Individual and Small Group Mathematics and Statistics Tuition in Singapore – University and Junior College level


I am a private tutor in Singapore specializing in:

Mathematics and Statistics - for University level, Junior College H2+H1, Integrated Programme (IP).

Chemistry and Physics - for Junior College H2+H1, Integrated Programme (IP).

[ Further Mathematics will be re-introduced at Junior College level as a H2 subject starting 2016. I will be able to provide tuition in Further Mathematics and have in-depth knowledge on the required topics including Linear Algebra, Statistics, and Numerical Methods. ]

I am a full-time tutor conducting individual home tuition and small group tuition at affordable rates. My students have benefited from private (one to one) home tuition. They have gained confidence tackling the difficult concepts presented to them, and have benefited from the personalized attention that one to one tuition provides.

mathlabsingapore We are proud to announce that we are now collaborating with The Maths Lab (Singapore). We will be working closely with them and pooling our materials and resources to bring you an engaging and productive maths tuition experience!

I am an Associate Faculty at Singapore University of Social Sciences. Usually, I lecture once or twice a week during semester time. Modules I have taught include Coding Theory, Fundamentals Of Mathematics, Advanced Linear Algebra, and Analysis II.
I love teaching students at all levels at university, and that is part of the reason I took up teaching assignments at SUSS.
However, please note that I do not take in SUSS Math (MTH) students for private tuition. For MTH105, MTH206, MTH208 and MTH351 students, please email me for assistance and I will be glad to assist you in your work.

My Approach to Private Tuition

The Singapore government and various Members of Parliament have voiced concerns about private tuition. Many have highlighted the stresses and pressures students are facing at school and have wondered if we are pushing our students too hard.

I believe that having private tuition is a personal choice that the student and parent must decide on their own. My students have benefited from private (one to one) home tuition. They have gained confidence tackling the difficult concepts presented to them, and have benefited from the personalized attention that one to one tuition provides.

At school or at tuition centres, it is difficult to give each and every student such individualized, personal attention. That is where home tutors like myself come in. I strongly believe that well-qualified tutors like myself have a role to play in helping students strengthen their academic foundations and achieve better grades.

My aim is to make the learning experience a pleasant and enriching experience for all my students.

More adults, including degree holders, are enrolling in the five polytechnics here.

According to the Ministry of Education, in 2019, 5,900 adults, including diploma, degree, master’s and PhD holders, had enrolled in the polytechnics to take up specialised and advanced diplomas.

Secondary school leavers also took advantage of special entry schemes, such as the Polytechnic Early Admissions Exercise and Polytechnic Foundation Programme, which afford them multiple admission routes into the polytechnics.

The Early Admissions Exercise is an aptitude-based scheme that allows students to apply for and receive conditional offers prior to receiving their final grades.

The polytechnic will also introduce an entrepreneurship programme open to all its students from any discipline in the new academic year starting April 2021. The topics will cater to students at varying levels of entrepreneurship and cover skills like starting a side hustle, e-commerce, accelerator programmes and incubation.

Singapore Institute of Technology to make some of its courses more interdisciplinary

by

05 January 2021

The Singapore Institute of Technology is making major changes to its curriculum to ensure its students are better prepared for the workforce of the future.

SIT is infusing about 15 to 20 per cent of its degree programmes with content that cuts across disciplines, starting with fields like accountancy, mechanical engineering and occupational therapy.

However, SIT will implement this interdisciplinary push in a more targeted way. Courses and projects will be customised for each degree programme so they stay relevant to the main profession students are training for.

Additionally, SIT is introducing more micro-modules outside students’ core studies in areas such as general knowledge and workplace skills. These include topics like intellectual property, understanding financial statements, career management and interpersonal skills.

All secondary schools and junior colleges to have one day of Home Based Learning every two weeks

by

05 January 2021

All secondary schools and junior colleges, including Millennia Institute, will start having one day of HBL every two weeks for some levels from Term 3 of next year.

These new Ministry of Education guidelines were recently announced by Minister for Education Lawrence Wong. They have been implemented with the aim of making blended learning a key feature of the schooling experience, to encourage students to be “self-directed, passionate and lifelong learners”.

All levels will implement blended learning by the end of Term 4 of 2022, and seeks to “provide students with more opportunities to learn at their own pace and to be empowered to take charge of their learning”, according to an MOE.

MOE also added that schools will determine the subjects and topics to be delivered on HBL days, which will be less structured than a typical school day. The emphasis will be on student-initiated learning, where dedicated time and space will be provided to allow students to pursue their own interests and learn outside of the curriculum.
