Commitment / Other Details
I can start ASAP and am committed to go the extra mile for the child. I work closely with parents with detailed feedback via whatsapp. 90% of my tutees for the past 6 years attained distinctions.
Rapport Building
I have be trained in Restorative Practices and used to conduct trainings for teachers on the ways to build rapport with students by actions, body language, words we use on them and being supportive and patient. Every child is different and thus getting to know the child well and enthusing the child based on his interest(link subject matter to interest) can make a whole world of difference.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
Syllabus is downloaded directly from SEAB website. I am in constant contact with my ex colleagues and am updated on changes. The most being moving from SPA(school based practical assessment) to practical exam with the introduction of planning incorporated within. The latest(2018) exam papers from different schools are also sent to me by my ex colleagues
