Rapport Building
I am an experienced journalist who regularly appeared on TV(almost daily). A seasoned reporter and sports presenter who was with Mediacorp for over six years. Having honed my professional skills with the help of media veterans communicating with people from different walks of life is part and parcel of my profession. I have a good memory too. I believe both these qualities will help me strike a good understanding with parents which would in turn help me identify the issues students are facing. I will then structure my teaching in a way it helps the students without deviating from their curriculum. Basically the key would be to have an open chat with parents to develop an understanding.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
Before I start classes I would do extensive research on the current curriculum. I would check on the textbooks used today and speak to other MOE teachers and tutors I know. I will use my contacts and experience as a journalist to accomplish this(I have covered MOE stories too). Keeping up with the curriculum is not an overnight affair. It is a learning journey for the tutors as well so I will continue to stay on top of the syllabus to do a good job.
As a Good Tutor
I would try my best to understand the students and motivate them first. I will ensure they believe in themselves. That way students will enjoy the lessons without being overwhelmed by them.

          Currently, I am working full time in a tuition center on weekdays, specialising in Math & Science. I am also a freelance curriculum developer and tutor over the weekends.
          Rapport Building
          Having been teaching over a significant number of years, I am experienced in this field & familiar with the syllabus. My day job also exposes me to exam question analysis(particularly in pri math & sci), therefore, I am clear about the must-know-questions that will help students accelerate grades fast.

          During lessons, I will ensure that my students first understand the concepts thoroughly before exposing them to a variety of questions to practise.

          I also strongly believe that in order for significant improvements to happen, a student must work hard together with his or her tutor. A positive learning attitude will propel a student's progress further. That said, I look forward to working together with you in giving my best to help your child.
