Information About Chris - Chris

Personal Description:

I am easy to get along with and very patient with my learners. Prior to commencement with my lessons with a first time lesson. I prefer a get-to-know-my-learner session. I also do an assessment to ascertain the learner's potentials, strengths and weaknesses… One thing I aim for - to transfer the passion I have on the subject to the person I tutor. I believe in making learning an enjoyable experience.

Tutoring Experience:

I have done teaching at various levels - formally and informally, from pre-school level to College / University level. At school, I would be asked by my classmates to assist on a subject, which in most cases was Maths, to assist them if they did not understand it from the teacher. Since then I fell in love with teaching and or tutoring. Since, 2017 tutoring became my full time career.

Tutoring Approach:

I take my learner through an assessment to determine their learning habits, strengths, weaknesses and strengths. Based on the outcomes I advise the learner and parents what the main cause of the poor performance is and I adopt a customized approach to the learner's learning needs.
I make use of continuous assessment so as to make sure that the learner is learning effectively.
It has always helped to get from the learner what methods were used when they were being taught at school. That has helped every tuition session to be effective.
Finally, the textbook of the learner is used as a teaching aid. There are rare instances where I need to recommend a better textbook and past exam questions
