Reviews

Education

Master Degree in Applied Statistics, Bachelor of Science (Major Mathematics)

Experience

Expertise in Pre-U/University Mathematics (Pure and Further Maths) and Statistics subjects, 7 years experience in part-time Private Tuition (subjects taught: SPM, STPM, A-Level and University Mathematics/Statistics/Econometrics) with at least 4 students scored A+ in A-Level Mathematics, 2 years experience as a University Tutor. Currently working as Data Analyst in banking industry (skills involved: Data Mining, Statistical Programming and Database Management)

Tutoring Approach

Flexible learning topics and explanation approaches according to student's needs. Strong emphasis of understanding of basic concepts before moving into more advanced topics. Probe for student's response in order to enhance understanding during teaching. I relate learning topics to practical applications in real world.

Education

BEng. Chemical Engineering & BSc. Maths, Operational Research, Statistics and Economics. Currently studying Postgraduate Certificate in Teaching & Learning

Experience

I have taught mathematics for students from Primary 4 to Pre-university mostly under the UK Curriculum (including IGCSE and A-levels). The students I've taught have all passed, most with high grades. I usually teach on a 1-to-1 basis in an open area at the students home. Lessons are normally 2 hours, but some elect for 1 hour. I have taught children with special needs but please note I am not certified for it.

Tutoring Approach

I am someone who will adjust accordingly to the students needs if it proves to be useful.  At the beginning of the lesson I normally conduct a quick review of what's covered previously.  For new topics I teach the theory piece by piece and demonstrate 1 or 2 examples before getting students to do exercises during lessons.  To me it is more important that I get a student to understand a topic in-depth rather than get them to memorise a formula or an algorithm of steps because the latter usually results in just a surface understanding rather than a deep understanding; they know the method works but they don't know why it works.   After a few topics are covered I would normally get a student to do small tests during the lessons (usually no longer than an hour), not only to help them retain topics but also work on proper exam techniques. I try not to restrict myself to the orthodox method of teaching as it may not work for some students.  So I'm constantly researching new methods or creatively thinking of ways that would help a particular student understand certain topics.   However, math can be mundane to some if you don't sometimes inject some things to keep the lessons interesting.  Therefore on occassion I may slip in something unrelated to their syllabus such as logic-based riddles which companies may use in their aptitude tests during their hiring process, or mathematical workings that show bizarre results.

Education

BEng (Hons) Chemical Engineering and Advanced Materials

Experience

Contact me at 0129677674 I have done Bachelor in Chemical Engineering and have two years of teaching experience. I am currently teaching A Level and IB Chemistry; IGCSE Mathematics and Chemistry; and SAT Science at a tuition centre.

Tutoring Approach

I am passionate towards teaching young adults. I find out what the student's problem is and will teach according to what is best for the student to get the excellent grades he/she needs. My goal is to prepare the student for his/her examination.

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

BSc, PGCE, MSc

Experience

I completed my BSc in Psychology then continued to do my PGCE to be able to teach Psychology up to college level. I chose to further my studies by doing an MSc in Health Psychology. Throughout these degrees, I have 3 years tutoring experience mainly A-levels/IB to degree students. Being a qualified teacher and teaching in the UK, I am aware and up to date with the various exam boards and have insight as to what skills are required for understanding theories and concepts.

I have also had a year of teaching in an international school in Malaysia where I taught Global Perspectives and Psychology. I have the experience with also aiding in university guidance and UCAS applications. 

Tutoring Approach

I plan my lessons according to the needs of the students and adapt to their strengths and weaknesses. Some topics can be dry and therefore, I do my best to make it interesting by incorporating out the box ideas such as, playing Jenga to make it more engaging and memorable for the students. I also set homework that plays to the students strengths to make them feel more confident, which has proven to be beneficial!

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.

Education

Bachelor's of Pharmacy

Experience

I've got lots of experience tutoring friends and family members. I don't believe in using a standard teaching style for all students. Instead I will design my lessons around each individual as I see what suits their need. My aim for students is not just to score well in exams but I am passionate to see my students to actually have an in depth understanding of the subject. I believe everyone has the capacity to learn, tutors just need to find a way or method to get through a concept to them.

