► Tutoring Approach ◄


■ Lessons and planning ■


◘ All my lessons are planned and tailored to my student’s needs. After every class, the student’s strengths and weaknesses are noted, and future studies are designed accordingly.

◘ I make use of analogies and diagrams to explain abstract concepts clearly.

◘ Detailed and regular feedback is given to parents bi-weekly or monthly.

◘ I develop a good rapport with my students to make our lessons more engaging.

◘ I instil confidence in my students by helping them to understand and master topics they’ve been struggling with. This is in addition to my words of encouragement and stories from my struggles in the past.

◘ Diagrams are always used as much as possible since it is always effective in understanding and solidifying abstract concepts.

◘ I train my students in memory techniques that I have personally adapted for my subjects, leaving students in awe. It works very well for abstract concepts as well.


■ Technology and resources ■


◘ Use the latest cloud services, computers and peripheral devices that aid in my lessons online. I suggest my students have access to an iPad or graphics tablet that makes online classes seamless and no different to face-to-face ones.

◘ My students are taught to use the latest software to help them with their studies today and in the future. These include software in mind-mapping, time management, note-taking and cloud technologies.

◘ I extensively use my own tailor-made resources, whether presentations, worksheets or notes. I know exactly the topics and concepts most students struggle in, and I have resources for all of these.

◘ I regularly tailor resources for my students and teach them the tools needed to make their own.

◘ Online lessons can be done on Zoom, Skype or Google Hangouts.


■ Notes ■


◘ First introductory lesson is free and will consist of a small tailor-made assessment and a mini-lesson.

◘ Please get in touch with me for group class fees, as they are much less than the rates advertised on this site. My class sizes are less than 5 students, and I run classes regularly. Contact me for more information.

◘ For students abroad, please contact me about my availability considering the time differences.

  • When did you develop an interest in your chosen field and in private tutoring?

    My interest in physics and mathematics began early in my secondary school years, a period when I was captivated by the elegance of the fundamental principles governing the physical world. Watching documentaries on the discovery channel further deepened my interest, as well as many inspiring teachers who demonstrated the beauty and rigor of these subjects.

    My time at Oxford not only solidified my passion but also exposed me to a level of scholarly rigor and intellectual camaraderie that was immensely stimulating. It was during this time that I started to appreciate academic conversations and the flexibility of mind required to engage in them and the topics we were being taught.

    My interest in private tutoring came naturally as part of my academic journey. During my studies, I often found myself mentoring my peers. I always had a good intuitive understanding of various topics in my course and so this came in handy. Around this time I discovered that private tutoring as a line of work. At the start, it was very occasional work, but demand kept rising and I've been doing it for over a decade now.
  • Tell us more about the subject you teach, the topics you like to discuss with students (and possibly those you like a little less).

    As tutor, I have the pleasure of helping students through some of the most exciting and pivotal topics within my chosen fields. In physics, I particularly enjoy teaching mechanics and electromagnetism. Both of these subjects are enough to describe a very wide variety of phenomena that give my students an intuitive understanding of the world around them.

    In mathematics, I have a special affinity for calculus and linear algebra. Calculus is particularly important as a fundamental tool used in physics, it describes the mathematics behind change. Linear algebra, on the other hand, is very important for many different subjects including physics, engineering and computer science.

    While I find all topics engaging, I must admit that there are areas that can be more challenging to convey due to their abstract nature, such as certain aspects of pure mathematics like developing proofs. Students often find these topics less immediately applicable to the physical world, which can affect their motivation. However, I always have good analogies to help my students turn abstract concepts into more tangible ones.
  • Did you have any role models; a teacher that inspired you?

    I do not have a particular role model, as a free thinker, it is important to avoid attachment to a particular person or idea. However, there are many people who have inspired my way of thinking and living-from the stoics of ancient Rome to the pioneers of physics and the modern world. I am always in search of truth and ways to improve the world.
  • What do you think are the qualities required to be a good tutor?

    Patience, flexibility and hard work.
  • Provide a valuable anecdote related to your subject or your days at school.

    During my days at Oxford, we had a lecture on quantum mechanics, a subject notorious for being very counterintuitive. The professor (James Binney) posed a question about the wave-particle duality of light, a concept that had stumped even the brightest minds for decades.

    We tried to tackle the problem with the standard mathematical tools, but were getting nowhere. Sensing our frustration, the lecturer paused and shared an anecdote about Niels Bohr. Bohr once said, 'If you think you understand quantum mechanics, then you don't understand quantum mechanics.'

    This moment felt very profound to me. The professor explained that sometimes in physics, and in life, you have to accept the limits of your current understanding and work within them to push the boundaries further. Sometimes, reality simply refuses to conform to our sensibilities.
  • What were the difficulties or challenges you faced or still facing in your subject?

    I find particularly in physics that fundamental concepts are simply not taught in school classes. This makes it hard for students to have a good understanding of many topics such as magnetism, waves and electricity. I always make sure that my students are taught these before we move onto the topic at hand. Sometimes it is frustrating to have to do this, but the benefits manifest themselves later on. Within mathematics I find that most students do not have the fundamental problem-solving skills that would make their educational journey much easier.
  • Do you have a particular passion? Is it teaching in general or an element of the subject or something completely different?

    My passion is in trying to understand the world we live in. This is why I have so many interests that I try to stay up-to-date on. This is also why I am able to answer seemingly random questions that students ask me on the spot.
  • What makes you a Superprof (besides answering these interview questions :-P) ?

    I am patient, flexible and hard working. How can I expect my students to have these qualities when I do not have them ? Also, my experience with tutoring students with all different abilities, backgrounds and personalities definitely makes me a "Superprof".
