Commitment / Other Details
Able to start as soon as possible: matriculating August 2019, but will commit to teaching until end of 2019.
Rapport Building
I believe in building rapport by demonstrating a passion for teaching and for my subject, as well as in clear communication of the goals and expectations of each party.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
I am updated with the current JC curriculum as I am currently teaching a Raffles Institution student who is J2 in 2019, and occasionally update myself with the O level curriculum by teaching my sister, who is currently in Secondary 3.
As a Good Tutor
As a good tutor, one should be concerned more with the student's learning than merely with their academic performance, attentive to the strengths and weaknesses in the student's understanding of core/fundamental concepts, and able to get the student to answer questions by themselves, rather than relying on the tutor to help them find the answers.
