Education

Masters in International Business, Bachelors in Finance

Experience

I am an accomplished subject expert specializing in Principles of Accounting, Mathematics, and Additional Maths. My teaching proficiency extends across diverse exam boards, encompassing SPM (Prinsip Perakaunan, Modern Maths, Add Maths), IGCSE (Accounting, Core/Extended Maths, Add Maths), A-Levels (Accounting), Edexcel GCSE (Accounting and Maths), and STPM (Perakaunan). Possessing a valid teaching permit, I am thoroughly acquainted with the latest KSSM/KBSM syllabi for SPM, IGCSE, and A-Levels. With a commendable track record, I have successfully developed students who attained high distinctions in their respective exam boards. Additionally, I offer short-term tutoring for university students facing challenges in finance, accounting, and business-related subjects. As an educator, I deliver exceptional and tailored learning experiences that effectively address the specific challenges students currently encounter.

Tutoring Approach

I employ a student-centric teaching approach, adapting my guidance to suit the individual skillset of each student. I utilize various methods tailored to the student's level and personally create all teaching materials in a simplified form. Ensuring the success of my students is my primary responsibility, whether through one-on-one sessions or small group classes (with a maximum of 5 students). Additionally, I offer online tutoring for those residing at a distance or preferring the convenience of their own space. In online sessions, I utilize a digital board, providing a similar interactive experience as face-to-face instruction.

Teacher Jay is a very patient and friendly teacher. I didn't understand anything about accounting at first, but she guided me step by step. She made accounting easy to understand. I managed to score A in accounting thanks to her. Teacher is always there to help me even though I ask about things other than exercises such as case study. I am very grateful to have her as my tuition teacher.

Aina Nazurah

I love how teacher Jay makes me feel like its okay to ask questions openly. With my previous tutor, I often had anxiety and was scared to ask questions for fear of looking dumb but with teacher Jay that was not a problem. The way teacher Jay kindly and attentively taught me made me excited to attend classes with her. I would’ve found it hard to have intensive classes before the papers but because teacher Jay tutors so well, it didn’t feel overwhelming and i wasn't dreading the classes!

Mukhriz

She is a very friendly, kind and open teacher. She always helps me to understand more about the subject. She also has a whole database full of old classes, so it's easier for me to back track to previous classes that I've missed. I am very grateful to have had her as my tuition teacher for SPM.

Gladys Rodgers

When we selected Cambridge Accounting as one of my son's A-level Options in January 2020 at his college, we didn't realise that Accounting is one of those subjects where basics in GCSE is preferred. My son had not done Accounting at GCSE. Having just returned to Malaysia after a decade overseas, he had a challenge in his hands from the get-go with adapting to teaching styles here. In spite of being a straight As student at GCSE, he struggled to decode what the lecturer was saying. It soon became obvious that we needed to source someone who could teach Accounting well. We tried one tutor initially but after two lessons my son said it wasn't a good fit. By the time Jay was recommended to is it was already early- April .2020 and my son's ALevel exams were scheduled for October. Jay and my son could not even meet because of all the lockdowns. The entire tutorial sessions were done online. From the very first lesson my son greatly appreciated her practical, exam-orientated style. She certainly had the double task of ensuring his basics were solid plus ensure he had a good grasp of the A-level syllabus. Additionally, with time being scarce, she also had to ensure enough practice and past year practice was done. My son scored a high B at Cambridge's A-Levels. That is truly a lot to cheer about when you take into account the lack of basics he had and learning something totally new online in a very short space of time. He is on his way to University in UK and is very grateful to have had Miss Jay take him through ALevel Accounting. I have no doubt in my mind that they could have hit an 'A' if we had met Jay sooner. Jay has an exam-orientated approach, she covered the Cambridge A-Level Specifications on time, she stuck to her time -table (and if she can't, she informs and replaces the lesson) and she is very familiar with the Cambridge papers. She was also very accomodating with all the queries I had as a parent and took the time to answer the many questions I had. Highly recommended for Accounting.

Arjun Thanabalan

I studied A-levels and had no prior knowledge to accounting. Ms jay helped me understand all the subject matter very efficiently as she is very knowledgeable on the topic. Very determined and pro-active to giving and marking questions.

Preeti

Teacher Jay is patient and strongly believes in all her students to do well in their exams. She's not only a teacher to me but also like a mentor that always motivates me to do better. She's an excellent teacher. She taught me carefully as well as what I should concentrate more to get extra marks. She gives out state trial papers and past year paper so that we can prepare ourselves and give us a rough idea of questions that may come out. She is also very flexible with tuition timings, due to the Covid 19 pandemic she understood how hard it is for students to study online especially for me so she breaks down the usual 2 hour physical class to 1 hour per class online. So I had classes twice in a week. She's a very hardworking teacher as well , not only teach us by topics but help to brush up our basics through modules.

Rafissah

Learning Acc with Teacher Jay so much easier and fun. She teaches you from A-Z and she'll give you some great new tips and techniques that definitely can help you score on your examination. If you have problem on a question, just ask her and she'll teach you how to find the answer right away. She also help me with my mathematics months before SPM. Overall,we did cover all the important topics within the short time. We did most of our classes through Zoom and time management with her was easy.You can also cover the class that you missed by telling her what day you prefer to have it. I definitely 100% satisfied with her tutoring. She's the best!

Neelufer

It was hard for me to understand maths and accounts, but then teacher Jay taught me very well and it was easy to understand both of the subject. She has always been a good teacher, she is a very thoughtful teacher who puts a lot of thought into how she presents the material, even when the pandemic hits. She has her own way to teach... I taught online studying was hard, but teacher Jay has her own materials. She put all her effort to make her students comfortable with online classes. She has been very supportive and motivating me. Thanks teacher!!!

Yin

She’s very good at the subject that she teaches and explains very well. I took accounting with her and she explained every little details until I understand. I also took Mathematics with teacher Jay one week before SPM and she even managed to cover up all the topic for paper 2 in just a week time for me(i had almost 0 knowledge about most ofthe topics) A very dedicated and caring teacher, I would say :). The best teacher i’ve met throughout my whole highschool, even better than private schools teacher. :DD Would recommend teacher Jay for anyone who’s struggling with their studies and there won’t be any regrets.

Rhad Priyaa

As an SPM student at the time, addmaths was indeed a difficult subject for me to grasp. Therefore, it was important to have a tutor who's patient. Lucky for me, mrs jay is not only patient with me but is also willing to explain concepts and questions that I cant understand over and over again until I got the hang of it. Other than that, I personally liked how mrs Jay enforces each lesson with questions to do either as homework or to do on the spot just to make sure I understood the sub topic at hand through and through before moving on to the next. Besides that, I'm really glad that she drilled me with past year papers and state trial papers to make sure I got maximum exposure to all sorts of questions before my SPM examination. Her friendly and approachable persona also makes it really easy for me to ask her questions without a second of hesitation, whether if its regarding the homework tht she had given me during previous lessons or even occasional questions from my school homework which mainly consisted of questions from the textbook. Unlike a few teachers who've I had in the past that had zero faith in my abilities in addmths and had discouraged me over my previous bad grades in tests and exams, mrs Jay actually motivates me to do better after each practice test and blatantly points out my flaws and mistakes and how to overcome them so that I could work on them. The highest grade I got after having mrs Jay as my tutor was 89% which I'd say is a huge improvement for me. I advocate students to not expect overnight magic to happen and do their part by putting in the effort such as making sure their homework is done and doing additional questions in their own time for optimum results.

Darshwana Davida

She's very patient with me and she makesures that I understand whatever she teaches

John

A teacher who does very well in making her students feel comfortable in the learning environment. Does her best in understanding her students' weaknesses and work from there to make sure they understand and excel.

