Science Tutors in Penang : Form 4 - 5 (SPM) / O-Level

Education

Masters Of Informatics , Bachelor's Degree in Electrical and Electronics Engineering

Experience

I have been teaching SPM and IGCSE level Physics, Science and Maths for the past 6 years. My students have since graduated from school and are in the working arena, as well as pursuing their tertiary education in colleges. My years of experience working in the education and electronics industry has enabled me to conduct the following lectures with target audiences ranging from Secondary students, to students pursuing their diploma as well as to corporate clients. These subjects include Introduction to Raspberry Pi Programming, Physics for SPM, Mathematics for SPM, Physics for IGCSE, Mathemathics for IGCSE, Digital Electronics Fundamentals, Fundamentals of Arduino programming as well as C Program fundamentals.

Tutoring Approach

For Secondary school  students, I regularly use simple analogies to describe concepts to my students helping them to understand those concepts rather than memorizing them. I encourage a two-way interaction with my students in order to foster a critical thinking mindset. I also will converse in any language (English, Bahasa Melayu, Hokkien) that is prefered by the student to teach them effectively.  As for the Diploma/Foundation/A-level students, I will often share valuable insights and best known methods from the industry to better equip students at the university level to better prepare themselves for the working world.

Education

PhD in Civil Engineering (University of Bristol)

Experience

Experience in teaching form 4 and 5, and university students. I am always focusing on the student to understand the fundamental of theory rather than just answering the questions by following the step methods. The answers are important, but the way how students answer the questions is more essential. I will teach the students to understand the fundamental of study before they can answer the question. Training drill is also one of the methods that I used to increase the understanding of students on the questions.

Tutoring Approach

I will use all the hours efficiently and give the student great time in lesson. I am easy going person, friendly, and able to adapt to any type of student. I can relate the lesson in secondary school to the real application which the student would learn in future in University. For example, how math can be used to derive some theory in engineering.
