Test Preparation Tutors in Sunway, Petaling Jaya

Experience

Whenever we talk about experiences, what counts is the quality rather than the quantity. The Englishire project has given me ample opportunities to help English learners of all ages master the language.

 

Some of my coaching adventures in recent years include:

• coaching non-native English speakers to help develop their language skills, grammar and vocabulary
• coaching local and expatriate professionals to help improve their business and conversational English
• coaching business undergraduates in academic writing to help nurture their content management skills
• coaching candidates taking English proficiency tests to help strengthen their language foundations
• coaching schoolchildren to help foster a growth mindset and a lifelong learning culture

Be it directly or indirectly, each of the above has helped refine my approach to language coaching.

Tutoring Approach

Inspirational and educational, the Englishire approach is based primarily on transformative, intuitive and collaborative learning.

Fueled by everything that I got from my 27 years of experience in language learning, Englishire only has one ultimate goal in mind: create an environment that promotes your language skills (speaking, listening, reading and writing) so that you can gradually pick up the English language the natural way.

Rather than bombard you with tons of information that you can’t relate to, every single activity in Skilletro uses context to facilitate learning.

By getting quality exposure to real-life examples and scenarios, you’ll have a much better idea of how to use the language in everyday situations—whether for academic or work purposes.

Education

Bachelor Degree

Experience

Education

PhD

Experience

I have been Tutoring A-level students in Physics and Maths for over 3 years. Almost all my tutees have improvements in their grades. I also worked as demonstrator at the Sheffield 2nd Year laboratories. I trained students to use experimental equipment and programming languages. Throughout my PhD, I worked as a lab and tutorial demonstrator, teaching research skills and imparting knowledge to undergraduate Physics students.

Tutoring Approach

I believe that the approach you take with a tutee must be flexible. Everybody needs to be approached in a slightly different way in order to maximize their ability to approach a problem on their own when the exam comes around. I would always be willing to give a general overview of the part of the syllabus that the tutee is struggling with, but at the end of the day the tutee and I must work to recognise where they feel their weakest areas are, and change that into something they feel confident about. The strongest learning tool available to the tutee and I will always be past paper / textbook problems, but I prefer not to encourage a tutee to simply memorize a solution. I will try my hardest to teach the tutee the answers to the question, but I also intend to teach them where the answer comes from, without overwhelming them. I will start a session with a recap and ask the student if there are any areas they would like to focus on based on their own insight. Every tutorial I run will then contain an overview of the equations and facts the student will need to face that topic. Over time I will expect the student to be able to recall or recite the techniques they will need to face each topic at the start of the session. The rest of the session is an exercise in confidence building - taking the tutee through questions, asking them to identify the problem, and the techniques required to solve the problem, and then taking them through the solution step-by-step.

Education

BSc Actuarial Science (Hons)

Experience

Being an actuarial graduate from the UK, over the years, I have mastered the Malaysian system of education. My expertise is exam techniques, scoring strategy, spotting questions and easy learning methods including KBAT/HOTS application. I also coach students to prepare for their abroad university entrance including SAT/TOFEL/IELTS and detailed consultation on degree/career choices. I strongly believe that learning is not attained by chance, it must be sought for with passion and attended to with diligence. Hence, my diverse experience and unique teaching method will definitely help students not only to obtain excellent results but also build character and prepare for the future challenges.

Tutoring Approach

Before we start, there will be an honest conversation session with the parents to understand their expectations. Usually, the first session which is a trial session, will be used to gauge what standard the student is at and direct feedback will be given to the parents. Based upon the grasping ability of the students, learning methods will be taught.  The best materials like workbooks and notes will be recommended. Lots of practices will be given and the session is fully utilized, for e.g. student learn more in one class compared to tuition centers. Ã¢â‚¬â€¹Pick up the phone and call me.

Education

BSc Biochemistry, MSc Biotechnology (Current))

Experience

The best tutoring experience I've had was when I worked with a student who was struggling with math. Initially, they lacked confidence and found the subject daunting. However, through personalized attention, patient explanations, and tailored teaching methods, I helped them gain a deeper understanding of the concepts. Witnessing their gradual improvement and seeing their confidence grow was incredibly rewarding. Eventually, the student not only mastered the material but also developed a newfound enthusiasm for math. It was gratifying to know that I played a part in their academic success and self-confidence.

Tutoring Approach

The best tutoring approach is one that is tailored to the individual needs and learning style of the student. It involves:

Assessment: Understanding the student's strengths, weaknesses, and learning goals through assessments and discussions.

Personalization: Creating customized lesson plans and learning materials that address the specific needs and interests of the student.

Engagement: Keeping the student actively engaged in the learning process through interactive activities, real-life examples, and hands-on experiences.

Clear Communication: Explaining concepts clearly and patiently, using language and explanations appropriate for the student's level of understanding.

Positive Reinforcement: Providing praise and encouragement to boost the student's confidence and motivation.

Feedback: Offering constructive feedback and guidance to help the student identify areas for improvement and track their progress over time.
