Commitment / Other Details
Rapport Building
For the past 2 years, I have worked in a local airline and served as a Vice-Head in Knowledge Development to 20 people. As there were many examinations and tests throughout the year, this position gave me the opportunity to tutor and guide my fellow colleagues in areas that they were struggling with, in order to pass the important examinations. These areas include the application of Mathematics and Physics theories and how they relate to the world of aviation.
Besides teaching experiences in a workplace environment, I have tutored my cousin in Mathematics for O levels in 2019. She went from a C6 to an A2.
Due to COVID, I have since lost my job and am currently continuing my studies as an undergraduate, studying Marketing. This further strengthens my knowledge in Economics and Mathematics. I hope to be able to share the useful knowledge, tips and tricks that I have gathered throughout my years of studies with my fellow students. My goal is to be able to pique an interest for learning and to nurture a curious mind for knowledge.
Keeping Up with Curriculum
- Attempt past years exam papers
- Look through latest textbooks and their questions
- Read and understand local subject guides
As a Good Tutor
I have been told by my peers that I am approachable, friendly and would always put on a smile.
My teaching style is to simplify complex theories into bite-sized information, which makes it easy to remember, and to retrieve when needed.
Depending on the learning style of my students, I can switch the tone of the lesson from a more relaxed environment to a stricter, fast-paced one.
