I obtained my primary and secondary level education in Singapore through a UK based curriculum. I graduated with a Bachelor's in Chemical Engineering, became a Cambridge International Examination Board registered teacher, graduated with a Master's in Education, and moved to Indonesia to teach IGCSE and A Level mathematics in an International school.  In the same year, a few of us started a learning centre and provided tutorial lessons and exam preparations for all levels between grades 1-12. There, I designed the mathematics enrichment program and tutored students preparing for the IGCSEs, A Levels and IB examinations.

 

In 2012, I married my beautiful and loving wife, and soon moved to Dubai.  After briefly teaching in a UK curriculum international school, I decided to continue with private tutoring in students' homes, designated locations and centres, and online.

 

As a teacher and tutor, I like to find common ground with my students and build on it.  I then use it as a source of examples, exercises and communication. During classes and sessions, I like to keep the atmosphere light, yet focused - students have enough pressure from school.

 

There are few greater satisfactions in life than seeing a child's face light up - be it through clarification, a growing appreciation for the subject, or through simple relief because he or she now knows how to do the third question.

 

In my spare time, I love to spend time with my son playing, playing sport, and reading.  I’m also a big fan of gaming, movies and TV, music and of course, eating.
