Education

MBA

Experience

I graduated with second upper class in BSc in Business in 2010. I also completed MBA in UNITAR International University with CGPA of 3.88 in 2016 and ACCA Professional Qualification in 2020.   During my university studies, I was working as a part time tutor for around 4 years. I was handling BM, BI and Maths tuition classes for Standard 4 till Form 3. I am also a certified TESOL (English) teacher. Subsequently after graduation, I started my working life in commerce and banking industry while teaching tuition part time for many years. Currently I am full time lecturer in one of the tertiary colleges in Penang.   Overall I have more than 8 years of teaching tuition experience in English, Maths, Add Maths and Economics for secondary schools (SPM, IGCSE) and pre-university levels (STPM).

Tutoring Approach

My aim as a tutor is to create in my students a deep understanding and confidence in answering exam questions and  being able to tackle new and unfamiliar problems.   My philosophy is based on the idea that learning happens in an environment of mutual respect in which the student is encouraged to think and make new connections for themselves.  My experience has been that one-to-one personal tuition has a unique value to students because of the ability to resolve the students’ personal barriers to learning in a way that lays the foundations for a deep and lasting understanding of the subject. My approach varies depending on the student’s needs and learning style. However my teaching philosophy is based on encouraging students to think for themselves, using real-world exampleswherever possible. I start from topics the students are comfortable with and move gradually towards more complex areas as their confidence builds. I use questions and examples to check understanding continually.  I don’t lecture to students or ask them to memorise things.  Nor do I do the students’ homework for them! I usually focus on exam-style or past paper questions in order to check, practice and perfect the student’s understanding and technique. I also give a lot of emphasis to some of the less obvious but vital skills such as essay structure and technique, logical thought, and the effective use of numbers and graphs.

Education

Degree in Accounting

Experience

I have 3 years teaching experience as a private tutor. I would conduct the class based on the student's ability and make changes based on the progress. I just finished my degree in accounting and graduated with distinction. My advantage is that I have better understanding on the subjects and can provide a better and appropriate explaination to the students. 

Tutoring Approach

I will provide a demo class for the students, and generally know their understandings towards the particular subject. Then, I will plan for the teaching methods, and constantly update the schedule based on the progress. I would not give homeworks for the student unless it's necessary as sufficient practical questions would have been given during the classes. I would prefer students to contact me through whatsapp.

SPM

Experience

I've been tutoring kids of various ages since 2016. It's been a journey, and teaching students has taught me many things in life as well.

Tutoring Approach

I'm a more hands-on person. I prefer to use 10% of my given time to teach and the other 90% to guide while my students do their work. I prefer to educate someone in terms of their way of thinking rather than teach for the sake of exams. I'd like my students to use what they've learnt from me even until after they've graduated from school.

SPM, C1 Level Proficiency in English

Experience

I'm a full-time language teacher who specializes in teaching Cambridge English. I can teach both Young Learners and teenagers. I'm currently pursuing my Bachelor's in Education as well and seeking to gain more experience as I go.

I hold a C1 proficiency level qualification in English.

Tutoring Approach

I am most comfortable teaching through the Direct Method, where I only speak in English. I have discovered that this method effectively immerses students in learning the language and helps them become comfortable speaking as well. I prefer using a range of materials to deliver my lessons, such as Powerpoints, worksheets, or game quizzes, as I find it easier to capture the students' attention.

I am happy to work on any aspect you feel needs improvement, whether it be grammar, speaking, or comprehension.

However, most importantly, I would need you to have your child take a quick placement test to check his proficiency. This is incredibly important in order to understand your child's strengths and weaknesses before the first lesson. If you would like to learn more about the test or have any other questions, please feel free to contact me.

Advanced Diploma In Information Technology

Experience

I have been teaching for the past 15 years. My teaching is based on the school syllabus. My material and way of teaching are designed to meet my students' level of understanding. Hence, each student will have a different approach to help them cope and grasp the subject better.

Tutoring Approach

There are many different ways of teaching, but mine is pretty much versatile based on individual students' progress. We might start off with something easy and fun and gradually move to a more academic approach. Some students are good with diagrams, some are good with mapping, tables, or pictures. Some find it easier with short notes or point forms. Sometimes we use acronyms too. All in all, what works for my students works for me.

Education

Bachelor Degree of Education (TESL)

Experience

With 5 years of teaching experience, I specialize in guiding elementary and high school students to excel in English. My main specialization is in SPM answering techniques for all four (4) skills: Reading, Writing, Listening, and Speaking. My knack for creating engaging educational modules has helped many students achieve outstanding results. I love hosting seminars for SPM exam candidates and leading lively group classes. Boosting student motivation and discipline is my superpower!

Tutoring Approach

I use fun and engaging techniques tailored to each student's abilities. Primarily, I utilize mind maps and multiple questioning techniques to break down complex topics into simple, manageable units.

To ensure students truly grasp the material, I mix and match different teaching methods. One of my favorite techniques for teaching English is the "Stars Aligned," an engaging way to connect the dots in writing and speaking. This method encourages students to enhance their creativity and confidence in writing and speaking. My mission as an educator is to see students thrive and enjoy their learning journey.