Xin-e Liew

Before attending miss Jay's accounting online classes last September, I knew only about 30% of what I've learnt in school since form 4. Miss Jay went through all the syllabuses with me even though time was short. She's always patient and I can easily understand her teaching as she explains well. Before attending her classes I was barely passing my accounts but now I am confident to score well in SPM. I highly recommend miss Jay to anyone who's looking for an accounting tutor. With her teaching and a little bit of hard work, there's no way you can't improve.

Experience

With an early working background as a trilingual translator, 011-62216066 I was constantly gravitated by the calling of teaching and eventually, by random chances, I was called to teach in formal schools,language academies and tutorial centres. Since then I have been enthusiastically serving a total of 20 years in teaching English,Malay, Chinese covering both international(British, American, Singapore) and national syllabuses, business, drama, literature and customized. The spectrum of my students ranges from multinational private leaners,school students to corporate employees.  

Tutoring Approach

The challenge in tutoring is not about `what-is' but `how-to'. As every learner is different, creativity is undeniably essential to enlighten a frustrated student in a fun, refreshing way of learning instead of hardship. This is my primary aspiration. Hence, teaching is an art, rather than a science. As an astute educator, I empathize, motivate, inspire in  guiding, coaching and training learners to overcome their learning  difficulties. Not limiting to this, I'm always passionately prepared to devise different approaches in handling motivation, discipline and  behaviorial issues. To say the least, I have well-recognized track records  in dealing with various kinds of leanering issues.  Education is a job of giving. You can't give what you don't have. As a person who is eagerly  inquisitive and caring, I passionately enjoy giving and sharing  knowledge and life experience in my job.  Should you have any interest for a better pictures of my teaching, you are cordially invited to visit my facebook (Due to privacy setting, you can add-friend to understand more).As I seldom check my inbox overhere, preferred contact method: WhatsApp/SMS your location, short/long term prior to appointment on phone. Thank you. Happy learning!

Tiffany B. Zhang

We have been 30 months with Sofia now, recommended by our neighbour. My kids are both in junior and high school. Started with one subject, then we added other subjects under my kid's request just because my kid would like to her stay longer. She is getting more and more looking forward to the lessons to spend time with Sofia. It was a progressive journey too, filled with happy moments for my kid ( who is rather hard to manage). Sofia's creativity and character are suitable for my kid. I vouch for Sofia.

I'm a Malaysian business owner with limited formal languages communication skill. I have several English tutors at the same time, but Ms. Lee is the one who can teach me with multilingual explanation. She interviewed me in depth to understand my background so to analyse and gauge a realistic learning expectation with me. She is a strategist. She is also a punctual, dedicated and no-nonsense person. Now, she is also a private tutor for my wife and children.

Kim Ji Hyun

We are 2 Korean brothers studying in Malaysia. My younger brother failed in his English accessment test. As a result, he was unable to enroll into the school. We were recommended by a Korean friend to Ms Lee for English and Chinese home-schooling. My brother is a fun lover and enjoy no-study life. I heard that the korean friend's son became looking forwarding to go to the class of Ms. Lee after 3-month of resistance. So we gave it a try. My brother told me that Ms. Lee is a good teacher and he respects her, although she could be strict sometimes. I thank Ms. Lee because she is a responsible, caring teacher. My parents are in Korea, but we can count on Ms. Lee as our home tutor.

Takanori Suzuki

I'm a Japanese expat in Kuala Lumpur and I was facing critical dilemma of communication in English. Ms. Lee was a responsible tutor and she dedicated to plan and tailored-make a learning syllabus which only for my personal needs - listening and pronunciation. I was a very busy employee so learning progress was not speedy but Ms. Lee was very patient, considerate and professional in guiding and couching me about my difficulties, and i managed to overcome my old habit of strong Japanese accent, at the same time improved in my listening, grammar and vocabulary. Besides, Ms. Lee also helped me a lot with my presentation in which, she is not only having a good background of it, but also a very personable person herself. As a result, I let my wife and son learn from Ms. Lee too. I'm also very thankful for her flexibility in accommodating my busy schedule. She is also punctual person. I highly recommend Ms. Lee if you are looking for a professional private tutor.

Yew Loong

PERSONAL RECOMMENDATION OF TEACHER Anne Duerre. Mrs Anne Duerre has been tutoring my son Yew Loong Ding since July 2023 till date. She has been a part of his journey leading up to his A levels exams which he is currently undergoing. Mrs Anne has been teaching Yew Loong subjects of English Literature and History and she is very meticulous and plans all the lessons well and with utmost care. She has also successfully demonstrated her awareness of different learning styles and adequately adjusted assignments to meet the needs of Yew Loong. Mrs Anne has vast experience in teaching humanities subjects for which she researches online for extra materials and support in order to provide the best learning experience for Yew Loong and she is very passionate about what she does. During the sessions that Yew Loong has with her, she would assign Yew Loong tasks pertaining to English Literature and History which requires him to write based on stipulated exams conditions. That has proven to be helpful in Yew Loong’s preparation for the final A levels. Mrs Anne possesses a calm, serene, enthusiastic and a very motherly personality and has a great rapport with Yew Loong. She also supports him when he is stressed and has a writer’s block . She would often advise him on sound time management when he's assigned a task. She would update me on Yew Loong’s progress frequently to let me know how he is coping with the teaching and learning process and that is very helpful indeed. Mrs Anne has been able to nurture Yew Loong's growth and potential as a student. He has grown tremendously in his writing abilities and skills as well as temperament, the onset he would be easily flustered under pressure of exams however with Mrs Anne's teaching and tutoring methods he has become more self assured in his writing and writes efficiently. I am very pleased with how Mrs Anne has greatly helped Yew Loong reach his potential and I am confident that she will constantly deliver the best to any given student or group of students. She is confident, very knowledgeable and has the skills of a seasoned teacher. I believe that she will continue to grow and become even more effective as a teacher, tutor, mentor with further career opportunities. Sincerely, Dr Shamani Thavamalar Vellapandian Mum of Yew Loong Ding

I really like the way she made me feel comfortable especially with the things that I did not understand. Also, I like the way how she is confident with the way she teaches which in turn makes me confident with what I am learning. That is how I know that it is worth it to take classes with her. She adapts her teaching based on how the student is so that she knows the pace to go with a student. I would definitely recommend her to any other IELTS student to take her classes! She will give you extra exercises to ensure that you really understand the lesson and she will give extra time to explain as well. She is dedicated, meticulous, hardworking and her rates are definitely affordable with what she is offering.

She was generous in giving homework, which is very helpful to keep in right track. From Band 6 in writing, I have improved to Band 7.5! I was quite nervous with my Speaking, and she guided me on how to speak confidently. She was kind to add the extra group which was very useful for my Speaking. I would strongly recommend her to anyone who is keen on taking up IELTS.

Madam Anne has helped me improve greatly from being a very poor student to a very good student, she is very helpful, hardworking, patient, dedicated to teach eventhough sometime when she is sick, she is also strict to make that I do all my homework daily. I studied with her the past 4 months everyday for my MUET exam to achieve a band 5. When I first started, I scored only band 2, now I have improve to a band 5. Thanks to Madam Anne. I strongly recommend Madam Anne to any student who is weak and poor in MUET and any area of English. Thank you Madam Anne for helping me the past 4 months.

I needed an experienced IELTS tutor who could properly guide me for my exam. Madam Anne provided the tools and method for achieving my desired Band. She gave additional group classes, additional time of the hourly classes and she was really helpful, intelligent & patient as well as dedicated. I would definitely recommend madam Anne to students who wish to take IELTS exam.

I really enjoy classes with Madam Anne. I only had two weeks to prepare for muet and she was able to cover the whole syllabus. She was very knowledgeable in muet format and gave me plenty of tips that could help me during the exam. She is also rich in general knowledge as I learn new things in every class. She was also kind and welcoming lady, if your a shy person or anyone planning to take muet definitely recommend. Thank you madam Anne for help.

