    Keeping Up with Curriculum
    I check the latest syllabus at SEAB regularly and also browse the latest ten-year series to understand how the exam formats have changed. I also keep in touch with my friends who are MOE teachers to find out more about the new directions taken in schools. However, I do not merely help my students keep up with the curriculum. I help them keep with the world by discussing current affairs with them to ensure that they are articulate and well-informed young adults.
    As a Good Tutor
    I think good English tutors do not merely use the ten-year series in their teaching, but promote real-life application and appreciation for the language. In my teaching methods, I prefer to instill in my students a love of the language, beyond the ten-year series. I expose my students to a variety of text types and literature so that my students are able to appreciate and use English a many different settings. These text types could include articles from the Economist, science-fiction novels by George OrwelI, or even talks by a variety of speakers on www.ted.com. I highly believe in prepare my students for a globalised world by discussing current affairs and also emphasising the oral practice of English to prepare them for their futures as working adults.

        I have a relaxed demeanour but a very strong work ethic. I put considerable effort into my lesson preparation so that the tutoring sessions are valuable and enjoyable. I hope to build on the student's existing knowledge to achieve their full potential. I am of course guided by the needs of each student but, as a marker for the OCR exam board, I have an understanding of mark schemes and how to get the best results in coursework and examinations. I know how important it is for students to display an understanding of context, an awareness of critical responses and an ability to analyse language. This all sounds rather dry, but I hope that my delivery will be creative and thought-provoking. I use tailor-made exercises, plenary sessions and essay planning to hone these skills. In advance of each session, I prepare my own worksheets, quizzes, revision guides and annotated excerpts from the text to consolidate the learning process.

        I strive to provide exceptional value for money and am happy to be contacted by the student out of hours and at no additional cost, with any questions. I am also happy to receive essay plans and essays by email and revert to students will full comments and suggestions for improvement.

At TKGS, I specialised in helping the weaker students in upper secondary in the Biology and Chemistry. Furthermore, I help my students out in AMath during our free time. I am open to answering questions after school should my students have any queries, they can easily contact me at my number, and I will try my best to reply promptly. I won't hesitate to go the extra mile for my students. My students have shown marked improvements from F9 to B3 in a single examination

          I have been tutoring regularly for 5 years now. I have been specialising in private/ group tuitions, and worked at a tuition centre previously as well.

          I am able to start with immediately upon request and do have ready materials for subjects like Biology, Chemistry, Economics and Math.

          I able to commit to a tuition assignment till the student's graduation. I am available on most days of the week to fully prepare my students well for their next exam and to be on par or better than their peers. Group sessions are available, location, timing and rate can be discussed.

          I am doing a double degree in Economics and Business Administration in NUS. I am also holding a prestigious local scholarship.

          When I was a student in my secondary school, my teacher selected me to coach a peer in a peer-tutoring program for AMath in secondary 4. Humbled by the opportunity, I took it readily. The batchmate I was assigned to had not passed AMath throughout secondary 3. We spent 30 mins together each session doing AMath for around 2-3 times a week. After 5 weeks of peer tutoring, it was time for our Prelims and I was very heartened when I received a text from her one morning thanking me for my help as she finally passed AMath for the first time! That further spurred my interest in helping my peers and an affirmation of my ability to connect with my peers and to help them better their studies.

          I have taught several students from St Andrews, TKGS, CHIJ Katong Convent, Hai Sing Catholic, Chung Cheng Main, Sports School, Catholic High, Raffles, Hwa Chong and Anglo Chinese etc.

          My teaching methodology - I will firstly start with a prep talk with my students as I believe education isn't about excelling in one subject but enjoying the experience of learning from various disciplines and working to excel to qualify for a new experience in a good school which will enrich the students' lives, we will align our expectations for the next examination, and I seek to help my students improve exam by exam, I tackle the root of their problem be it their content/ time management/ answering techniques, we will revise before attempting questions from the school/ ten year series/ other sources and I will point out questions which are common or exceptionally unique with my students. Of course, there are additional stuff which will come along the way as I adjust my teaching style to complement each student's needs. I seek to not just impart knowledge but to build rapport with my students to ensure greater cooperation and success.

          Given my personal experience in revising, improving and eventually excelling for the O and A levels examinations as well as my stint at TKGS, I am able to relate to students' unique struggles when dealing with these various subjects and how to help them.
          Keeping Up with Curriculum
          I am updated with the curriculum as my siblings are studying and I am currently teaching in a mainstream school which keeps me up to date and equips me with the necessary skills to help students.
          As a Good Tutor
          I coach students who are among the weakest of their batch in school. They obtained F9 in their final term examination in secondary 3 and have managed to improve significantly to obtain a B3 to A1 within an examination. This is testimony of the combined effort of the teacher and student to obtain such stellar improvement. I am heartened and humbled by their achievement and look forward to helping more students find their passion for learning and to excel in their work.

            Previously I had 3 years of tutoring experience, especially in Primary school levels. 9 out of 10 students improved at least 1 band for all tutored subjects within an academic year.

            Due to back issues, I'm quitting my current job of 4-1/2 years, to go back to what I love most, teaching and learning with children.
