To me, nothing is more rewarding than seeing the students under your charge improving. The students of today are more sophisticated. Coupled with a more challenging curriculum, this presents a challenging climate for tutors.
Students need to see the purpose of their studies and believe that they not only can overcome it, but also excel in it. My strategy is to always try to motivate them to understand their purpose of studying and believe in themselves that they can make it.
This has served me very well as these students had become self- motivated to excel in what they are doing. More importantly, they believe they can. The power of motivation has enabled them to achieve beyond their expectations and self-belief.
I hope they can bring this to their adult life.

面对许多不喜欢华文,甚至讨厌华文的现今学生,作为一名华文教育工作者,我时常得挖空思,绞尽脑汁思考:
* 如何激发学生对华文的兴趣 ———我做到了,每当我看到学生们被我精彩又生动的讲解而感哭泣并产生共鸣时的情景。
* 如何帮助学生有技巧地回答理解问答———我做到了,我时常贯穿以生活例子,加上道德伦理的分析来加强他们的理解力并回答,还有最后的感想题,学生们之后一般都能得心应手。
每当迎来一批批的莘莘学子,又送走一批批即将或考完的学生,除了声声的叮咛要他们考好成绩之外, 最大的安慰莫过于即将毕业的学生的一句“老师,明年我还是要再上你的课,同样的时间,可以吗?”
常沉浸在家长深深又声声的道谢中,心中很明白,也常鞭策着自己要坚守“以心为本”,我们肩负着的不只是把书教好的使命,还有育人的工程,本着这样的心理素质,希望能走得更长。。更远。。。。
我和整个团队对待每一位学生的座右铭是以真心对待,不轻易放弃。

As a Mathematics tutor, my goal is always to help students do well for Math in the long run, not just to clear their exams.
Using methods tried and tested over 15 years, my students definitely get a better understanding and eventually gaining interest and confidence in the subject . I am very tenacious so I will never give up on a student!
My abundant positive energy is contagious (That means students find me very approachable and they enjoy my lessons!)
My dedication is unquestionable. (testified by many of my students who benefited from my extra consultation time)

Albert Einstein once said, "A person who never made a mistake, never tried anything new." Learning is a process that should never end. Through the process of making mistakes, students are able to process concepts with more in-depth understanding of the topics. This also urges students to seek challenges and overcome obstacles with the appropriate skills and techniques which are valuable assets to them in their course of education.
Being an avid reader, I always encourage my students to read. My students’ learning are enhanced through interactive debates and discussions that interest them. Fuelled by my quest for learning, I strive to inculcate the love for reading in my students and hope they will someday, turn out to be amazing writers.

Science is not just about memory work. It is the understanding of how things work that makes science a beautiful subject.
I like to use interactive ways to conduct my lessons, allowing my students to understand concepts through a fun and memorable way. I focus a lot on keywords and mind mapping skills as these increase association and imagination of students. Thus, improving their retention of concepts.
It is always a pleasure to see motivated young minds yearning to learn more.