She is a positive, responsible and dedicated teacher. She is generous in giving extra classes and hours. She likes to give a lot of homework and yet all of them are very beneficial in improving my overall English knowledge and IELTS examination preparation. Most importantly, she is as kind as an angel as she always be patience with my sometimes 'difficult attitude'. The fees given are very affordable with the quality of the service. She gives me advice about life besides education advice. She also includes a lot of free group classes in my packages. I would like to recommend her to the other students.

Bachelor in Language and Linguistics

Experience

I have more than 10 years experience in teaching adult and international school mandarin. In the past 10 years, i have tutored over 100 students of different ability levels which are mostly expatriates and international students ranging from 6 yr old to 60 yr old. Besides daily and conversational Mandarin, I’m also trained in preparing students for various International Mandarin examinations such as IB, HSK, YCT, SAT II Chinese, IGCSE, GCSE, GCE etc. 

Tutoring Approach

When tutoring students, i seek first to understand the students to know how they find the subject. I find it  important to have a good rapport and communication with  students to be able to understand how they view the subject and the difficulties in it. By understanding students’ weakness, working individually with them is hence more effective to help them develop on a different learning curve. My goal is to meet students where they are and take them where they need to go.

Rakhma

Found Uztaz Ayman on myprivatetutor. Decided to reach out to him based on the excellent reviews given. Uztaz Ayman has been teaching my 10 year old from the beginning of this year. My daughter loves his teaching approach and finds his learning method easy to understand. My personal observation on him is that he is an avid teacher and knows how to ensure his student grasp the subject effectively while making the learning fun at the same time.

Norliza

Ustaz is efficient and meticulous in his methodology. He is patient but at the same time his lessons are always enlightening. My son is not an easy student but ustaz Ayman tries his best to motivate and encourage him.

Aliyah Baharuddin

I got to know Ustaz Ayman through myprivate tutor and I must say he is a wonderful influencer as teacher and educator to my 2 teen-agers. Knowledgeable, competent, well mannered, trustworthy and reliable teacher. Kids nowadays needs a firm strict teacher with a friendly approach and he is one. Fluent in English he conducts his classes professionally and nurtures the kids the right way when he teaches them Qur'an and Islamic studies. My 2 boys used to take online classes during the pandemic and now it's one to one home tuition and I usually listen to most of the classes, surprisingly the kids manage to learn how to read Qur'an by themselves after learning the Arabic language foundation classes (I am so proud of them) and that is thanks to Ustaz Ayman. I highly recommend him as an Arabic language, Islamic studies and Qur'an teacher. I have to mention that he treats the kids with brithday cakes when one of the kids birthday comes . Thumbs up and 5 stars rating is well deserved for him. May Allah bless him.

Wan

Lessons are engaging. Both the micro and macro aspects of learning are sequentially blended in each unit taught.

Zoey

Teacher Ayman loves teaching very much and have passion for teaching. He's competent and highly qualified. He also make sure to teach the students about the culture in order to understand about the Arabic language. He gives extra time in class as he's a responsible teacher to make sure we understand things well. He's always punctual and very recommended. I enjoy open topic, stress free and fun classes with Mr Ayman.

Ct

A passionate and experienced tutor, who is engaging and provides in depth explanation of concepts. He tutors my 4 children ages between 5 and 14. They come out of their lessons excited, and able to apply knowledge learnt. They look forward to their lessons each week, and have fun recounting their lessons after each one. That to me is a sign of a great tutor! Highly recommended.

Ahmad

Ustaz Ayman is a a very excellent and dedicated teacher. His method of teaching is the best and easy to understand. I can write in arabic within a month using his method of teaching. I highly recommended Ustaz ayman if u want to learn Arabic in the correct way and fun way.

Bilol

Mr Ayman is a very dedicated and excellent teacher. He is quite punctual and takes his duties very seriously. I have two kids (17 and 15 years old) taking Arabic classes for a month now and I hope this will be a continuous process that will end up with both kids speaking fluent Arabic in the near future. I am sure, like my kids, there will be many more students that will get the benefit of having Mr Ayman as their teacher. Thank you, Mr Ayman!

Dr

A few moths back, I was looking for an Arabic Language tutor as my 9 year old son was losing interest and confidence in learning Arabic Language. And amazingly, Mr Ayman within a few weeks has restored my son's confidence and interest in the language. Within a few classes too, my son started to construct Arabic sentences which was amazing for me to hear! Mr Ayman's method is comprehensive and fun. He teaches reading, writing, speaking - all at the same time. He is a super dedicated teacher who really gives 100% in his class and expects his students to give 100% too. I have no doubt that Insha Allah my son would be able to master this language under the guidance and tutorship of Mr Ayman!

Rafidah Bt Atan

Ayman is an excellent arabic teacher. He is passionate about the subject and seems highly experienced. He tactfully combines reasonable expectations and supportive nature when it comes to ensuring student progress. Ayman is very professional in his dealings with us and takes his role as tutor seriously. He is punctual and reliable which is excellent role modelling for our child. I'm very happy with our decision to appoint him as Arabic tutor for our 8 year old son. Thank you Ayman.

Sahar

Ustaz Ayman has a friendly approach specially towards kids, he is a professional, competent and knowledgeable teacher. Speaks English very well with no slang or accent. My kids (a boy and a girl) are happy learning Arabic language and Qur'an from a native speaker like ustaz Ayman, he makes them know how to recite , speak, read and write properly. From my observation during the class his translation ( tafseer) for the ayat is simple and understandable by the kids as he is using English. Finally, he changes reasonable fees, he gives more than what he is paid for. Highly recommended. Thanks for myprivate tutor to introduce me to such an excellent teacher.

George

First and foremost i signed up with Arabic language classes with Mr. Ayman before Covid 19 pandemic based on the reviews written here, and to be completely honest i wasn't disappointed at all, i was very impressed how professional, knowledgeable and structured he is. I am still learning with Ayman online nowadays and his online lessons as much efficient as the home one to one classes, he makes sure that i receive the learning material by email or WhatsApp and answers any question i ask him outside the learning sessions. I must say that during this 4 or 5 months duration i am able to read, write and speak Arabic way better than many of my friends who have been learning since few years. Mr. Ayman is very punctual and on time when he comes to my house or online . I have to mention also that the classes fees are very reasonable as he charges RM 80/ hour for home tuition, and online he charges RM 60 which is very cheap. Highly recommended teacher with such friendly approachable personality.

Alyssa

Professional and has a structured method of teaching.

Alif

His commitment. Can be seen through his punctuality(he is never late) and by his preparedness for each lesson.

Nur Farah

Well experience and a very good tutor. Very professional and punctual. Speaks well English and a very considerate person. He take pride and enjoys teaching also helps me to understand better.

Kenneth

My tuition class with Mr. Ayman was excellent, he encouraged active participation which I found very conducive to learning. Mr. Ayman was always early to our classes which were held at my apartment. Mr. Ayman is a very conscientious teacher always concerned about his students progress and always willing to help his students at anytime. I truly enjoyed my classes with him and look forward to more classes with him in the near future.

Melwinder Gill

He’s very structured and manages to handle a class of 3 people really well - especially since all 3 of us have varying degrees of understanding and experience with the language. I’m really impressed at the pace that I’ve managed to pick up the basics of the language since I’ve had no prior experience whatsoever.

Azri

I initially signed up for classes with Ayman to learn Arabic and Quran. After 12 sessions (3x a week), I have the basic grasp of the Arabic language with my vocabulary bank expanding at an unprecedented rate. Ayman has also helped me with my quran reciting and tajwid which has allowed me to recite the Quran smoother. Ayman has also helped me pronounce the different Ha, Haa, Kha better... A problem I have always had. Now on my second month, we are starting to create useful sentences to use in everyday life. Utilizing the vocabulary, verbs, and grammar. Having experienced the first 12 lessons and seeing results, I have also started lessons for my daughter to learn arabic. I studied arabic for 3 years many years ago in highschool but never managed to grasp the language at all. I am impressed at what Ayman is able to do for me in the first month. He is very passionate, punctual and patient. He will have an answer to all questions you may have. The cost of the class is very reasonable and justified from the results that is seen. I highly recommend for those who intends to learn or relearn Arabic and for those who wants to read the Quran and understand. He bakes a fantastic moist chocolate cake too. What else could you ask for?

