SPM due: February 2021 Class duration: July - November 2020 ——— I have never passed Addmaths in any exams during F4 and F5. The highest mark I've ever achieved was 30+. I felt absolutely doomed knowing my addmaths for the last exam before SPM still failed. So I actually felt like I've met a *ahem* saviour when I started his class. Teacher likes to teach very detailed and deep, to make sure student understand the concept, and the whys and hows. I also felt kinda happy cuz I like to bombard my teachers w questions(some teachers don't really layan their students for it) But teacher answered all of my questions very patiently *sob* (omg he really answers everything) His classes may be kinda expensive(for some students) but it's really considered cheap compared to other home tutors (I mean his homeworks are kinda a lot but still manageable) But well if you want to have A u must put in effort!!(too) I was actually really worried for my SPM (since I never even passed yet I still aspire to get an A) When I got my results(A) I WAS SO HAPPY(I was in disbelief) CANT BELIEVE I FINALLY PASSED AND GOT A!!!! Conclusion: WORTH IT Heyyo don't hesitate just sign up for his class he's really nice and patient T^T (sorry my review kinda disorganized but no lie really recommend)

Education

TCSOL; CELTA; B.Sc.(Hons.) with Petroleum Chemistry

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.

We are Canadian expat living in Kuala Lumpur with a special child.

We are Irish/Malay family with 2 boys. I was recommended by my Singaporean friend to Ms. Lee, learning that her daughter scored full A under the guidance of Ms Lee. We had Ms. Lee for exam preparation. She is a honest and dedicated teacher, who is direct and straight forward to the points in addressing the progress and performance. She is trustworthy and we count on her for the learning matter. Thank you.

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.

Ms. Lee has excellent written and communication skills, extremely organized and most importantly, responsible and reliable.

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.

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.

Master of Education (Language & Literature)

Experience

I have vast experience with both local and expatriate students and have been working in education for the past 14 years in a variety of different educational settings such as Lorna Whiston Language Centre, after a corporate stint in Singapore and Malaysia. I have a particular interest in Language and Literature and graduated top of my cohort with a Master of Education with a CGPA of 3.7/4.0. I also have a degree in Journalism and had served as a member of a university’s Advisory Board representing the Faculty of Education.I have been teaching students from a variety of local and international schools, building their confidence, and preparing them for IGCSE Checkpoint examinations as well as delivering classes in English Literature, Communicative and Business English to adult learners.

 The first lesson will be an assessment of where you/your child is at according to the 4 strands of language learning: Speaking, listening, reading and writing. We will then work out the schedule based on the learning objectives. As this is a private tutoring session, there will be opportunities to customize the lessons according to students' abilities and learning objectives. For example, an 'express' student would have the opportunity to take on more challenging work and would not only be restricted to learning at their class/age level. Similarly, students who require additional help would require more scaffolding and differentiation to learn comfortably at their pace and current abilities. I can help with that. Let's have a chat!

Tutoring Approach

I am a strong proponent of lifelong learning and believe that students have different learning abilities, and an effective educator would be able to identify and bridge the gap in learning. English is a beautiful and expressive language and being able to communicate and express your thoughts and opinions succinctly gives one an edge, be it in academics or the workplace. My tutoring approach is constructivist in nature and encompasses a broad variety of skills including creativity, critical thinking, digital and language competency to meet the challenges of the 21st century. I subscribe to quality resources for resources and provide personalised yearly reports as feedback on your/your child's learning trajectory.  Learning requires the consistency and time commitment both from the parents, student and teacher. Testimonials and results available upon request.

Subjects taught: English Enrichment, IGCSE, Academic English, Creative Writing, Literature, Conversational English, Business English

Jasper Wang

Although she comes across as strict initially, she is quite relatable. She gives me IGCSE exam papers to practice on, so I know what to expect. She also asks me about my day and is generally very funny. She understands terms like #slay and #Yes. Very good quality, top 10/10 teacher, and many thanks.

