Education

Economics and Statistics (Dean's List) from University College London (UCL)

Experience

Experienced tutor tutoring in Malaysia and London. Completed all three levels of CFA. Currently working as an investment banker in a bank who specializes in subjects like Economics, Econometrics, Statistics, and Mathematics. Capable of teaching subjects in a practical manner - relating academics subjects to industrial application.

Tutoring Approach

I usually spend quite some time to plan for lessons to ensure the quality that I am delivering - linking academic topics to industrial application. Such as the topic of linear algebra? Why do you have to spend so much time learning eigenvectors and eigenvalues? What do the industrial experts use it for? I will be preparing the lesson in such a way that you are aware of all these - gaining a holistic perspective on a range of topics.

Education

Malaysian Institute of Certified Public Accountants. Member of MICPA since 1992.

Experience

• For over 18 years, I have been Tutoring, Coaching and Mentoring students from Public Secondary Schools and Pre-Universities as well as those from CIE syllabus-based Private and International Schools.
• I teach subjects like Accounting, Mathematics, Additional Mathematics, English First Language and ICT.
• I prepare students for the PT3, SPM and STPM exams and/or the CIE IGCSE, O-Level, AS and A2 Level exam.

Tutoring Approach

• First, I would go through the basic concepts for the subject concerned
• Second, I would explain in details some worked examples step by step.
• Then, students are given graded exercises to assess their full grasp on the principles just taught. 
• They are encouraged to ask questions to clear any doubts they might have over the topic learned.
• Next, they attempt more challenging questions with minimal guidance for confidence building.
• I apply tailored-made teaching techniques according to each student’s learning capability.  
• They are inculcated the importance of good study habits; a passion for learning and gaining knowledge.
• I employ positive reinforcement to challenge their limits, discover and realize their full potential for and by themselves. “No one is born an idiot. Likewise a genius is not born but made.”    

In summary, my tutoring methodology and student learning process are as follows:

1)  Reading for Comprehension and Understanding

2)  Observing for Relevance and Importance

3)  Processing of Input Data

4)  Analyzing and Interpreting Output Info

5)  Concluding Outcome and Results

6)  Responding to Question Requirements

Education

Bachelor of Science (Mathematics)

Experience

I have 5 years of tuition tutoring experience (SPM - Maths, Add Maths) and 9 years of full-time classroom and individual teaching at the college level (Both Ed-excel and Cambridge A-level, Maths and Further Mathematics). I have a vast experience of teaching young adults (17-20 years old) from various background (local and international). I am sensitive and able to connect to them in their language. The preferred teaching day is Saturday. The schedule is flexible and can be changed if required.

Tutoring Approach

I focus on test preparation, explaining difficult concepts using daily language or idea familiar to students, give counselling on time-management and study plan. I seek not only on intellectual development but care about my students' growth as a person. Therefore, I look into faithfulness and discipline of a student in learning as well as their performance in the examination.

Education

Master in health and medical sciences (Biochemistry & Genetics Major)

Experience

Miss Tan is an excellent tutor well-versed in both IGCSE and UEC syllabus. Subjects covered by her includes: Mathematics, Additional-Mathematics and Biological Sciences (Pre-U/ Uni level only). 

Her students see major improvement in grades after months of tutoring, and parents praise her for her attentiveness during each lesson. She presents herself well, and comes to each lesson well-prepared. Because of the small age gap, she finds it easy to connect and build good mentorship with her students.

Tutoring Approach

For my new students, first lesson is always aimed at understanding their area of weakness for a subject through a small test and discussion with them. I find out their performance in school, and their personal goal for this subject.

Then, I plan our future lessons to

1. help them understand new topics better

2. improve & strenghthen their understanding for old topics through countless exercises + exam-style questions.

I believe that everyone can be good at Mathematics. Some are born with it, but most achieve that through exercises and hardwork.

Tutoring Approach

I believe that every student should be motivated to take initiative in their own studies. It is, therefore, important to assess and understand the needs of individual students and to approach the subjects in ways which make sense to them. I will help my students to formulate simple and effective methods which will allow them to fully grasp the subject.