Juwairiah

He is very good with children and you can see that he enjoys teaching kids. Mirabelle likes Ayman very much and she is comfortable with him. sometimes he gives her chocolates as incentive.

Aminah

In the name of God, Most Gracious, Most Compassionate My 5-year old daughter started with Mr Ayman early June 2019. I found him via this website after my first quick search and I am very glad I found him. I was looking for an Arabic native tutor who has years of experience teaching young non-native children as it requires a lot of patience and different sets of teaching skills in handling young children. He is very organized, punctual for the sessions, honest and take pride in his teaching. He knows how to teach children as young as 5 years old and he is straight forward in his approach. He comes prepared for every session with teaching notes and homework. He has his own sets of teaching materials and I find his teaching materials better than the official teaching materials for the local students in Saudi Arabia where my daughter goes to school. He speaks English very well. So it makes teaching easy for my daughter as English is her first language. His fee is very reasonable considering the fact that he is a native speaker and he comes to my house for the sessions.

Mohd

He is definately professional in his approach to the subject and committed to the tutorship. He ensures understanding of the student during lessons and is always punctual. Easily approachable during or after lessons and does responds fast to any questions posed.

Nizam N Rabia Makdum

He is a very professional teacher, punctual, reliable, explains well, very good knowledge and has excellent teaching methods. I went from Australia to receive lessons from him and was thoroughly worth it. And I would recommend him to anyone wanting to learn Arabic and general about Islam.

Fareh

Mr Ayman is a passionate educator. He is an experienced, provides clarity to the lessons’ objectives and utilities multiple teaching methods that suit his student’s needs. There is a remarkable improvement to the learning progress of my son’s Arabic Language under the tutorial of Mr Ayman. He is very organized and professional, setting good vibes for his students to emulate.

Faezah

Ayman has been tutoring my boys (12 & 8) Arabic and Quran (with Tafseer) for over 1 month, now and Alhamdulillah they have shown much progress, especially in their pronunciation. Most importantly, they enjoy their lessons! The boys will start reading & writing in Arabic soon and we look forward to their continued progress under Ayman.

Maha

From my experience with my kid, he is very gentle and understanding, my daughter loves Arabic now because of the way he is teaching her.

VC

He is punctual, professional and the lessons are always filled with new things to learn. He also encourages you to have a discipline of reviewing the lessons and self-study in order for you to move forward and to improve quickly. He doesn't hesitate to encourage the student to ask questions.

Sahar

I would say that Mr Ayman is a very professional, highly qualified, friendly and knowledgeable person. He always gives more than he suppose to, regarding time and information, and he will go hand by hand till he makes sure the student fully understands the class. Either it's Arabic language or Quran and Islamic studies, he has been teaching to my kids, he makes sure that they digested all the information, in a simple easy way by going to their level ( he is very kind with kids). Trust me on that, kids are more difficult to teach than adults. I would also like to add that the fees paid for the classes are worth it and the charges are very reasonable compared to other subjects. Sadly we are leaving Malaysia soon as my husband has been reassigned, else he will our permanent private tutor for the kids.

Abby Abdul Aziz

His explanation on Islamic Studies is comprehensive and clear. Everything is done in English, similar to a classroom learning. He is good in keeping my young children focused and entertained by using different approach of learning ie listening, writing, memorizing, practical, telling stories etc. Uztaz Ayman is also punctual and flexible on the tuition program.

Anwar

Mr. Ayman is a friendly, professional, and first-grade A+ teacher who follows unconventional teaching methods, bringing Arabic language learning process in an easy way to the student. Wide knowledge of Islamic studies when a topic pops up during the class. Highly recommended as a native speaker.

Maggie

I found Mr. Ayman to be very professional and dedicated individual. He has a passion for teaching and has a way with kids - which is exactly what I am looking for. With patience, Ayman was able to guide my kids well and now they are able to read, speak and write fluently. They are now able to understand and have grown to love the language (which they had always dreaded in the past). Found his unconventional ways of teaching to be a breath of fresh air compared to what I was accustomed to (other tutors are just blindly following the school syllabus). Would highly recommend him if you are looking to learn the language.

Naif

If you're looking to learn Arabic, and what more, from a native speaker, you're search is over. Mr.Ayman is the teacher you're looking for. Mr Ayman is punctual, patient, conscientious, and cares deeply for his students. He will make sure you grasp what he's teaching. He stresses on the big 3: writing, speaking and listening. The grammar he can teach you later. Language, being a skill, is something you have to do over and over, and Mr.Ayman is the best guide for you in your Arabic journey. Learning a language, I would imagine could be a very dry endeavour, but Mr.Ayman will make you fall in love with the Arabic language. He also throws in Quranic lessons for free if you're interested. I cannot recommend him enough. You will get your money's worth, I can guarantee you that. I'm proud to not only call him my teacher, but also a friend and someone I look up to.

Nor Afiqah Abdullah

Mr. Ayman is a good teacher. The way that he teached is easy to understand for a beginner like me. I am learning much more than just Arabic. He always on time and never late to our tutor session. He always dedicated to make sure I can learn the language well. His knowledge in Arabic is very good, considered that he is a native speaker. For me I think if someone want to learn Arabic, they should see a native speaker who have teaching experience. Rather than local teacher who only copy paste what they have learned. The fee is reasonable with the service given. Within an hour I can learn so much and it is worth the money. He also give more than what I paid for. He also very nice and respectful towards others. Which a must characteristic for private tutors. In conclusion, he is one of the best Arabic teacher that I have that actually do what he said. Very recommended for beginners.

Experience

Reach me directly on Fb ujoelee. Oder schick mir eine Nachricht, 0 1 3 7 4 9 9 6 8 5 ist die Nummer. I speak English, German, Cantonese, Malay, and basic Mandarin.

GERMAN: "I help A Level students pass their German language exams to prepare for study in Germany."

Since 2018 I have prepared more than 100 A Level students for their Cambridge AS Level German exam (Papers 1, 2, 3), of which two received Top in Malaysia award for the November 2020 examination series. I have also tutored beginners starting from zero to learn German for the Goethe A1, A2, and B1 exams. With a C1 in the Goethe-Zertifikat proficiency exam and having scored 5.5.4.5 in the TestDaF exam myself, I can share with you from my personal experience important exam techniques to deal with  Goethe and TestDaF tasks and questions.

ENGLISH: "I help English learners improve their speaking and vocabulary to communicate better at work, at school, and in social situations."   

Since 2012 I have taught English to secondary school and college students as well as adults.

CANTONESE: "I help non-Cantonese speakers practice conversation to connect better with their friends, colleagues, and clients in the local community, and I also help semi-speakers revive their language skills to reconnect with their family heritage."

Driven by a burning passion to keep my heritage language alive, I am glad to help others learn conversational Cantonese through speaking practice.

Tutoring Approach

Online, with notes, written exercises, listening and speaking live. Let me know your target, we work together to achieve it. We start with the sound system of the language, then go to basic grammar, sentence structure and word understanding step by step. I use a communicative, interactive approach based on your needs. When we talk about things important to you, you practice, absorb, and activate what we cover in the lesson, whether it's a grammar topic or functional language. For German we can do exam preparation techniques or focus on specific skills building (speaking, listening, writing, reading) depending on what you want. For spoken English and Cantonese the learning focus will be on dialogues and conversation topics.

