Type of Tutor: Ex-MOE Teacher

Experience (in year): 3 - 5 Years

Experience and Dedication: Tutoring Experience (in years): >15 yrs Brief description of my experience: My teaching pedagogy: I integrate time-tested, NIE-backed teaching pedagogies into my teaching. These include the concrete-pictorial-approach, the constructivist approach to learning and Skemp’s theory which gears my students towards in-depth conceptual understanding over superficial procedural knowledge. Also, my teaching is learner-centric. That is, I tailor my lessons to each student’s learning style and pace. This takes into account the fact that every child is unique; what works for one child might not work for another. Additionally, I am well-equipped in imparting the heuristics needed to tackle complex problem sums, to my students. The effective mastery of heuristics enables students to dissect daunting problems into simpler sub-problems which they can solve with confidence. Lastly, I ensure ample variety in my tutorial materials to empower students with maximum exposure. This enhances exam success and improves my students' abilities in tackling a variety of mathematical problems.
