I like her honesty in teaching. I am a working (and busy) working adult with an intention to persue study. So since MUET is a must course to enroll to the University of my likings, so I thought a simple preperatory MUET class will do as I thought I am good enough to go. After attended few classes with her, she honestly told me that I could not make it there with my current performance (and dicipline) plus I had given her in such a short time and preassure, so she almost gave me up. Realising the weakness part in me, stretch myself to learn again and attended the Fundational English. Throughout the first session, I realised that there are plenty room for improvements that we can discover to be more literate. Entering the second session, the mood of fun learning changed into combat mode- as we target for the best scores we could. Honestly, I had targetted Band 3 for myself. When the results came, I managed to get 4.5! For me, the result is not only about scores, but it also includes some wisdom change of my life to become better. Thanks Ms. Vivian!

Miss vivian is a great tutor. She is very attentive to the parts that I don’t understand. She is also very easy to talk to so it makes discussing things I find difficult easier to bring up. She provided the best method for me to learn and score better for muet papers especially in writing essay and speaking parts. She is well spoken and very kind. I can’t thank her enough for all the help that she gave me, with her help I was able to achieve a band 4 in my muet exam when i was only aiming for band 3 initially. She is indeed very intelligent, thoughtful and amazing tutor.

Jordan

Inspiring, motivating and understanding. She have the awareness about my daily life and surrounding so she could adapt it to her timetable, so she could manage it properly for both side so I could cope with her teaching. She thought thoroughly about her teaching scope. In a proficient ways to apply her education strategy to her student. That every minute of her time in educating me counts as efficient and effective for my time. She motivated me by pursuing something more than what i have aimed for. At first, i did not mind to have at least Band 2. But she beg to differ, requested for me to aim higher, at least Band 3. She was very strict about it, because she wants what is best for her student, more chances and opportunity to receive education offers from any institute. So i put my effort by aiming for Band 3. Who could ever thought i got Band 4 in the end but i did! Highly appreciate her teachings as well as her moral guidance in helping me to aim higher and widen my education purpose.

Siti

She gave me proper training as a preparation for the actual exam. That helps me to get good marks in the exam.

Her strictness and teaching discipline is also one of the positive things that has pressured me to do better. She is supportive and flexible when it comes to time management. I could only highlight about how well prepared she is when it comes to her teaching strategies. Overall, Miss Vivian is an excellent english tutor (MUET).

I have an engineering degree from UMS, among the best in my class. I have been tutoring Math here in KK since 2015. I have also been tutoring university engineering students in Engineering Mathematics, Electronics, and Programming. I'm most likely the help you need for your Mathematics, Computer studies, or Engineering Subjects (in Electronics/Computer Engineering).

Tutoring Approach

I always believe any student can perform as good, provided they receive the help they need on right time. What I do in my tutoring is to inspire students and train them with necessary skills (e.g. problem-solving skills) they need for a perticular subject/question, so at least to improve their performance in a way they and parents are happy with their results.

Tutoring Approach

I would usually do a two hours class. An hour of review and another hour of exercise. I encourage students to ask and welcomes question as absurd as it may seems. Discussion about topics are highly appreciated as I prefer a student to shape their own way of thinking rather than accepting fact as it is presented. This is a skill I personally believe is crucially needed in this age.

Bachelor of Arts in Music Study

Experience

Hello and greetings, I'm Kit. I am a UMS (Universiti Malaysia Sabah) graduate with a Bachelor of Art's in Music Study, and I started teaching since I was still a student. throughout the years, I've met many wonderful teachers and students which allowed me to gain experience from them. My strength is that i am observant, as i can determine a proper lesson plan for students according to their level of musicality.

Tutoring Approach

My aims are to make lessons enjoyable and easy to understand. I believe everyone has a different level/sense of musicality. Thus, my approach is to make lessons easy and will be catered according to their needs and understanding. What better way to learn, appreciate and play your favourite songs by picking up a musical instrument like piano? Of course, media will be utilized to enhance the lessons during class. Side note, I do tuition for lower primary (Year 1-3) for English and Bahasa Melayu subjects.