Alyson

I started learning German with Lee since about six months ago and am now at B1-ish level. Lee is a great teacher; he provides really useful and productive exercises which he goes through with you in every class. His style of teaching is full of clarity and he manages to explain the complex aspects of the language really well. What I especially like is that we would have normal, everyday conversations in German before we go into learning the more technical stuff. He is also great with jokes and his classes feels nothing like the regular rigid "classes", which can end up to be quite boring. If you're looking to learn German efficiently and quickly from scratch, look no further!

Koay

Patient, kind and generous! Mr. U Joe guided me step by step from zero to A1 – he’d always explain in detail, making sure you would understand. He is familiar with the Goethe Institute syllabus and will prep you more than enough for each section of the exam. His materials are always fun and engaging yet challenging. Mr. U Joe never got impatient with me if I ever forgot a word or something that has been taught previously. He is always there for me along the way, answering any questions of mine. Most of all, he cracks good dad jokes!

I am of British national, staying in the UK and learning online piano lessons with Donovan. Great start, great teacher! Good first piano lesson with Donovan today.

Ashira Malka

I am learning online Mandarin (Kung Fu specialism) with Donovan; and I am a US citizen residing in the US. I have studied many languages with many teachers and his lessons are stellar and outstanding! He is very organized and tailored the lessons to my interest – which means his lessons really held my interest! Donovan is indeed an excellent teacher in many ways: He is fun, bright, attentive and as detail-oriented as you want to be! You get to pick your own level of detailed orientation within your own lessons and it can even vary lesson-by-lesson; I have never met a teacher like this before!

Joshua Chun Wah Kam

I am a doctorate student at an American University, currently doing a piece of research and writing a dissertation on Asian food, which requires the use of Cantonese. Donovan is an incredibly diligent, thoughtful, prepared tutor. His online Cantonese course is like a classroom experience, and he is both prepared for the course material as well as willing to follow up on more complex questions for the next lesson. His teaching style is adaptable to the needs of students (in my case, Cantonese lessons - I have a very specific research focus and he has been more than willing to accommodate). In addition, he blends some elements of traditional Chinese education with a western outlook and pedagogical style. Would highly recommend him.

Marc

I am a senior partner of a German law firm based in Germany; and I have been taking online legal English (English for lawyers) lessons from Mr. Donovan. I often travel between Germany and Kuala Lumpur for work purpose and his online lessons match this requirement. He is a very reliable teacher who listens to exactly what I want. He takes time for my questions and uses very good learning materials. We always have interesting discussions. This makes the lessons fun.

Steve

A positive and patient piano instructor that makes me feel good and tailors the online piano classes to my style. Mr Donovan is doing a great job in helping me to prepare for the piano examination of the Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music (ABRSM), London. In fact, I sat for and passed my ABRSM Initial Grade Piano Exam with the highest ranking of distinction on the first attempt, after having just seven lessons with Donovan. And I am based in the US and often travel to Beijing, China for work purpose. Highly recommended.

I am an adult enrolled in this mandarin class with Mr. Donovan. I am currently working in a medical field which requires me to speak to mandarin speaking clients. I took medical chinese language classes with Mr Donovan, it is conducted online which is convenient as I have a tight schedule due to work. Based on the classes with Mr Donovan, I can vouch that he is very passionate about teaching. Every class that he delivers are concise and he provides suitable materials for you to learn before classes. He is able to draw your attention by making the class more captivating in various ways. His professionalism is commendable because of the way he conducts the classes on time and well mannered in guiding me. Online classes with Mr Donovan are both practical and extremely convenient. I would recommend to anyone who needs to learn mandarin (At any level of mandarin and age) with Mr Donovan.

I am an adult learner who have been taking online class for piano practical high grade- Trinity syllabus for two months with Mr Kwan. I am a piano teacher. I teach piano beginner. I am looking to upgrade my qualification to higher grade before I take Mr Kwan lesson. His online lesson match my lifestyle, because I am busy and do not have time to travel to music center for piano lesson, I am glad to have online piano lesson to ease my burden to travel long way to music center. He is knowledgeable and will tell the story of the music score I am going to work on, help me to analysis the score for better music interpretation. He is generosity in extra lesson time given to me in his teaching. Song books/learning material given to me is good and organized.

Patient, experience and knowledgeable. He will tell the story of the music /song before I start to learn the song, and analysis score for me, this help me interpret the music deeper when I am playing. He will suggest alternative way of practice the song such as using the block chords method to make the practice more efficient.

I am an adult who has been taking piano classes online with Mr Donovan for the past 3 months Engagement during class, very patient and helpful in helping me understanding throughout the class. He is also very flexible in accommodating with my timing besides his busy schedule. I am able to play confidently despite having learned from him 3 months ago. I will definitely pass on the message to recommend him to my friends who would want to take up the piano.

Irfan

I am an adult. Working in the automotive sales industry. I am learning Spoken Cantonese from Mr Kwan. The lessons provided is through online video call. It’s been 3 months already since I started to learn from him. Before I join Mr Kwan’s Lessons, my knowledge of Cantonese was completely zero. After a while, I noticed that I could possibly understand my colleagues speaking to each other. it’s not that much, but that is what i can say good progress for me. I feel there is so much improvement week after week. this has been useful in my daily working life. Online lessons from Mr Kwan are very effective. Mr Kwan’s passion, commitment, dedication, patience, flexibility in lesson rescheduling, communication (clarity in lesson delivery), organization (notes/learning material given to me), professionalism (manners in speaking, answering my doubts and replies; timeliness in starting lessons), generosity in extra lesson time given to me in his teaching is way up to the standard and unexpected. His styles of teaching i.e. friendliness, engagement, hands-on & practical approach are very straightforward and easy to communicate. In conclusion, I would highly recommend Mr Kwan to be your Cantonese teacher. I believe his other lessons will definitely be the same standard and teaching style as well.

My 13 years old son, Adam is learning Mandarin with Mr Kwan. Adam is from Chinese mixed family who doesn't speak Chinese. That is why I went trough FB and found Mr Kwan. Mr Kwan makes Adam feels so comfortable and focus on what his teaching. I was impressed with the quality of his tutoring sessions. After the 5 -10 lessons from Mr Kwan finally now Adam can watch Chinese show with me and he understands and can speak Chinese in a very proper way. Adam really enjoy his Chinese class with Mr Kwan. He is really good to make someone focus on his class yet fun to learn!

Very thorough in preparation of teaching materials and very attentive to details. I'm currently a student of Master's degree in MBA, studying English with Kwan. The teaching materials prepared are highly useful and relevant to my MBA Course. I can easily understand the teacher's teaching, the teacher communicated clearly and effectively to me. My 3 children, including a secondary school student, are currently learning with Kwan too. He is very patient with them. Lessons are fun and inspiring. Kwan also give me and my children much extra lesson time for each lesson. I and my children can easily understand the teacher's teaching very well. Teacher is able to pinpoint weaknesses, give advices and improve them. Thus, from my point of view, Kwan is very qualified and experience in teaching English to varied English levels of various learners. He is very dedicated and responsible educator who genuinely care about students' learning. I highly recommend Kwan for almost any level of English learning. Bravo!

Vinod

He is very dedicated to the teachings. He allots extra time on all lessons to make sure the student really grasps the weeks lesson, making it easy to practice over the week till the next lesson. I am an adult residing in Kuching , Sarawak and he is from KL, yet his online classes are so good that it is like having a real teacher beside you. He uses excellent audio visual equipment for his teachings so all online classes have been extremely smooth and with no communication disruptions. His years of experience serves well as he is able to render the lesson and acknowledge the mistakes instantly and provide immediate rectification. I enjoy my classes with him and hope to learn the piano in record time under his tutelage.

