I have taught more than 50 students, mostly 1-1 and small group class of not more than 5 students in class. To me, quality comes before quantity.

Tutoring Approach

My greatest achievement in tutoring over the years has been turning under performing students in certain subjects into great improvement of grades. One great example was a primary 4 student that went from F to A within a semester. More importantly is to make the students falling in love with these subjects. Once they love the subjects, everything else will be in place. I have great relationships with both the parents & the students. Overall, I love what I do. I think that matters the most.

Ms Jophy was a very nice tutor. She took the time to evaluate the needed for my upcoming exam. I have started Accounting from a very basic understanding. Ms Jophy quickly adapts the level to meet me, while at the same time demands my full focus and intensity to learn as much as possible during the lessons. Fantastic so far. Would recommend to anyone.

Before having tuition, I had no interest at all in Accounting. Through my school's friend, I got to know Ms Jophy. I requested for a free trial class from her. And within 1 month, I started to understand Debit and Credit and some theories through mnemonics that she taught me. I love the tuition class and enjoyed the lesson. I got an A in the first exam I had taken after tuition and this boosted my interest in accounting even more! After three months, I decided to have tuition with Ms Jophy in Mathematics and Additional Mathematics. She prepared her own colored notes for me.

Education

Bachelor Honours Degree (Biotechnology, 2011-2014) - UTAR; PhD Degree (Medical Entomology, 2015-present) - UNIMAS

Experience

I realised from my previous tutoring experiences that I am a tutor who rather emphasizes on understanding a particular concept than memorising it. Biology, contrary to popular belief among Malaysian, I believe is a subject which needs to be understood instead of memorised. It is my pleasure to aid students in grasping the main principles of the subjects I teach.

Tutoring Approach

Messages will be conveyed through mind maps and diagrams during Biology lessons. Each chapter will always start with an overview so that students might grasp the 'floorplan' of that chapter. When I go into the details, students will be guided to relate different parts of mind maps/diagram given during the class. Analogies on the other hand will be used to aid in understanding Mathematic. Once the students understand the concept, they will be guided to solve various Mathematical problems. For Mathematics, I believe in the saying 'Practice Makes Perfect'. All in all, my lessons are not only fun- and understanding-oriented. I like to trigger the student's mind to think critically so that they could answer questions asked in different ways during exams.

As to what he said in his introduction, he really emphasizes on understanding instead of memorising. I feel that it indeed is a better way to study a subject instead of always memorising it. I like how he is always very patient when his students don't understand a particular topic and how he doesn't mind repeating the same thing twice, or sometimes more than that.

I took IELTS in August and got 6.0 for writing. I retake again in December and went to her 2 weeks before my IELTS. I specifically requested guidance in writing and it improved from 6.0 to 6.5. I find that she is very dedicated as she checked and analysed all my previous essays to check for common mistakes that I tend to make when I write essays. The common mistakes she detected has helped me a lot in improving my writing. I find that she is very sincere in teaching as she really makes sure that I understand the items that she has taught. She also gave me a lot of tips to help me get higher marks in the IELTS Writing.

Bachelor Degree, Journalism & Broadcasting

Tutoring Approach

I'm exploring new ways of teaching Mandarin(Chinese), which NOT completely follow the school syllabus but solving the Chinese learning problems of children from fundamental factors. There are many factors to affect the level of children in Chinese comprehension and composition, such as vocabulary, grammar foundation, past experience, reading ability and habits, and thinking ability. If the children didn't build a good fundamental, they will feel very difficult to improve their Chinese level throughout the primary and secondary school career. My teaching objective is different from test-oriented education, but to focus on improving the students' Chinese foundation from the root. I think that to really improve the Chinese language ability, it is often inefficient or even ineffective to do a lot of academic exercises. (I had used this method to teach students before, but, in fact, the result depends more on their own level. Instead, it is useless, and also increases the frustration of the children, causing them to lose interest in learning this subject for those who weak in Chinese.) Therefore, I will design a teaching system to accumulate children's vocabulary, master the common grammar, develop reading interests and systematic methods, helping them to practice their ability of thinking and so on. This method is under development and is in the experimental stage, so it is not yet matured. Because of the reasons above, I may not suitable to teach the students who are Standard 6 or in Form 3, because the needs of them are focusing on the preparation of the exam. The objective of my course is to build a concrete foundation in this Language may cause them or parents become more anxious (since they have no time to learn the basic but have to deal with the final result) My teaching methods are the product of blending different educational concepts and models, including but not limited to gamification and deliberate practice. I hope to create a happy and positive systematic learning method and environment for children so that children can be more confident in Chinese learning. This is my mission.
