A NEW LEARNING EXPERIENCE

Chemistry and Physics

Mr Joseph is passionate about Chemistry and Physics and has been teaching for more than 12 years. He specializes in upper-Secondary and H2 Chemistry and Physics. His experience is apparent in his thorough, yet concise concept maps and notes designed specifically for his students that will enhance their understanding and help them retain content in the long run. What distinguishes Mr Joseph from other Chemistry and Physics tutor is that he is meticulous in sorting out higher-order thinking questions according to topics and difficulty. This is so that the students’ practices will be more structured and efficient. Every question chosen, is with a purpose in mind, from deepening the students’ understanding, to exposing them to different permutations of questions from a single topic, in order to better equip them for examinations. Mr Joseph is often described by his students as a patient tutor who has a heart for his students. This will help students also learn better when they are comfortable to ask the tutor questions and less afraid to make mistakes in classes. Students will surely excel in Chemistry and Physics under the guidance of Mr Joseph.

“The students’ understanding of concepts is paramount.  Therefore, when the students finally grasp the initial daunting concepts, that is where my gratification lies.  I strongly believe that every student can learn effectively with apt explanations and progressive guidance.”

Mathematics

Mr Daniel has been teaching Math, both Secondary Math and H2 Math, for more than 10 years.

Math has always been his passion and he strongly believes in specialization. Thus, Math is his focus and he excels in it.   Another strength he brings forth is his belief in painstakingly doing his own notes for his students, sheet by sheet, worked example by worked example, tip by tip – totally comprehensive!  It is his steadfast passion that a good lecturer can only deliver effectively when he walks through every step that students take.  Solving Mathematical problems must be a piece of cake to any Math tutor but what differentiate Mr Daniel from the mass is that he delivers patiently and systematically without skipping a step, the Math concepts and solutions, so as to ensure that every student can grasp and understand the fundamentals at their pace before delving in depth. And when students gain confidence, especially the weaker ones, they will feel motivated to learn further, and excel.  This is the essence of Mr Daniel’s teaching methodology and belief.

“Getting the right answer is not my sole aim.  Rather, my focus is on helping students understand how to think like a mathematician to reach a solution to a mathematics problem –  Figure it out until it makes sense.

To encourage students to develop higher order thinking, the questions I pick will be much more challenging so that students are well prepared and ready for the exams.”