Tutoring Approach

Summary 1. Language Placement Tet 2. Understand the specific needs of students 3. Design relevant and effective syllabus 4. Deliver lecture and observe the development of learners 5. Make changes when possible according to feedback 6. Make sure that the lecture is delivered in enjoyable and effective manner. For language teaching, it is important to take care of the usage of language (grammar, vocabulary), cultural and social aspects and the pedagodical methods when transfering the knowledge to the students. General and specific usage intended to be used by the students when commanding the language will be taken into consideration. To strengthen the memory and impact of learning, appropriate stimulation method has to be used including activities, graphic etc.  Many people take language learning too easy and think that it can be managed in short time. Unless you are a genius, it's very rare for a person to be proficient in a language with just 10 - 20 hours of learning. Experience and research shown that to complete a typical CEFR (Common European Framework of Reference for Languages) level will need at least 80 to 200 hours. There is no short cut in learning a language and students have to be patient and know what you want for sure. Or else, it will be a waste of time and money.

Education

Ph.D in Medical Science, B.Sc. Hons. in Pharmaceutical Chemistry.

Experience

I've been teaching Chemistry since 2009, covering various levels like SPM, IGCSE, AISM, GCSE (9-1), STPM, A-Levels, CPU, IB, CIMP, SAT, AUSMAT, and Foundation.

I also cover Pharmaceutical Chemistry and Pharmaceutical Analysis modules for undergraduate level.

My students consistently show significant improvement, with most scoring A* and A+ or a 6 or 7 in IB Chemistry.

I offer bespoke one to one or group lessons via online or face to face.

I've taught at various institutions including Marist Educare, Dignity for Children Organization, Isberne International School of Berne, and KPJ University College.

Let's make Chemistry learning practical, enjoyable and effective.

Tutoring Approach

I tailor my classes to each student's unique learning pace, comprehension level, preferred style, and specific needs. Completing the syllabus at least three months ahead of major exams, I offer intensive revision classes and practice sessions with past trial papers nearing exams, ensuring significant improvement. I sharpen the analytical skills alongside. Hands on practical sessions can be arranged for home schooling students.

Instead of memorizing, I guide students to understand the concepts and train them with applicative exercises. This allows them to enjoy the subject instead of being suffocated by it. 

In addition to face to face/group classes, I extend online sessions through Google Meet and Zoom, particularly for those outside KL/Malaysia. Many students prefer this format for its convenience—they can record sessions for later review.

Whether in-person or online, expect a personalized and well-crafted education plan, ensuring guaranteed improvement for you or your child.

Ms Sylvia is fantastic! Her lessons make tough topics easy to understand, and she is always there to help. I used to find Chemistry tricky, but now it's one of my favorite subjects thanks to her teaching. Super grateful for such an amazing teacher!

Sasha

Very good experience with Ms Joanne , she simplifies the topic so that it only takes a few minutes to understand. She regularly checks questions and always responds to any questions I have even after tuition sessions.

Chrisvyn

I have learnt from Ms Slyvia for 9 months and it was truly an amazing experience. She has helped me enjoy doing chemistry now that I understand it well. There was also a significant improvement in my results that I jumped from a C to an A* in A Levels. She provides comprehensive notes with sufficient exercise for each topic that helped me master each one completely. She is also very approachable and understanding when she answers all the questions I have patiently and makes sure I fully understand the concepts.

Reia

Sylvia's an excellent tutor who helped me understand a chemistry topic I was struggling with. She ensured all parts of the syllabus were covered and that I understood them. Her notes were concise and helpful. After tutoring me, I managed to get an A+ on the chemistry test that tested the topic I was originally weak in. Now, I've graduated and the subject I did best in (19/20 credits) was chemistry ? Only issue was scheduling. It was a bit unpredictable and sometimes there were last minute changes to our classes. However, all was ok because the classes got replaced ? Thanks!

I had the privilege of attending IB Chemistry HL tuition classes with Ms. Sylvia for approximately six months, and I can confidently say that the experience was nothing short of exceptional. Ms. Sylvia provided invaluable notes and delivered lessons that were clear, concise and focused on crucial exam content. Ms. Sylvia's teaching style stands out for its simplicity and efficiency. She covered a significant amount of material in each session, ensuring a thorough understanding without unnecessary details. This helped me grasp the material more quickly and facilitated a smoother transition to practicing with past papers for additional reinforcement.

Christina Ong

I enjoyed her classes which were very structured and she gave very good, summarized notes which were helpful whilst studying. She also tailored our classes to what we needed to focus on and improve and through her classes, my grade for Chemistry improved greatly from C to an A.

Ashlynn

Dr Sylvia always explained concepts in a clear, understandable manner and taught real life applications of chem to make it more interesting. Her notes were really helpful and concise as well.

Raashi Agarwal

Ms Sylvia explained the concepts of Chemistry in a very understanding and creative manner. She always spent an adequate amount of time on each topic and gave us the right amount of practice before moving to the next topic. Her detailed notes helped me a lot and she was always willing to help me with concepts that I was confused with outside of lesson time as well.

Ming Yao

She has a very good teaching style that allows me to fully understand the topic even when it was one of my weakest ones and always made the lessons very interactive and engaging.

Emma

She provided a good foundation in the basics of chemistry which helped me apply them when learning the different chapters. She explained all the chemistry concepts well and I could understand them quicker than in school. She also provided good workbooks and test papers for me to practise on.

Kush B

I have attended tuition classes with Ms Sylvia for about 6 months for my A-Levels. While I feel I have worked hard enough in Chemistry, Ms Sylvia has worked double - in our starting weeks, Ms Sylvia provided us with handwritten notes on chapters we felt we had a weaker grasp on, which helped me immensely. Ms Sylvia's classes were engaging, as her explanations were simple enough for me to understand each lesson. With every revision of past papers Ms Sylvia asked us to finish, I could understand where and why I was going wrong with greater ease. I felt confident giving my Chemistry exams and I have Ms Sylvia to thank for everything. I would definitely recommend her to anyone interested in attending extra coaching for Chemistry. Thank you so much again Ms Sylvia!

Marisa

Lessons are very straight to the point and easy to remember. There are no long winded detailed explanations, only the information you will need for your exams. Notes are easy to understand and simple. A lot of material is taught in an hour of class so the learning process isn't dragged and doing pass year papers can start quicker for more practice.

Shrut Silakari

Utmost familiarity with the curriculum. Constantly making sure there are no additions to the syllabus that we didn't miss, and not realiant on the class teacher. Basically, if you join her class(in time) then you will be prepared enough to compete among the highest scorers in Chemistry in the world. Efficiency of the classes is also very high.

Gabriel

Thank you for helping me throughout the A-level Chemistry examinations. Because of your patience and encouragement, I am able to achieve A* in my A-Level Chemistry. You are the teacher who inspired me to go above and beyond, took your time, and ensured I am on the right track.

Amyrathul Munyra

She made the class a safe environment to learn in. Whenever I got a concept or a question wrong she will patiently explain. The class was always very interactive and fun allowing me to not be as tense. With her help, i can say that my grades improved significantly during my A2 year as that’s when she started teaching me.

Ilhaam

All the classes were really good, for topics i had trouble in she would prepare her own notes for me and make me understand really well step by step from the basics. Her explanations were very easy to comprehend. Furthermore, she would make time to have extra classes when I needed and, she knew the A- level syllabus very well and what key points to remember for the exam questions in past papers.

Priyaa Thiru

She is someone who I can communicate easily with. I am not afraid to ask her questions and she teaches in detail. She goes through everything thoroughly and she really prepared me for my IGCSE exam. Because of her intensive tuition classes, I have done very well for my IGCSE chemistry.

Lisah

I'm really impressed with Sylvia Joanne of IB HL Chemistry and mode of delivery, I'll highly recommended she to parents whose kids need help with IB chemistry . My son had a lot of question and needed help to understanding basic concept , Sylvia Joanne not only clarified his understanding, but also developed a really good rapport with him that has strengthened his confidence .

