Teaching Experience:
- I tutored an NA student for 6 months for Science (Chemistry, Biology) for 2025 N levels. Improvement: 58% (Sec 3 EOY) --> 73% (Sec 4 Prelims) --> >75%/2 (N Level 2025)
- I'm currently tutoring a PSLE student Math and Science
Teaching methods:
In class, I teach concepts while helping students create their own personalised notes. In the future, they'll be able to refer back to the notes and recall the content as the notes are written in a way that will make sense to them. Furthermore, when going through questions, I show my students how to approach different type of questions and the 'why' behind the answer. This helps students complete papers with understanding rather than just memorisation. Lastly, I am able to connect well with the students with their hobbies and life, and create an environment where students are comfortable to clarify doubts.
