<p>My general approach to teaching stems from my belief that students should be taught to fish and I should avoid fishing for them without their involvement. I believe in transferring thought processes, guidelines and exam techniques and will hand hold my students as they learn to apply these skills. </p> <b></b>
<p>For Sciences, I focus on three main aspects: (1) Content review and understanding, (2) Application of knowledge, and (3) Answering techniques. I always ensure that my students can understand the concepts before asking them to memorise the hard facts, for which memory techniques will be taught. In applying, I lead them through the thought process to logically deduce answers. As for answering techniques, I drill my students to have a critical eye for key words to keep them on track, and also apply the use of important terms and phrases when answering. Beyond exams, I personally like to share knowledge of how science is applied to daily life as it often piques their interest toward the subject. </p> <b></b>
<p>Math to me, is a subject which can not only develop analytical skills, but also nurture an attitude in the students. I request that my students practise all of their textbook and ten-year series questions. My approach aims to develop accuracy in their work before moving on to speed. For students with perpetual careless mistakes, I guide them to apply methods to minimise carelessness and instil a habit in them to check their work. Above all, I often connect the practice of Math questions with life philosophies and encourage my students to develop perseverance and prudence from which. </p> <b></b>
