Rapport Building
To establish a good rapport with students and parents alike, I believe patience and good communication skills work hand-in-hand with one another. As someone who is proficient in both the English and Chinese Language, I am confident in communicating my ideas clearly to my students. I am patient and willing to guide students through their thought process in solving questions. To illustrate, prompts and guides will be given to stimulate their thought process. I would offer strong emotional support and be encouraging at all times to remind students of their potential capabilities and make it comfortable for them to clarify any doubts with me. Knowing the importance for parents to keep track of their child's learning progress, I will take some time off after each lesson to do so and advise them on ways to facilitate their child's learning if possible.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
To ensure that I stay updated to the curriculum, I will definitely make sure to read up the syllabus and its marking criteria. I believe in making learning an enjoyable journey for all through the use of interactive tools like quizzes to engage students.
As a Good Tutor
As a good tutor, I believe it is important to stay updated to the syllabus and have a comprehensive knowledge of the marking criteria. It is also especially important to value depth over breadth such as going in depth and clarify any existing conceptual errors instead of gliding over them and diverting the focus to other questions. Though it is indisputable that practice makes perfect, in the process of practicing, it is necessary for students' to understand and internalize their mistakes first before carrying on with their practice. In doing so, it is definitely a more efficient way for students to learn. Moreover, exposure to different types of questions cannot be neglected when it comes to broadening students' horizons. Additionally, a good tutor not only have to be readily equipped with the relevant knowledge and skills, he too must have the ability to effectively communicate his knowledge. Last but definitely not least, I believe that making the curriculum fun and interesting is key to engage and enrich the students' learning journey, making learning more enjoyable and fun.

I do prefer 1.5 hour, 1 on 1 lessons but I am flexible. Upon agreement, I will be able to begin immediately and as long as our lessons are consistent, I see no reason to stop teaching.
Rapport Building
I have been tutoring since I myself was a student. While I have had other jobs, tutoring is the only one that I have done consistently all these years. Currently I am in my 30s. That is many years of experience.

When I started tutoring, it was only part-time. When I first started, I was in Singapore Polytechnic. I stopped teaching for 2 years while I served my National Service in the Singapore Coast Guard but resumed once I went back out into the working world. After not being happy going to work every single day, I decided to quit my full-time job to pursue being a freelance, full-time tutor. That was 5 years ago now.

A common question I get is if I do enjoy teaching so much, why not become a full-fledged MOE teacher? Financial issues from my younger days aside, I truly enjoy the flexibility of the freelance lifestyle.

My flexible schedule can be to your advantage as well. Need to move a lesson this week to another day? If I have a slot, no problem. Want extra lessons because exams are coming up? If I have the slot why not?

I feel that learning should be a part of life, not something extra that one is forced to do. That's how I approach tutoring. Calm, relaxed but firm when I need to be.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
I have no issues with keeping up with the curriculum. As I had mentioned above, I have been a full-time tutor for 5 years now. I have seen the Primary and Secondary school curriculums shift and change.

Honestly, a curriculum is not the most important thing. The most important thing is the understanding of the subject matter. For example, if you've spent years doing one job and you're suddenly forced to switch to a completely different sector, you're not actually starting from scratch. You still have all your life experiences. Your understanding of how a workplace operates, your understanding of people's behaviours, your understanding of how technology works. Understanding the idea behind something means you will never have to start from scratch.
As a Good Tutor
Tutoring is different from being a school teacher. A school teacher teaches the way they are taught to teach. With a standard that somebody else has made up with completely no understanding of a student as an individual. That's not their fault; it's just how the system is.

Being a tutor to me doesn't mean being a teacher. Being a tutor means being a puzzle solver. Each individual student is a puzzle that I have to solve. The way I teach one student very rarely is the same way that I teach another.

More than that, being a tutor (especially at my age) probably means being the first adult outside of a child's family to have a personal relationship with that student. This is a responsibility that I do not overlook and I am very open with parents regarding any issues that their child might have.

        With me as a tutor I would ensure that I can bring out the best of potential in my students to the best of my abilities. I would see that they make gradual improvements and that they enjoy the lesson.
        Rapport Building
        I would ensure that I remain contactable as much as possible and also seek to understand my student strength and weaknesses. By comprehending their weaknesses, I would be able to assess them better and at the same time help them to acknowledge that it is alright to have these weaknesses as long as it is ironed out. I would always communicate with the student's parents to enable them to keep up to date with their child progress under my tutoring.
        Keeping Up with Curriculum
        As a Good Tutor
        Good tutors should always be responsive when their students are in need of help and they should be able to help identify the students weaknesses over time. They should also be understanding and patience as every student have different speed at which they pick up new knowledge so they should not be rushing their students to absorb new materials. A good tutor should also be able to be strict and lenient with their students at appropriate timing so as to allow the students to understand that they are their friends but at some point of time when work needs to be done they should listen and not constantly be too friendly with the tutor.

          I have always been results-focused and disciplined in studying. Back in primary school I would always ace my exams and scored straight As for English and did so for PSLE. I taught my friends English in secondary school and GP in JC, I scored an A in those subjects too. My friend thanked me for being patient with him as he jumped from B4 to A1 for O levels. I hope to be able to do the same for the student by building a passion and a keen interest in the subject they are studying. At the same time, I intend to compliment their learning with guidance from my teaching and my elaborate yet clear notes.
          Keeping Up with Curriculum
          I have connections to current teachers and students and am constantly updated in the case of the syllabus having a topic changed, removed or added.
          As a Good Tutor
          I believe always in making a subject interesting for the student. Doing so will enable them to be more receptive to studying the subject and more inclined to commit certain facts and idea to memory, hence ensuring the best results possible. This has always been my teachig pedagogy that has proved effective not only in my own academics but those of the students whom I teach.
