Tutoring Subjects

Commitment / Other Details: I am able to start immediately at any place in Singapore

Rapport Building: I had to understand my students by coming down to their level. Bear with me as I explain. If I were to lift up something, I have to put my hands under it and exert an upward force. In this case, I have to start from the very basics, the very simple and move on to more complex things. You can always see it on the students faces. It's like like a father who bends down to pick up his toddler, so that he can play with the toddler, quite literally, face to face. I spent the next few years developing myself in getting students to discover for themselves ways to read, write, listen and speak better English. I had to draw on my own learning experience in Japanese and Hebrew or that. If I were my own teacher, how would I teach? I have honed myself into a good teacher for that.

Keeping Up with Curriculum: The most direct method is to read the Cambridge website and markers report. I still have colleagues whom I am good friends with the supply me with the latest happenings within the industry. I can also see that the requirements for the same subject has changed over the years. However, with just a little variation, English is still English.

As a Good Tutor: I love my profession because I see it as the most meaningful thing I can do. I had a great teacher who inspired me to become one. I find it extremely satisfying to watch the students under my care grow, both academically and in other areas. I also enjoy working with parents to find out what problems their children are facing. I believe it takes a village to raise a child and in order to do so, parents and teachers need active communication. The trust and bonding may seem to take a lot of time, but it pays off when issues are resolved and the student concerned can focus on learning. All in all, my job is not about money. I truly believe that given the right education, my students will become responsible and contributing adults in the world of tomorrow.