Tutoring Approach

As mentioned above, I'm not going to do the lazy way of teaching which is to just get students memorizing stuff and regurgitation info, and doing endless workbooks, instead I will have a interactive lesson with the student to explain concepts to them. I'm good with explaining anything using analogies, so that way lessons won't be dill and boring, but instead students are able to understand a new concept in ways that they can identify with.

Education

Cambridge International Diploma for Teachers (2012), MBA (OUM 2011), B Economics (UM 1995)

Experience

I have been teaching in local private and international schools since 2001, including overseas teaching. I am well-versed with the syllabus for PMR, SPM, O Levels, A Levels and IB. I have been tutoring since 1993. My students range from Year 10 to A levels students. I also coach working adults for public speaking, Business English, Cv and report writing and Interviews.  My teaching style is based on understanding, analysis, concepts and questions. My strength is to simplify difficult concepts. The overall aims are building up understanding, application of knowledge and excelling in tests.

Tutoring Approach

The syllabus is broken down into sections that allow effective coverage within given time, aligned to class tests/exams. My lessons are made interesting with analogies, practical examples and links to daily life/real events, thereby making it one of a kind. My technique is explanation followed by questioning to check the student's understanding, demonstration and culminating in the student's unaided problem solving. Assistance, support and reinforcement will be provided as necessary.

Education

Presently a PhD candidate (Chemical Eng.). Have completed M.Eng (Chemical Eng.) and B.Eng (Chemical Eng.)

Experience

I'M A SPECIALIST tutor for CHEMISTRY, MATHS & ADD MATHS with 11 years of experience. My track record: 80% of committed students of mine scoring A- and above as their overall score. In fact, I had few border-line students who eventually became top scorers in their schools respectively after taking my classes.11 years of teaching experience for students from national, international schools & universities. Currently a PhD research candidate in a public university.

Tutoring Approach

Exam focused intensive classes for students preparing for any particular examination/ certification, Topical learning for adults. Class modes: "ONE-to-ONE" and GROUP TUITION available where the tutor will conduct the lesson at the student's residence. Other subjects such as the following can be arranged upon request: ENGLISH, MALAY, TAMIL, ECONOMICS, GEOGRAPHY, BUSINESS STUDIES / PERDAGANGAN, COMPUTERS/ IT, ENGINEERING MODULES, ACCOUNTING, STATISTICS, CALCULUS, HISTORY, PENGAJIAN AM, Students may not be aware of exactly what they do not know. Students should learn the art of 'knowing what they don't know'. Examinations are just an expression of what we know and do not know regarding a particular topic. For instance, in the event that a student gets 40% for his science examination correct, this means that he has yet to have an understanding of the other 60% of his science subject. The approach to increase his marks is to understand what he/ she still does not understand, and assist them understand and comprehend that. Sadly, many students never know what they don't know with regards to the subject matter which they're learning. Preferable Rate: University (~RM110-150/ hr) Pre-U (~RM80-130/ hr) SPM (~RM45-60/ hr) PMR (~RM40-50/ hr) UPSR (~RM30-35/ hr) Qualification: Present: PhD candidate (ongoing) M.Eng (Chemical Eng.) B.Eng (Chemical Eng.) Experience: 11 years of solid teaching experience for students from national, international schools & universities. Currently a PhD research candidate. Have coached children of expatriates and VIPs. Why choose me? 1. Years back I was a student like you. I acknowledge the hardship of being a student 2. I put myself in a learner's shoe during lessons 3. Curiosity and Attitude towards learning is more important than knowledge in heart 4. Student's improvement in a specific subject within 3 months is assured as long they stay committed

Llb Hons (London)

Experience

During my experience as a teacher, I've realised that every student has different ways of learning. I try my utmost to teach my students in the way they most prefer enabling them to understand the subject matter better. I will use a lot of past year papers to get students accustomed to answering questions. 

Tutoring Approach

I would tell the student in advance on which topic I'd be covering during the following class to allow them some time to prepare. This allows an efficient learning system whereby no time is wasted in explaining something the student already knows.