Education

Cambridge CELTA, Bachelor of Laws (Hons)

Experience

A full-time tutor and native speaker of English, I specialise in teaching English for both exam preparation and communicative purposes. Over the last eight years, I’ve taught students of all levels and ages, accumulating more than 4,000 hours doing so. At the same time, I've also worked with students of various ethnicities and cultural backgrounds, with many of my students coming from countries like Korea, China, Japan, India, Vietnam, Thailand, Malaysia, Saudi Arabia, Libia, and the Netherlands. My extensive experience in language teaching has not only enabled me to easily adapt my material and teaching style to suit a wide range of learners, but it has also allowed me to quickly identify the unique strengths and weaknesses of each student.

Additionally, my familiarity with scoring and technique requirements of exams like IELTS, IGCSE and Checkpoint mean that I’m able to offer dedicated courses for each of these exams. In terms of my formal qualifications, I am certified by the University of Cambridge under the English teaching programme CELTA, and I hold a Bachelor of Laws (Honours) from Bristol Law School. Further certification by Dyslexia International and University College London (UCL) also allows me to assist children with learning difficulties, such as ADHD and Dyslexia. Presently, I am in the process of completing the prestigious Cambridge DELTA course to further enhance my ability to offer effective and highly personalised English lessons.  

Tutoring Approach

An initial assessment is conducted to help determine a student’s level of proficiency and identify areas for improvement. A personalised study plan is then provided to let students know their strengths and weaknesses as well as the time it would take for them to achieve their goals. I always welcome feedback to ensure that the materials I use are suitable for the learner and that it matches with their expectations of the lessons.

Exam Candidates

  • In order to help students understand what is expected of them in an exam, I work closely with the scoring requirements of that exam. Once students are familiar with the marking criteria, we practise applying that knowledge in a series of practice questions and past papers. At the same time, model answers and lots of materials for self-study are provided to ensure students are able to make progress outside of our lessons. Challenging areas are given more attention, while a systematic approach is used to reduce mistakes and improve response quality over time. I find that one of the reasons why many students fail to succeed in exams is because they are unsure of what is expected of them or how an examiner might view their work. My approach guides them in this area.

Language Learners

  • Believing that language learning should never be contained within a textbook or the four walls of a classroom, my approach focuses on language aspects that are relevant and immediately applicable to a person’s daily life. In this way, students have a greater chance of remembering and using what they’ve learnt in lessons. Meanwhile, a heavy emphasis is placed on aspects like vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation, as I believe these to be the core of language learning and necessary for long-term improvement. In order to improve fluency, students should expect to engage in relaxed discussions on up-to-date topics that match their interests, while occasional role-plays or games will be used to practise vocabulary or grammar. Rest assured that my lessons are always detailed and thorough, with practice and error correction given by the end of each lesson to solidify learning.

I have been taking English classes with Timothy twice a month since 2019 mainly to practice speaking and pronunciation. Timothy is a very friendly and patient teacher. He always explains difficult vocabulary by giving me different examples. I'm also having business English class with him, and he will ensure I have different topic for discussion in each class.

Timothy guides Hanis to construct sentences using sensory details. He invokes her mind to think out of the box and write descriptively. His gentle demeanour and encouraging approach makes her comfortable to relate to him. Her essays have improved tremendously under his tutelage. Even her Y6 class teacher is impressed with her progress.

Yukiko

I’ve been taking Timothy’s English lesson once a week for 2 years. I highly recommend his lesson. He always tries to identify what is my weakness/ strength in English, and points them out precisely. Thanks to his pertinent feedback, I can feel rest assured with my English now.

I needed to take IELTS last minute, for my work visa application. I was panicking and worried because it was unexpected and I only had short duration of time. I'm thankful that i managed to find Timothy on Myprivate Tutor. He is extremely patient. I went through a few classes with him before the exam. He provided all the materials and gave me some examples on how the exam would be like. In the end, I got higher than the expected grades, which was according to Tim’s assessment. Here I would highly recommend anyone who need a tutor for Ielts to refer to Timothy!

The lessons were clear and the contents and teaching are effective as well. Tim know the IELTS marking process well, so i got clear instructions of what to improve and how to score. Other than that, the lessons were completely taught in an English-speaking enviroment which help me gain confidence when speaking English since I dont speak english regularly. The writing part is the most difficult to me, however, with significant help from the lessons and endless training, I am able to write a proper essay in 40 min, which to be honest, was very difficult to me in the beginning. All in all, after i had experience about 7 lessons and taking IELTS exam, I think the lessons were essential to me and in fact, I may not score 6.5 without the help of these lessons. Therefore, big appreciation to Tim!

Anaan

Helped me a lot to improve my IELTS writing, from a 6.5 to a 7.0 band within just 1 week. A lot of resources were provided and explained all the important details on both the writing tasks as well as speaking task.

Sara

Hi Timothy! I would like to thank you for all the support. It was extremely helpful and eased my path in IELTS exam. The comments for the essays and your responsibility were helpful. Thank you again!

Nazhan

I went for an IELTS crash course with Mr Tim just a week before my actual IELTS exam. Mr Tim is very well versed in all there is to know about IELTS and he explained to me from scratch how to go about each component. He emphasises on the IELTS examiner’s marking technique and this gave me a solid studying foundation before taking the exams. Tim is super generous with his notes, he provides whatever notes and revision books you require without any additional payment. I managed to achieve Band 7.5 overall, and because of that I strongly recommend his services.

Wilson

I am an university student and I have had the pleasure working with him for past couple of months. His teaching method has greatly developed my fundamentals in English especially grammar. If I am to say one thing I like about his teaching method, it would have to be how he always pinpoints my mistakes after each lesson.

Samer

Tim has helped me to progress from band 6 to band 7 in IELTS writing in less than 5 weeks. Before we started lessons, I had taken IELTS 3 times. First, he examined my writing and identified the issues that I need to remedy. Then he customized a specific plan for me and followed up with weekly action items. Tim also advised me on how to allocate time to practice different areas of writing such as structuring, improving paragraph development, fixing repetitive spelling mistakes, etc. I am very happy that I found Tim and I highly recommend him as a tutor.

Irfan

I have been under Tim's tutelage for a few months and I must say it's been quite an experience. Tim's way of approaching learning is by treating his client as he would his friends and also through systematic methods that are fun and easy to understand. I would recommend him for a quality English tutor.

Justin

Great lesson outline and overview of what is to be expected; well prepared and concise sessions would recommend 10/10

Timothy has assisted me a great deal in preparing for my IELTS writing examinations. He’s an excellent teacher and know how to pick up on my strengths and weaknesses in a short period of time. He is well versed with the IELTS marking system & could point out my errors in order to achieve the required band score. Not only that, with my busy schedule I find that he’s flexible If I need to plan a couple of last minute classes to achieve certain aims of the exam. I strongly recommend him for anyone planning to sit for an English exam!

Christine

Tim helped me to prepared my writing and speaking for the IELTS test. We spent most of the time on writing and I improved a lot with time management. I was worried about not being able to finish the writing test in time but it turns out that I still have time for checking grammar at the end. We practiced speaking test at Tim’s place as it’s quieter and more similar to actual test scenario. We only practiced twice because the writing part was more important for me, but the practice helped me to be less nervous when it came to the real test. Overall, I think the lesson with Tim was very helpful for my IELTS preparation, especially for the writing.

Yong Yi

Mr. Timothy is a teacher who is very focused and dedicated in his teaching. He will try his best to help you pass your exam, and he will give you all the material you need for practice. He usually corrects my speech when I am wrong, and I can ask him about any words that I'm not sure about. I enjoy his classes because they are fun, and sometimes we will make some jokes. Mr. Timothy is a really good teacher. I highly recommend him to others!

Viannie

Timothy worked with my daughter for 6 months to prepare for IGCSE English as a First Language. I liked the way he motivated her to aim for the best in the exams. The tips and guidance he provided were also very helpful, and I believe he contributed to her wellbeing & her success in achieving an A for her final English exam. I'm happy that you are part of her achievement. Thank you so much!

