Aside from keeping up with the current textbooks and workbooks, I also look at assessment books to keep myself in touch with what is expected of the syllabus.
    As a Good Tutor
    I think that the basic qualities of a good tutor is that she/he is able to communicate comfortably with the student so that the student does not feel uncomfortable or nervous to ask any questions and clarify doubts. Tutors should also be able to see if the student is able to keep up with their teaching style and try to ensure that their teaching style adapts to meet the learning style of the students as well.

        I keep constant contact with my students and parents through WhatsApp and email. They are free to contact me 24/7 (within reasonable limits).
        Keeping Up with Curriculum
        I am currently running a programme with around 200 students. I constantly talk to my students, my ex-MOE colleagues and my current colleagues to ensure the syllabus and materials are up to date.
        As a Good Tutor
        I am a patient and passionate teacher who has taught many students from Tao Nan, ACS, SJI and many other schools. I believe that all students can succeed, if given an opportunity. I have developed curriculum for MOE & private centres, and I have figured out how to help students learn English and Humanities easily using a formula-like approach. I further customise this to each student. Many students have benefitted from my approach.
