Form 6 / Pre-U (STPM) / A-Level Tutors in Johor Bahru

Education

Ph.D in physics (University of Washington, Seattle), B.Sc in Physics, B.Eng in Materials Science and Engineering (National University of Singapore)

Experience

- A level results: Physics A, Chemistry A, Maths A - Taught in Singapore for 3.5 years. Taught at University of Washington for 6 years  - Well-versed with student difficulties in physics - Inquiry-based teaching. Teaching by half Socratic, half didactic. Will guide students through step-by-step when needed.

Tutoring Approach

I will address student's questions individually. I teach students step-by-step and how to think through physics, chemistry, and mathematics. I emphasize the definitions and key steps needed in problem-solving. Additional learning materials will be provided on request. For online tutoring, if you want me to look at your work, it would be helpful if you have a device that allows on-screen writing, such as Wacom, iPad, or Surface.

I would like to thank Teacher Elya for her help and her patience for my daughter. She is a great maths teacher and has helped a lot though my daughter Add maths.

Education

PhD in Chemical Engineering

Experience

I have Bachelor and Doctoral degree in Chemical Engineering from Monash University. I have 7 years of teaching experience. I have taught Chemistry, Mathematics, Biology, Physics, Thermodynamics, Reaction Engineering, and Mass and Energy Balances. 

Tutoring Approach

During lesson, I will first introduce the foundation knowledge, next define and analyse the problem, and lastly determine and assess a solution for the problem. Students are often concern with only the answer and not the process involved in solving a problem. In order to address this issue, I will present some example problems for them to solve together and encourage them to find solutions for the remaining problems by themselves instead of simply giving them all the solutions. I always try to understand the student’s point of view before teaching them, whereby this is to provide the students with broader understanding.

Education

PhD

Experience

I have professional degree in Chemistry, and familiar with secondary school syllabus. Expert in Cambridge Checkpoint, IGCSE, A-levels, SAT and IB chemistry, physics, biology, science, mathematics and English.

Tutoring Approach

Can form good rapport with students, positive and encouraging, patient, believing in student's ability to understand and improve on the subject matter. Currently teaching students from few international schools, including Marlbourough College (Iskandar), Raffles American School, Shattuck-St. Mary's Forest City International School, Sunway International School, Austin Heights Private & International Schools, Crescendo HELP International School, Repton International School and Fairview International School.

Education

PhD in Biosciences

Experience

I have started teaching Science/Biology to PMR and SPM students since I was 17 years old. After I started my Master's degree followed by PhD's degree studies, I have also taught more syllabi including STPM, A-level, IGCSE, Senior year Biology (UEC examination) and even some subjects in the foundation program. I am familiar with the latest syllabus and marking scheme. If you having poor results in Biology before, don't hesitate to inquire from me. I will try my best to assist you and let you get a much better result afterwards.

Tutoring Approach

I will plan the class based on student's progress and level of understanding. Most of the time, the student will be able to catch up on the syllabus after a few classes with me. My Biology class will not ask the student to memorise all the complex content/paragraphs recklessly. I will give the student my personal way to correlate the biological terms together and this would help them to express their mind/write the answer during the examination. Various approaches such as videos/documentaries/mind mapping are applied based on the student's needs.

Firstly, will get to know the student's areas of strength and weakness in related topics. Then will teach in-depth the topics using practical examples for easy capture. Encourage the student to ask questions and also guide in linking topics to better understand and to explore the correlation between topics. At the end of each session, the student will be given a 5-10 minutes quiz, which will help in recollecting information taught in that session. By this approach, students will be able to understand the topics well, theoretically and practically, enabling them to answer any type of related questions with confidence.

Tutoring Approach

Precisely my concern will be to make sure students to get high score in their subjects. However teaching is not just about giving tips or shortcut to get flying marks. "Grassroot Approach", this will be my major teaching technique. I will identify and implement the best teaching system depending on the individuals capability. High scores is one hand, the other is to prepare the student to be independent with the subject . Thus they will be clear about what is the reason they should learn this subject.
