Teaching Methodology
Time is shared between discussion, didactic instruction on skill building and actual completion of classwork. Significant focus is placed on types of questions that appear for Paper 1 and Paper 2, and the skills required to become proficient. A carefully structured Critical Thinking pedagogy is employed to ensure students can become critical thinkers.
Topics Covered
Topics such as Science & Tech, Environment, Media, Govt & Pol, Globalisation, Family, Ageing, Sports, Crime, Poverty, Discrimination, Ethics, Arts and other eclectic topics are covered to reflect changes in the Gp Syllabus since 2014.
Students receive
Updated topical notes, Video and sound bites on current affairs, Essay & Compre Papers from 1967 to 2020. Access to Gp portal for extra practice on the go. Model essays and multi-dimensional techniques to learn critical thinking and application.
I have Witnessed
I have witnessed Soviet Culture, Fall of Berlin Wall, Secret Soviet Cities, Apartheid in South Africa, tensions in Israel as well as Arab-Israeli life, the workings of the mafia and riots in India. I have witnessed prejudice and discrimination, as well as how social class creates unnecessary advantage for some. I have been invited to government feedback sessions and dialogues.
I have Worked
I have worked with intellectually disabled, and students with severe mental disability who require shock treatment. I have worked with geniuses from Mensa, and the intellectually bright who do not need a tutor but some one to have deep conversations with. I have worked to shape the minds of juvenile delinquents, drug addicts and criminals through direct education and social work. Prior to the education industry, I was enjoying marketing and business development in the consumer electronics and computer industry.
The Experience
These experiences have given me a perspective which very few people have. I deliver these perspectives to students and teach them how to analyse and be critical. I teach students to be aware, be able to make cogent arguments and plan their future.

TESTIMONIALS
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTION
1. Do you teach at home or at a centre?
Lessons are all online, in a 1:1 setting.
2. What is your experience?
I have taught locally and internationally general paper and sociology since 1996. From 2001-2006 I taught in Boston, Massachusetts. Since returning to Singapore in 2007 I have been a full-time tutor specializing in General Paper. For a brief period I was Training Manager for a tuition franchise. I have a degree in business and a degree in psychology. I also have professional certifications in teaching, training, curriculum design and assessment. In 2014 I published a book in collaboration with Educational Publishing House (EPH), the publishing arm of Popular Bookstore. In 2015, GP Issues was the best selling academic book in Singapore. GP Issues was still the best selling book in 2020.
3. Why should I select you as a tutor?
4. Can I have a trial lesson?
5. If you are so good, do you guarantee that I will get an A or B for GP?
6. Who else teaches the classes
7. How long is each class?
Each class is 1.5 hours. I do go over time by 10-15 minutes quite regularly.
8. How many students per class?
Each class is in 1:1 setting. Time is dedicated to teaching specifically what the student needs.
9. Do you give homework?
10. Do you mark homework and give feedback?
All homework is marked and returned to students. Feedback is always given and areas of improvement discussed.
11. Are there any mock exams?
12. What is your teaching style?
Due to time constraints, I take a didactic form of teaching, meaning I direct every activity. GP should best be explored and contemplated, but since students would have already done that in school, I focus on dealing with skills and content that are essential in passing and getting a good grade for GP. I incorporate Bloom’s Taxonomy in my teaching and use other teaching methodologies to ensure that the student understands the content, and has the skills to attempt the paper. We do a lot of application exercises in class.
13. Can you guarantee an A grade for GP?
14. What happens when a student cannot attend a class?
Make-up is to be taken within the week. If you can’t attend the make-up class, you lose the fee for that session.
15. What topics do you cover?
16. Do you spot questions?
17. You seem to be a senior teacher, but your fees are so low. How come?
18. How old are you?
In September of 2021, I will be 54. (Gifts, cards, gold and cash are welcome).
19. Why don't you call yourself the Best GP Tutor?
