Self Introduction

Dear Parents and Students!

I am currently studying at University of Nevada Las Vegas (Singapore) for a degree in Bachelor of Science in Hotel Administration and amidst my school work, I am able to provide part time tutoring with good time management.

Ever since primary school, I have excelled in my studies and have also participated well in my CCAs in school. My strengths in subjects are namely Math and Chinese. For primary school students, I will be able to teach English and Science as well.
I have participated actively in Music & Drama Club (Primary School), Choir (Secondary Sch) and Dance (Polytechnic). All these club activities have nurtured me into a good team player and being able to adapt quickly into new environments.

In the past, I had taught 2 students who are both my younger cousins. When I taught them, one of them was in P6 and recently, I taught my P3 cousin as well. I believe that children are active by nature and thus my tuition style would be trying to get my students to speak up. Education involves both the teacher and student. By having students to speak up and ask questions, that is when I will know what their weaknesses and strengths are in order to change my tuition style accordingly to suit them.
Tuitions will follow the school syllables as stated on the MOE website. During school holidays before the start of new year, preparation lessons can also be requested for the coming year.
During tuitions, I will focus on school topics to ensure students have a clear idea of what they are learning. For example, if they are learning Area and Perimeter in school at the moment in school, the tuition will be based on it as well. If there is extra time after revision of Area and Perimeter, I will then bring in past topics which the students are weaker in.
I encourage creative and active learning among students and thus, I will recommend reading materials which can be interesting and educational for them too. Reading is especially important for improvement in languages.

Other than tuitions, I have also worked at several event jobs such as UOB Lite Roadshow and as a part-time reservation officer at a travel agency. These jobs have helped me greatly with interrelationship skills to communicate with different types of people.

I hope the above self-introduction have allowed you to know more about me. Good day everyone!
