I'm a current full-time tutor specialising in O Level Math and Science and I’m also familar with the IB syllabus. All of my students have had improvements in their grades for major exams, majority achieving As and high Bs. I’m committed to help students understand and grasp the key concepts and principles behind the subjects they are learning. I have performed well myself at GCE A and O levels, and was awarded a scholarship with the largest professional services firm in Singapore which I have joined for four years after graduation, working on accounting and tax for multinational conglomerates and large financial institutions. I am currently a full-time tutor to engage in face-to-face work which I am more passionate about. I have a good understanding of exam techniques and key concepts that are usually tested in the syllabus, and I try to help students understand what is required of them to achieve the necessary marks. I usually explain problems by breaking them down to simple and understandable parts and I’ll guide the students step-by-step on the logic of achieving the answers. I’m very patient with the explanation and drilling process to make sure they have a firm foundation in the core principles of the subject matter and I don’t stinge on effort and time. I also try to build positive rapport with the students so I can communicate with them better to identify and help with their problem areas.

Elaine

NATIONAL UNIVERSITY OF SINGAPORE

I have several years of experience teaching English to students with low abilities in English and consider English as a second language, both through private tuition as well as in MOE school, Chung Cheng High School (Main) which is a SAP school. The students I have taught include students from Chinese-speaking families and foreign students (from Malaysia, China, Taiwan etc). I am essentially bilingual and fluent in both English and Chinese. Being competent in both languages enables me to tailor the teaching method to students who are more competent in Chinese and find difficulty in mastering English. I am able to understand the challenges faced by these students who are rarely exposed to English on a daily basis, and help them to improve their English despite the low exposure. I have a good track record for helping such students to pass their English grade after failing many times and also in helping those who manage to pass to improve their grades. I understand that the English grade is extremely important for entry into a good Secondary school or Junior College, therefore I strive to help these students to enter the school of their choice. I also have several years of experience teaching Primary level English, Maths and Science. I have prepared a few batches of Primary 6 pupils for PSLE.

Sandy

NANYANG TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY

Hi! In my 14 years of tutoring experience, I have taught a wide array of student from private candidates to IP,IGCSE, IB, PSLE, O' levels as well as A'levels students. I specialise in English and Literature. personal details aside, I would also like to inform you thatteaching is something i enjoy because there have been many tutors in my life that have impacted my educational development and I would like to pay it forward. Currently my experience teaching at a tuition center helps to streamline myself with the MOE syllabus better. I've had 7 years of IB teaching experience and currently have 3 students at hand now. Two of them are from HCI and another student is from ASC(I). IB requires a specific set of literature skill techniques which I was widely exposed to during my honours degree, thus would be more than helpful for IB students building their analytical skill set. With my share of PSLE and O level students over the 9 years, I've come to understand my students' key areas of weakness, namely composition and comprehension. As such, guidance for these two areas are heavily emphasised. Students under my tutelage are given worksheets that have strengthen and perfect their grammar as they are expected to score full marks in grammar sections. Worksheets are also tailored individually and accordingly to each student's weakness. With combined hard work, my students normally see at least a grade improvement after at least 3 months of working together. I believe every student has the capacity to excel and together, we can bring help bring your child's English Lanuage to excellence.

Gloria

NANYANG TECHNOLOGICAL UNIVERSITY

Tutoring Experience (in years): 7 (1 year full time)O level students taught in 2019: 5I focus on language fundamentals as I’ve found that this helps best in long-term improvement. I also have my own special methods for teaching composition and essay writing, which have proved very helpful for my students. My comprehension techniques focus on how to understand the requirements of the questions and how to answer them effectively. So far, I have taught upwards of 40 students, ranging from Lower Primary to Upper Secondary students. One of my specialisations is helping Lower Sec students transition to the more demanding syllabus of Upper Sec. I have a particular investment in helping weaker students. Currently, one of my Primary school students has mild dyslexia while one of my Sec 2 students has ADHD. I also have experience in teaching foreign students. Last year, I did extensive coaching for a 9-year-old student who was trying to pass the English proficiency exam conducted by Overseas Family School. She had failed the test the year before but managed to progress from level 1 to level 2 after our 4 months of lessons together. I’m now teaching a Sec 1 student who had just transferred from Malaysia to a local school earlier this year, as well as her P5 brother. In 2017, my student, who had taken the O level English paper twice previously, finally managed to pass after having scored E8 and D7 his past two times. My method of dealing with students varies depending on the age and maturity level of each individual, but I try to understand why the student is having difficulty with the subject. Usually, during the first lesson, I would spend some time talking to the student about their school life to find out more about what could be affecting their performance. During subsequent lessons, I continue to check up on how they are coping and whether they have any difficulties in any specific areas. I strive to be someone of authority in their life, someone they can be comfortable enough around to ask as many questions as they might need. I follow the MOE syllabus guidelines stringently.

I have experience in tutoring primary and secondary school students as a volunteer under the MCYC scheme on a weekly basis over 1 year. Subjects include English, Mathematics and Chinese. I have also tutored and guided pre-school to primary school level children in a 6-months volunteer project, where these children are in need of academic help due to their family background. It may be more challenging to tutor some of these children who may have anger fits, but their learning is slowly seen through fun, enrichment activities and interesting worksheets. My passion and preference is in teaching the English language and to hone Writing skills. I am a writer, and also wrote for a charity empowering youths, and for clients such as SMU in my previous workplaces.

