BA (Government and Public Policy) (Hons.)

Experience

For Standard 1-3 students, I encourage students to read short stories and practice speaking the languages that they choose to master. Songs that suit their age and vocabulary are also used as a medium of teaching and learning. As for students in Standard 4 and above, I highly encourage the students to read and write short essays to polish their vocabulary. On Social Sciences class, I use movies and real life stories to make the students relate the theories and reality when they are learning.

Tutoring Approach

I will approach the students primarily based on his/her preferred method(s) of learning skills- visual, auditory, reading/writing or kinesthetic; or combination of methods. This is to engage the students throughout the teaching and learning process. I plan the lessons based on the students/parents preferences and align it with the school syllabus. I enjoy listening to the student's thoughts and opinion to ensure that they do not feel restricted in voicing out their ideas. I will also recommend books for them to read during their leisure time based on their preferred genres to increase their interest in learning.

My role is to facilitate and guide the learner through their learning journey.

My lesson always starts with a warmer. This is a lead into the lesson. I like to include a couple of activities in my lesson. This captures the attention of the learner. The learner also becomes involved in what they are learning. Humour is always part of my lesson because it makes learning less tedious.

Education

SPM, A-Levels, and currently pursuing a Law Degree.

Experience

I'm Laetitia Wan, 22 years old.

I was raised with English being my first language, and had continuously scored A+ (which is marks 85 and above) in all of my English examinations, including Essay, Listening, and Oral assessments. I had achieved an A+ in SPM for English, and I am currently in my final year of completing my Law Degree.

For the past 2 years, I have been a tutor to 5 children. The first was in 2022, where I taught an 8-year-old Korean boy English, focusing especially in areas of his speech, pronunciation, and vocabulary. By the end of the tutoring period, he could order food by himself, and understand what others were saying to him.

In 2023, I had taught 4 Korean children, within the ages of 9-12. I had also focused on talking to them; by guiding them on how to converse with one another in English, teaching them a wide range of vocabulary, so that they have a better understanding of the English language, and also coaching them in writing Essays suited to their age and English level.

My style of teaching is a mixture of teaching and tutoring in a responsible manner, with also a hint of fun and playfulness. In a typical 1-hour class, I tend to practice Speech for the first 30 minutes, then on Essays or Spelling for the next 20 minutes (Please take note this is customized based on the child's own shortcomings and specific areas that the parent would like to see improvements in the child's English). The last 10 minutes is to revise the syllabus the child and I had gone through for the day, and this is normally done in the form of games, like Jenga or UNO. I like playing games with my students at the end, as it allows them to de-stress and also understand that the English language and myself, as the English tutor, shouldn't be scary, but a fun experience.

I believe that I am a good tutor to young children of ages 7-17; this is due to the fact that I am based in Malaysia, and thus, I am experienced in the English syllabus taught in schools in Malaysia, as I had to go through UPSR, PT3, SPM, and other school-based assessments myself, and had invariably scored A+ in all of them. I am confident that I can guide my students to score well in their own English assessments.

Tutoring Approach

I believe that tutoring is a job that requires passion and gentle guidance. As a tutor, I am motivated to see my students improve and become more confident and open in speaking English to others. I tend to push my students to talk more, share their opinions, and thoughts with me in English so that I can understand them better and help them enhance their grammar and vocabulary to have a better grasp of how speech works in English. However, I do understand that some students are shy or may even suffer from anxiety. When I encounter students like this, I tend to teach and talk slower and softer, giving more time for the student to answer my questions based on their comfort level.

Before the tutoring period starts, I usually sit down with the parents to inquire about their concerns regarding their child's English. I then note down specific areas for improvement, such as vocabulary or essays, and work out a schedule on different topics and subjects that the child and I can tackle during the tutoring period.

I understand a parent's worry when their child is lacking in a language, so I strive to push the child to improve and cultivate an attitude that helps develop and enhance their English skills. For example, I may suggest reading English newspapers or novels suited to their age and reading level.

