(IGSCE, IB) Physics, Maths, Maths, Physics

I was educated at SMA Cita Hati Christian School and am currently an undergraduate with a full-ride scholarship at NUS CDE, majoring in Mechanical Engineering (Honours) with a minor in Innovation & Design and specializing in Robotics. Throughout my university journey, I have actively engaged in numerous interdisciplinary projects. One notable example is a Forest Surveying UAV, showcasing my versatility and expertise across various engineering domains. Specializing in Math and Physics at the IGCSE and IB levels, I have tutored numerous students from renowned International Schools in Singapore and Indonesia, including Anglo-Chinese School Independent, Ciputra School, and Surabaya International School. With firsthand experience in the challenging IB programme (i obtained a grade of 43/45), I provide a robust understanding of the IB rubric and a proven formula for academic success. I firmly believe that students learn best when given a tailored and interactive learning environment that caters to their individual needs. I structure my classes by incorporating practical applications and real-world examples into my teaching methodology. This approach not only helps students grasp complex concepts but also instills a deeper understanding of the subject matter. My students consistently demonstrate improvement, with an average increase of 2 points after a term under my guidance. My commitment to academic excellence is evident in the positive feedback received from students who appreciate my patient and effective teaching methods.

(Primary) English, Chinese

As a former special education teacher with two years of experience, I have a passion for helping students learn and succeed. I specialize in teaching English to primary school students and have experience working with students with various learning disabilities. My approach to teaching English involves using fun and easy methods, such as games and reading, to help students learn and retain information effectively. I have a track record of success in improving my students' English skills. One of my primary one students saw an improvement in their spelling scores from 6-8 to 10 within a short period. Additionally, I helped a student in a jump start preparation program at Lighthouse School shorten their program duration from 1.5 years to 1 year. I also employ digital tools like Kahoot to create interactive quizzes that review vocabulary and grammar, ensuring my lessons are engaging and effective. Currently, I am tutoring primary one and primary two students from mainstream schools in English, focusing on spelling, grammar, vocabulary, and writing skills based on the P1 & P2 MOE EL Syllabus. I am dedicated to individualizing lessons according to each student's learning needs, and I maintain open communication with parents to provide regular feedback on their child's progress. In addition to English, I have experience teaching Mathematics to primary one students. I use creative methods like Kahoot quizzes to make learning math fun and engaging. One of my students saw an improvement in their topical class test scores from 70 to 90 within a year, demonstrating my ability to inspire passion and interest in learning mathematics. As a tutor, I am committed to creating an engaging, supportive learning environment that caters to each student's unique needs and fosters their academic growth. In addition to my expertise in teaching English, I am also proficient in Chinese and offer Chinese tutoring for primary school students. I believe in using engaging teaching methods and tailor my approach to each student's individual learning needs. Although I do not have extensive experience in teaching Chinese, I have a strong foundation in the language and have achieved an A grade in primary school Chinese. I am confident in my ability to provide effective Chinese tutoring to primary school students, helping them improve their language skills in a supportive and engaging learning environment. As with my English tutoring, I am dedicated to individualizing lessons and working closely with parents to ensure each student's progress. I believe that learning a new language should be enjoyable, and I strive to create a positive and fun atmosphere for my students. Whether you are looking for English or Chinese tutoring, or a combination of both, I am committed to helping your child succeed and develop a love for learning languages.
