"Moulding the future of our nation"
As a tutor, the aim for me is to teach my students on how to improve in the fastest way possible, hence I have helped many students who are failing English, Geography and social studies to pass it and then improve further if the student has the sufficient runway to do it. (Foreign students I took who had an extremely poor grasp of English have gotten a pass and beyond in the O level within a few months through intense practice and revision)
This is done by teaching them different strategies and key points to take note of to tackle the paper, all of which I have learnt and used during my past exams. The rest of the lesson plan towards the exam is to practice these strategies to tackle the different papers and to also refine those strategies to the needs of the students to allow them to better improve their capabilities in the subject taught.
I strongly believe in the notion that "If you fail to plan, you plan to fail." I emphasize heavily on the importance of “paper strategy” planning to my students so that they would be clear on the steps and strategies to apply for the examinations in each component of the paper, and hence be in “the zone” the minute the invigilator says "You may begin”.
