Test Preparation Tutors in Penang

Education

MBA

Experience

I graduated with second upper class in BSc in Business (2010). Currently, I am studying MBA in UNITAR International University. I have almost completed all subjects with current CGPA of 3.90. During my university studies, I was working as a part time tutor for around 4 years. I was handling BM, BI and Maths tuition classes for Standard 4 till Form 3. I am also a certified TESOL (English) teacher. Subsequently after graduation, I started my working life in commerce and banking industry.

Tutoring Approach

My aim as a tutor is to create in my students a deep understanding and confidence in answering exam questions and  being able to tackle new and unfamiliar problems.   My philosophy is based on the idea that learning happens in an environment of mutual respect in which the student is encouraged to think and make new connections for themselves.  My experience has been that one-to-one personal tuition has a unique value to students because of the ability to resolve the students’ personal barriers to learning in a way that lays the foundations for a deep and lasting understanding of the subject. My approach varies depending on the student’s needs and learning style. However my teaching philosophy is based on encouraging students to think for themselves, using real-world exampleswherever possible. I start from topics the students are comfortable with and move gradually towards more complex areas as their confidence builds. I use questions and examples to check understanding continually.  I don’t lecture to students or ask them to memorise things.  Nor do I do the students’ homework for them! I usually focus on exam-style or past paper questions in order to check, practice and perfect the student’s understanding and technique. I also give a lot of emphasis to some of the less obvious but vital skills such as essay structure and technique, logical thought, and the effective use of numbers and graphs.

BSc (HONS) Chemistry

Experience

I am graduated from UTAR, with first class degree in BSc(HONS) Chemistry. Currently, I am working as an Engineer in a well-established MNC. My mother is a secondary teacher, who has been teaching Form 3 Science and Form 4, 5 Chemistry over 20 years. I get to gain insight from my mother's lecture class on how to interact with students and how to make science and chemistry classes as interesting as possible. I have been tutoring Chemistry classes for more than 1 year.

Tutoring Approach

Chemistry might sound difficult to some students especially when it comes to equation writing and calculation. Some students might face difficulties when coming to the paper 3 (designing of the experiment) where memorization is the only thing they can do as no experiment has been carried out in school. In my tuition session, lab experiment will be illustrated in pictures or video form for better understanding. Real life examples/scenario will be given for clearer illustration, followed by attempting past year question to have an overview on how the exam questions will be like. If you are facing difficulties in attempting science or chemistry questions, or you feel it is difficult to memorize all the chemical equations, calculations and observations, I am the one who you are looking for to help you out. Wondering how a top student can score cpa 3.7 and above for every semester for 3 years continuously, without loads of stress, do give me a try. Thank you.
