Personally Interviewed

Our tutors go through a rigorous selection process, having been interviewed to assess their teaching skills and subject knowledge. They have extensive tutoring experience with a track record of success, helping students achieve their academic goals.

Tutoring Experience

I have been tutoring since 2020 alongside my degree, working with over 40 international students in the past four years and accumulating more than 500 hours of teaching experience. Fluent in both Mandarin and English, I can conduct sessions in either language, allowing students to learn in the way that best suits their needs.

Tutoring Approach

My approach is tailored to each student's needs, starting with theory review to build confidence and understanding, followed by practice with past papers to apply knowledge under exam conditions. I use exam questions of varying difficulty to identify whether challenges stem from unfamiliar question styles or conceptual gaps.

For entrance exams like the ESAT and PAT, I provide targeted preparation, focusing on time management, effective answering techniques, and strategies to navigate the exams confidently. Additionally, I help students articulate their scientific reasoning, improving their ability to express ideas clearly, which is crucial for interview success.
