Most of my tutees start off with me at K2 till P6 . Almost all of my students' younger siblings are taught by me gradually. That reflects on the trust and satisfaction from parents towards me.

    I will first understand my student's background and his interests. For instance, if he or she is interested in a particular topic, say, cars, I will find relevant articles/Youtube videos and link them to the topic that I want to teach. For instance, I can use the COE bidding system to illustrate the concept of demand and supply. This will generate the student's interest in the topic and enable me to build rapport with him/her.
    Keeping Up with Curriculum
    I will purchase the latest guidebooks and exam papers so that I am clear about the current syllabus and the most commonly asked type of questions.
    As a Good Tutor
    As a good tutor, I will ensure that my student's learning needs are met. For instance, if he is a slow learner, I will be more patient and give more examples so that he will be better able to understand the concepts.

    In addition, I will also pay attention to my student's emotional needs. For instance, if he is feeling stressed up over examinations, I will advise him to stay calm and give him useful examination tips to tackle his exam blues.

    I had to understand my students by coming down to their level. Bear with me as I explain. If I were to lift up something, I have to put my hands under it and exert an upward force. In this case, I have to start from the very basics, the very simple and move on to more complex things. You can always see it on the students faces. It's like like a father who bends down to pick up his toddler, so that he can play with the toddler, quite literally, face to face. I spent the next few years developing myself in getting students to discover for themselves ways to read, write, listen and speak better English. I had to draw on my own learning experience in Japanese and Hebrew or that. If I were my own teacher, how would I teach? I have honed myself into a good teacher for that.
    Keeping Up with Curriculum
    The most direct method is to read the Cambridge website and markers report. I still have colleagues whom I am good friends with the supply me with the latest happenings within the industry. I can also see that the requirements for the same subject has changed over the years. However, with just a little variation, English is still English.
    As a Good Tutor
    I love my profession because I see it as the most meaningful thing I can do. I had a great teacher who inspired me to become one. I find it extremely satisfying to watch the students under my care grow, both academically and in other areas. I also enjoy working with parents to find out what problems their children are facing. I believe it takes a village to raise a child and in order to do so, parents and teachers need active communication. The trust and bonding may seem to take a lot of time, but it pays off when issues are resolved and the student concerned can focus on learning. All in all, my job is not about money. I truly believe that given the right education, my students will become responsible and contributing adults in the world of tomorrow.

        I am friendly and give a listening ear to students and parents whenever required. Paying attention to student's social and emotional needs too as stressed out students are unable to learn. It is perfectly fine for me to stay after tuition to play a while with my student. I update parents after every tuition session.
        Keeping Up with Curriculum
        I follow news updates on happenings to the school system and curriculum and browse MOE's portal to stay abreast of happenings. Reading latest assessment books and workbooks also informs me of changes to the curricula.
        As a Good Tutor
        Commitment, ethics, honesty, kindness, patience, firm and consistent, and care and concern for the child are values I hold close to my heart as an educator.