Varrhynshar Sebastian

For the past six months I have been taking O-Level classes from Mr Timothy. He is responsible and makes an effort to organize his classes well by preparing worksheets, slides, past year papers, etc. I have learnt a lot from him, like how to be organized. I have gained a lot of knowledge on exam preparations from him. He also makes the surrounding comfortable and conducive while he is teaching and he gives you a lot of confidence.

He made time in his busy schedule to fit me in, as the time I contacted him. I was going to sit for my IELTS in 3 weeks. He always is available if I need assisitance with any of the practice questions and he made sure that I had enough materials. Amazing tutor!

Govindraj

He is a fantastic guy with great teaching skills. I had only few days for my exam but he did insist me on the skills to improve my scores in the PTE examination. Moreover, he was also very friendly guy who you can share all your ideas to make you feel more comfortable. I would highly recommend him.

Syakir

I liked Tim's humble and friendly approach in dealing with students. Although my English was at a good level, Tim helped me improve and corrected some mistakes. His knowledge of the English language was quite impressive and he speaks with very little accent, which I think will help ESL students. He helped me prepare for the IGCSE English as a Second Language test and I managed to get an A.

Liew

Timothy managed to improve my writing abilities for my IELTS exam from a 6.5 to 7+ with just 4 classes! I highly recommend him if you are taking your IELTS exam.

Harsha

His friendliness and gentle approach towards teaching children to create an immediate positive environment for learning are effective. Teacher Timothy provides a detailed report on his student's strengths and weaknesses. This proves to be very helpful for students as well as parents.

Merlynna

Very professional, amazingly friendly, most proactive and exceedingly warm. From my 9-year-old daughter, ‘ Please add - very kind, made my education so much fun, the best’.

Jieunhur

Timothy is very passionate and hardworking teacher. What I like most about Timothy is that he's willing to not only explain easily; when he point out my errors, he can also quickly identify what my weakness is and always note it to prepare for next class. It helped a lot to make up for my weak point. Other than that,Timothy can also adapt to teach any kind of students just as he is teaching my mom,me and my sister as well! Even though we all have different levels and goals. He's been helping us to improve in many ways!9

I like that he customizes his lessons based on my strengths and weaknesses. He is creative in his approach to teaching, so our lessons are never boring. He has also been diligent in following up with me and sharing additional material after our lessons, which I really appreciate. Thank you, Timothy, you have been a great help.

Natasha

Firstly, What I like about Timothy Au, he is ready to take responsibility to teach me in short period. Next, I like the way he makes me feel confident when i speak with him although my English is moderate level. Lastly, the slide that given really help me in writing and reading section in MUET exam. The homework and tips really work on me to improve my writing, reading and speaking task for MUET. I highly recommend he as teacher👍

The classes are interactive and chill. This helps me better understand the challenging subject that I find difficult. Joven is also approachable, thus I am not afraid to ask him questions to help clarify my understanding of the subject topic. All in all, his a well-educated teacher who is able to give assistance to those who want to ace their subjects.

Mr. Joven's teaching in IGCSE Physics is exceptional—blending theory with hands-on examples, making complex concepts easy to understand. His dedication to ensuring every student grasps fundamental principles is commendable. In Biology, his contagious enthusiasm for life sciences makes learning enjoyable, even in virtual classes. His innovative teaching methods keep me engaged, and his availability for questions outside class hours shows his dedication to our success. Thanks to Mr. Joven, my grades in Biology and Physics have significantly improved, and my appreciation for these subjects has deepened. His passion, expertise, and commitment make him an invaluable educator.

His engaging style, personalised approach, and passion for the subject made learning enjoyable and effective, even in online classes. He ensures I stay on track, encourages questions, and fosters two-way interaction, making lessons engaging. Under his guidance, my understanding improved significantly, boosting my grades. I highly recommend Teacher Joven as an exceptional IGCSE Chemistry tutor.

I have been teaching since 1999 as a part time tutor and I have been teaching for more than 20 years to-date. I am now a full-time teacher in a secondary international school teaching the British syllabus (IGCSE) but I am also very well-versed with the Malaysian national syllabus KSSR and KSSM syllabus.

I will first assess the students capability as well as their strength and weakness, from there, I will be able to tackle them to enhance their strength and to reduce their weakness eventually. I am also very approachable and open to any suggestion for self-improvement. I believe that not only that the students learn something from me, but I will eventually learn something from my students too throughout every lessons. Thus, I am very flexible and will adjust to needs of both the student and parent, in shaa Allah.

Teacher Royliza is an amazing maths tutor who is kind, passionate, and sweet. My sessions were held online during the 2021 pandemic but her enjoyable teaching methods make it easy to learn even the most challenging concepts. She takes the time to really explain things clearly and patiently, and always goes the extra mile to ensure that her students understand the material. I highly recommend Teacher Royliza to anyone looking for a skilled and caring maths tutor!

Kattie Hoo

I ‘found’ Roy when I was desperately looking for a private Maths Tutor for my daughter who was not doing so great in most of her subjects. She was in Form Four when Roy took her on and it was such a relief for me. Roy was most patient in tutoring my daughter. In fact, my daughter said she understood Roy’s teaching better than the teacher in her school. And through Roy’s tutoring my daughter’s results began to pick up slowly but surely, from single-digit to low double and gradually work its way up. Her Form 5 SPM results were a surprise…a good one; an A. And this is all thanks to Roy and for this, I am grateful. THANK YOU VERY MUCH, Roy. We owe you much.

Dayana Batrisya

I really like Cikgu Royliza’s patience in teaching me. Before I attend her class, I was really bad and failed in every Math exam. However, three months before SPM 2018, I decided to have a tutor, which is Cikgu Royliza. During those time, I was scared that three months are not enough to help me obtain an A in Math as I always failed in my exam. However, due to Cikgu Royliza’s patience in teaching me, I was able to score straight As including Math for my SPM 2018 result. Thank you Cikgu Royliza for always believe in me!

To be honest, Ms Royliza is one of the best teacher I've met in my life. She explains in detail and not only that, she is very loud and clear!

All this aspects makes her irreplaceable to many of her students.

Samantha

Ms Roy is hands down the best maths teacher I've had the privilege of having. I've never liked maths before this but with Ms Roy's efficient and interesting way of teaching, I now enjoy doing practices & participating in discussions a lot. It is also the fact that she never minds when you do not understand something ; as long as you put in effort to ask & understand it in the end. I think that's very important for a student's learning process as it does not demotivate students, instead pushes them to do better. Ms Roy is also one of the most hardworking & dedicated teachers I've known, she makes it seem so easy to juggle so many classes that sometimes I really wonder how she does it! I've also definitely learnt how to be a more disciplined student as being in Ms Roy's class requires you to be on time to all her classes and complete homework & projects by the dateline. I'm glad that Ms Roy has instilled this in all of her students because I know for sure that it will help us all later in life. Lastly, I admire Ms Roy for her relentless effort & motivation when it comes to her students. She has never given up on us, regardless of our results and capabilities. I can honestly say that if you are as lucky as I am to be in her class, you're already halfway there to scoring the A or A* you want.

Tutoring Approach

By using teaching methods that coincide with universal teaching and learning criteria, including providing high-interest learning material, multiple means of assessment and instruction, as well as the careful modelling and scaffolding of new skills, I strive to ensure that every student achieves excellence.   In addition to believing that every student deserves and is capable of achieving success, I am passionate about preparing students for the globalized world that they will undoubtedly face as they grow to be adults. My lessons utilize all the technology that is available, giving my students an education in common technological uses including professional writing and presentations, internet research, and proper communication. Students are also encouraged to use and create activities as part of their authentic learning experience, which engages them in the subject matter and teaches valuable real-world skills.
