Self Introduction
I used to conduct part-time tutoring from 2011 to 2013, in Upper/Lower Primary and Lower Secondary. I always find a sense of satisfaction when I see students making the mark in subjects that they used have difficulty in. I remembered I was entrusted a student who was weak in English and he was only 4 months away from PSLE. His parents were very worried that he might not be able to fast. After consoling the student, it was revealed that he hated the subject as he felt that he was always 'picked on' by his form teacher for the poor grasp. With effective coaching and guidance, not only did he improve tremendously and score above expectations for his English in PSLE, he also picked up the habit of reading English novels, etc. To me it is very important to find out what is causing a student to be lacking in a particular area and focus on effectively untying that knot. That would make tutoring and learning much more effective once the student does not dread or fear the subject.

I love to teach and I like to impart knowledge. Being social and outgoing, I can interact with people from all walks of life, irregardless of age.

My students always managed to overcome fear/obstacles of the subjects they are weak in within 4-6 lessons and I emphasize a lot on conceptual learning and simplifying them for my tutees. Once these barriers are gone, my students would be able to cope with their homework with ease and usually see improvements in the next upcoming tests. Given sufficient time before the exams and by following my study plans/guides, students have managed to secured better grades than expected.
