Sharanya Shamugam: Your Trusted Tutor and Mentor

I am passionate about teaching both primary and secondary school students, spanning from Standard 1 to Standard 6 and Form 1 to Form 5 respectively. For primary school students, aged approximately 7 to 12 years old, I approach teaching with a focus on fostering a love for learning while building foundational skills in literacy, numeracy, and critical thinking. With engaging activities and a nurturing environment, I aim to instill confidence and curiosity in young minds, laying the groundwork for academic success and lifelong learning. Transitioning to secondary school students, ranging from around 13 to 17 years old, I understand the importance of guiding adolescents through their educational journey, supporting their academic growth, and helping them navigate the complexities of higher-level subjects. My teaching style adapts to meet the unique needs of each age group, ensuring that every student receives the guidance and support necessary to thrive academically and personally.

My tutoring approach is centered around creating a personalized and interactive learning experience tailored to each student's needs and learning style. I employ a variety of techniques, including multimedia resources, interactive exercises, and real-life examples to engage students and make learning enjoyable and effective. Emphasizing a communicative approach, I encourage active participation and meaningful conversation to enhance language acquisition and fluency.

Typically, my lessons are structured to last around 60 to 90 minutes, allowing ample time for instruction, practice, and feedback. I believe in striking a balance between covering core language skills such as reading, writing, listening, and speaking, while also addressing specific areas of improvement based on individual student goals and challenges.
