Experience

I am Fatima and Ph.D. sports student at the University of Malaya (UM). I have 10 years of experience teaching. Weekday/weekend slots available! Location: your residence/clubhouse/condo pool.

Tutoring Approach

Students must have complete swimming attire (goggles, and swimming cap).  Swimming board will be provided by the coach.  The class will start with basic learning (water confidence, survival skills) and continue to swim lessons upon the student's request (freestyle, backstroke, breaststroke, and butterfly). The class will be 1 hour. I want to help and teach sports to other people and enjoy their life and also give positive energy and confidence to my dear players.

I enjoy tennis and love to integrate different sport activities such as rugby, hockey and many others to develop a good tennis player.

I tend to use pop-culture and real life examples to illustrate lessons/ points when teaching as they are the most immediate and relevant ways for students to learn.

Tutoring Approach

I will train the students by teaching from basic fundamental to middlegame and finish at endgame. I will play multiple of chess games with students. Guide them from A to Z. Give chess puzzle training,help them understand the reasoning behind every move. I have various strategies and technique to help the student apply what they learn. The student will have first hand learning from a pro player rather than teaching theory. They will also grow this chess not only as a player but learn the value of life. My lesson will be easy to understand and customized from amatuer,immediate up to advanced level. I hope this explaination is good enough for students to start learn from me. Hurry up! First come first serve. I only offer this training to 10 player for now. Thank You.

I have spent many years and a lot of money for my kids to learn in group classes but their techniques is very poor. Decided to engage Yan for my kids for private class and I think my kids learnt more in one lesson with her than 1 month in group lesson at D**. A bit hesitant at first because it’s not cheap but now I think it’s worth it.

(D) IGCSE  English, Chinese, French, Italian, Japanese, History, Sociology, English Literature, Business  

Tutoring Approach

Summary 1. Language Placement Tet 2. Understand the specific needs of students 3. Design relevant and effective syllabus 4. Deliver lecture and observe the development of learners 5. Make changes when possible according to feedback 6. Make sure that the lecture is delivered in enjoyable and effective manner. For language teaching, it is important to take care of the usage of language (grammar, vocabulary), cultural and social aspects and the pedagodical methods when transfering the knowledge to the students. General and specific usage intended to be used by the students when commanding the language will be taken into consideration. To strengthen the memory and impact of learning, appropriate stimulation method has to be used including activities, graphic etc.  Many people take language learning too easy and think that it can be managed in short time. Unless you are a genius, it's very rare for a person to be proficient in a language with just 10 - 20 hours of learning. Experience and research shown that to complete a typical CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages) level will need at least 80 to 200 hours. There is no short cut in learning a language and students have to be patient and know what you want for sure. Or else, it will be a waste of time and money.