Renee

She’s very passionate about her job. She’s also prepares the materials needed for her students on specific chapters and will go in depth to explain certain parts of the question that students may find difficult. Therefore for my finals, I got an A for my English first language ( IGCSE ). If you’re looking for someone who’s experienced and patient I wholeheartedly 100% recommend Ms Khoo.

Monica

I have been a student of Ms Khoo throughout my primary and secondary days, where her guidance has led me to a high level of English fluency. I had stopped tuition for a while but right after I have picked it up again, Ms Khoo has helped me develop more confidence in essay writing in a short time -- on top of picking up strengths and building up upon them, she also provides criticism and advice in a positive way that gives students the motivation and initiative to continuously improve. Whether you are studying with Ms Khoo for the long-term or the short-term, get ready to see your English skills level up!

Kelly Khoo

Hi Lauren. thank you for the wonderful business english lessons for my staff which you have performed par excellance. My staff enjoyed themselves and I have seen vast improvement in their written and verbal communications under your tutorship.

Renèe Tan

I didn’t like reading or just learning in general but when I first met Miss Khoo she effectively captured my interested in the English language. So far she’s has taught me English and literature for 6 years and introduced to me Percy Jackson books and classics. I’m attending university soon and these memories will always stay with me.

Nes

She has an incredible gift for teaching. She is a dedicated tutor helping me to improve my language skill daily. Her teaching skills and knowledge is commendable. I am progressively achieving my career goals because of her. I was an executive when I met her and now I am leading a department in a reputable company. Her passion and dedication are beyond words!

Shaun Tay

She's really hands-on and cares about her students. Witnessed this first hand. Puts the extra effort by writing student evaluations twice a year for those taking a year's worth of classes. I also appreciate the consistency with classes, very rarely does she cancel scheduled classes. A true professional and a proper teacher that's leagues ahead of the usual disengaged tuition teachers that are pretty much going thru the motions of teaching a child.

She is a friendly teacher. Anythings that I really don't understand in study, I can come to her, she will lead me to solve the question and she won't give the answer directly, she led me to think more. Actually I'm not really good in biology and I don't have so much confident, but she gave me hope and taught me a lot, finally I got a good result in my biology. She always prepared all the teaching material before the lesson started. She has a good knowledge in biology, her explanation always clear and easier to understand.

Ms Pang is a capable teacher who really cares for her students. She always tries her very best to help us out and never give up on her students. She taught me the correct way of studying biology, she is the one who makes me love bio, as her teaching experience will enable her to teach in an interesting way.

Did only 4 lessons with Yan to brush up my swimming so I can swim better on my own. Not only can I swim more comfortably, she taught me a new stroke too xD It's hard to get a slot with her but I'm lucky I did!

Liyana

Yan was recommended by a friend. I am so happy to have her as my instructor. She is super knowledgeable and just an amazing person overall. I had a back injury from many years ago and while she teaches me swimming, she also does hydrotherapy with me to make sure I am in good shape and health. I used to dread going for any kind of classes but it's just easy with her for some reason. If you are looking for a credible swim, fitness, rehab professional, Yan is the person.

Marie Vd

A swim wizard like they said to be! Yan is the most patient and kindest swim coach I've met. She understood our concerns and fears and helped us reach our goals. Izzy and I can both swim comfortably instead of struggling for breaths, which all we ever wanted. You can also tell she is very experienced from the way she conducts the class. I've had 2 coaches previously and can confidently say Yan is the best, if not one of the bests out there. Highly recommend.

Will Watson

My two teenagers went through a short training stint with her and their strokes have improved significantly since. Not only that, they have also gained some new skills too (Pippa loves the turn very much). We appreciate that she communicates well with the kids, stern when needed but at the same time a good friend to them. They absolutely enjoyed the classes. Thank you very much, and will be back for more lessons when the kids return to Malaysia. Cheers!

I have spent many years and a lot of money for my kids to learn in group classes but their techniques is very poor. Decided to engage Yan for my kids for private class and I think my kids learnt more in one lesson with her than 1 month in group lesson at D**.

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.

Wana

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.

Giam

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!

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.

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!

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.

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!

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!

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.

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.

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.

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’.

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
