Experience
I am a goal-driven and highly competent Primary School English teacher with more than 10 years of experience. I taught in Maris Stella for about 8 years where I specialised in teaching English in the Mid and Upper Primary Levels.
As such, I am extremely well-versed in the curriculum and pedagogy of teaching English, and have engaged students of varying abilities throughout the years. In Maris Stella, I was also one of the few teachers who were entrusted with the responsibility of teaching the top-performing classes and have a proven track record of optimising student performance.
In addition to my teaching responsibilities, I held the positions of Subject Head for Character and Citizenship Education (2013 - 2015) and Primary 5/6 Year Head (2015). On top of being a PSLE marker from 2009 - 2015, I was also chosen to be an Assistant Supervisor during the PSLE Marking Exercise (English Paper 2) in 2015. Hence, I am very familiar with the marking conventions and requirements of each component of the PSLE English Paper.
My experiences have made me confident in my abilities to value-add to the learning of all my students as a private tutor. I take pride in being good at building excellent student-teacher relationships to help my students maximise their potential and reach their individual goals. Many of my ex-students and their parents, whom I have great working relationships with, will attest to that.
Since I started tutoring full-time in 2016, all my students have made significant improvements and almost all have achieved at least an A for their PSLE English.

In terms of GP, besides the importance of having strong language , it is vital to think critically about issues and out the box analysis . In years of investment banking and consultancy, every work problem is an assessment of 'general paper' case study , to provide analysis of issues and recommend possible solutions from all factors available

I've taught officially in a tuition centre for a year, but informally for about 2 years. Students ranged from IJ, to TPJ, to NJ.
The students from NJ went from a D or C for school exams to a B or A for A levels, the student from TP and IJ went from fail to a C/B being with me for J1. So about 1-2 grades each.
