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.

Education

Singapore-Cambridge GCE A Level

Experience

In secondary school, I did voluntary peer-tutoring for Maths and prior to entering university, I was employed by Xceleration Education to teach GCSE Maths, Add Maths, Chem and Bio as well as A Level Maths, Chemistry and Biology. My students successfully obtained As for the abovementioned subjects in their recent IGCSE and A Level exams. I am tutoring part-time while studying in London. I also have experience teaching students with ADHD and can cater to the needs of students with similar conditions.

Tutoring Approach

I aim to provide a solid grounding in the subject while paying close attention to the needs of the individual. I do not demand that students do extra worksheets and homework that are not part of the student's Maths and Science class, but rather, I coach the student in areas of their Maths and Science class that may be difficult such as clarity and depth of comprehension, application of concepts, and test-taking strategies. All that I do is directly related to helping the student to better understand the material from the Maths and Science class that they are taking, and to improve the grade in that class. 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 examples wherever 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 believe passionately in the huge value of tutoring to students and take great satisfaction in seeing my students achieve their full potential.

For students that only require that extra push in boosting their grades, I will spend time correcting their study techniques, method of answering in examinations, as well as improve their time management skills whilst teaching the topic.