Soniya

UNIVERSITY OF BUFFALO

As a tutor, my aim is to ensure my students fully enjoy and understand whatever subject I am teaching. I hope to instill a passion for learning in them. I have been teaching students for the past six years and have taught over 18 students from both primary and secondary school in English, Science, Tamil and Humanities. During my lessons, I will ensure that my students understand the topic fully before moving on. I believe in concept maps and mind maps and will summarize the topic for the students’ better understanding. I do not believe in giving extra homework as the student will already have school work to do. I will set quizzes to test my students and check their progress level. I am open to 1 to 1 tuition and group tuition depending on the students’ preference. As a tutor, I will do my level best in ensuring that my students will achieve their goals. I have taught four secondary 1 and 2 students during the past 2 years. Presently, I am teaching 2 secondary 4 student, two primary school students and 1 JC1 student. I have a lot of experience in working with 'O' level and PSLE students. Two of my students who were failing had improved by passing their mid-term, and eventually attained B3 for the end of year examinations, in a short span of 6 months. My primary school student, who was failing her English, attained 80 for her final examinations this year. A few of my students scored 75 - 85 marks in their examinations as well. I have taught both PSLE and O level students and have done my best to guide them to achieve A grades which my students have achieved.

I am familiar with the syllabus and have been tutored myself, back when I was in school, so I know what's truly effective and what doesn't really work.I've consistently scored As for English and English-related subjects (Literature) in every major examination, so I must be doing something right :)My essays are always being circulated amongst my class and/or cohort in secondary school and JC as examples of ideal essays, therefore I'd also like to be able to share and transfer the skills and techniques of good writing to my tutee.I interned at a language school the previous year, which gave me some experience in guiding students, especially those weaker in English.

HWA CHONG INSTITUTION

NUS undergraduate studying Business and Psychology. Graduated from Hwa Chong Institution (IP) and Henry Park Primary School. 1 year of teaching experience. Taught primary school and secondary school students Math and Science and have received positive feedback. Currently have 5 lower secondary science students who are improving steadily.As a tutor, I believe in teaching my students to study hard, study smart and appreciate the bigger picture. I am able to specifically pinpoint the weaknesses of the student and implement the necessary measures to help them improve. I believe in drafting specific studying methods and tactics to suit each individual student's learning needs to ensure they learn in the most effective way possible and gain the confidence that they can achieve their desired grades. I enjoy connecting and working together with the student and parent to build a conducive and nurturing learning environment. Through this approach, students became more interested in the subject and were more motivated to improve their results and become better. Some students even went from scoring consistent Cs to scoring As. Just recently helped a P6 Science student go from an E to a B for PSLE.

I taught English Language in secondary schools, including HCI, ACS and SST for about 15 years. I have also tutored for 2.5 years full-time after I took a break in 2010 to focus on my kids. The students under my charge typically improved by 2 to 3 grades. Customised materials, supplemented by my teaching resources, are provided for my students. Moreover, depending on the needs of the particular child, lessons will be modified accordingly to suit his/her pace and ability. I have helped students to improve from a B3 grade in their Prelims to a A1/A2 grade in their O levels. In addition, I have taught 3primary 6 students in 2015 to 2017and both improved from a C grade to a A in their PSLE.

Ivony

ANDERSON JUNIOR COLLEGE

I am an A-level graduate from Anderson Junior College, currently an NUS accountancy student, hoping to help others attain their desired grades the same way my past teachers and tutors have helped me achieve mine. When tutoring others, I usually ask them if they have any questions they want to ask and if they do, why they find the question difficult. From these questions, I can usually identify and sort out any misunderstandings. Then, I ordinarily ask whether the student has any other doubts about the topic that I further clarify or if they want, I can explain the entire topic to them as a refresher (typically using my own notes and summaries from my own school years) and definitely recommend practice.As an ex-MOE scholar (2015-2018), I understand the high pressures most students are under to perform during exams - especially for thosewho might be unfamiliar to the system- and I honestly believe every student is capable of doing so as long as they genuinely believe they can and I believe I can pump this sort of confidence into them - along with the knowledge and skills needed to justify that confidence boost. Highest level I have taught is JC2 H2 Economics

I am 24 years old this year and I have experience teaching students who are new to learning English. I used to be in public speaking and debate club so I can definitely help you to become a fluent and confident English speaker. With consistent practice your public speaking skills will improve with my guidance. Currently teaching a 13 year old Korean boy from an international school (Canadian International School). I have ample experience of over 6 years teaching English and Mathematics for primary and secondary school. I am currently teaching seven primary school children, including 3 Primary 6 girls English. Two of them will be going to River Valley. I believe the most important is to ignite a child’s passion for learning, as grades will follow naturally with an self-motivated learning attitude. I have also taught a 6 year old boy with adhd. Do let me know if you are interested in engaging my tutoring services, we can have a chat! Thank you very much and have a great day :)