I believe that every student is special and unique, so lesson plans will differ for each student. My lesson plans are based on their shortcomings or what the parents want to see improved in their child's grasp of the English language.

My fees are as follows:
1. Teaching Fees: RM30 for 1 hour for 1 child.
2. Transportation Fees: based on Grab, to and from my home to the parent's preferred place of study.
3. Materials Fees: depends on the materials needed. For example, if the child needs to improve in reading, I will bring my own books for them to read in class at no extra charge. However, if the child needs to improve in essays or spelling, I will print out the questions, and this additional amount will be covered as Materials Fees by the parent.

Please feel free to message me if you are interested!

Education

MA ELS, CELTA, BA (double major) English Literature & Linguistics, Diploma in Education Trends, Diploma in Applied Psychology, Certificate in TEFL

Experience

Now that you have stumbled across my board, allow me to introduce myself. I am a qualified teacher for English and Biology.

In the realm of English, I aim to ignite your curiosity and foster your love for language, literature, and effective communication. Whether you're grappling with grammar, crafting compelling essays, or analyzing intricate literary works, I'm here to support you every step of the way.

Similarly, in the fascinating world of biology and combined science, I'm committed to making complex biological concepts accessible and engaging. Together, we'll explore the wonders of life sciences, from dissecting cellular processes to unraveling the mysteries of ecosystems and human physiology.

I have been actively tutoring for the last six years! With me, you'll find a supportive and collaborative learning environment tailored to your individual needs.

I do not support any rote learning or traditional methods and my students are my utmost priority (sounds cliche, I know!) but they really are. To date, all my past students and I are still in contact, where we have fostered a very nurturing relationship.

My experience in teaching particularly includes students from international schools of the following classes, mainly:

Year 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10 for the IGCSE and IB curriculums.

Just to give credit, I'd like to share a focus and goal of mine: Last year, I was entrusted with a weak student and managed to improve their grade from zero to 40% in just three months!

Tutoring Approach

For my tutoring approach, it varies from student to student and subject to subject. For English, depending on the academic domain, I use a blend of communicative, direct, guided discovery, etc. for the students.

For Biology and Combined Science, my approach is more focused on the practicality of learning rather than theorizing in detail.

My classes are highly interactive and tailored to each student's needs. In my typically one-hour classes, I teach for either 25 minutes with a 5-minute break or for 45 minutes with a 10-minute break.

Concept Checking Questions (CCQs) are an important part of my lessons, and being available and present in my class is crucial. I do not tolerate situations where class interaction is one-sided or where students are engaged in activities other than studying. Maintaining a consistent check and balance ensures harmony in my classes.

I assign homework when necessary and require students to review the material covered in the previous lesson.

Education

Degree in Computer Science Defence

Experience

Hi, I'm Nabila. Graduated from NDUM (National Defense University Malaysia) or known as UPNM. In teaching fields, I used to teach at Language Centre as Cambridge Tutor to prepare students for Cambridge Exams such as KET PET and YLE exams. These exams include writing, reading, listening and communication skills. I enjoy teaching and watch my students grow from zero to hero. I used to teach international students from different countries whom with zero knowledge in English, which I teach them to communicate in English from scratch.

Tutoring Approach

I prefer one to one class even if my students are siblings. I loved to focus on my students one on one. I will start our class with an achievement test so that I would know on which level my students are. I will use my own worksheets based on my student's performance and need. I believed a good foundation in learning is the baby step for greater knowledge in future.

Education

Tutoring Approach

I adopt a versatile teaching approach tailored to the needs and learning preferences of my students. Through a blend of lectures, interactive discussions, case studies, and hands-on activities.

Tutoring Approach

I carefully think about what I want students to learn in each lesson. I look at what they already know and choose activities and materials that will help them understand new ideas. I make sure everything is organized well so it's easy to follow along.

I use different ways to help students learn, like asking questions to get them thinking and talking about the topic. I give feedback to help them improve, and I create a friendly environment where everyone feels comfortable asking questions.
