Hi I'm Ms Carol Chan!

I teach the following:
  • Primary Mathematics & Science
  • Holiday Intensive Programmes for PSLE Grammar, Oral, and more.

I believe the sky's the limit for all students if they BELIEVE they can.

Cherished Memories

When my ex-students meet me, they still recognise me. They will greet me and share how they have been progressing and express their appreciation. Every student who has stepped foot into my class never fails to leave a lasting impression. In the few short hours they have with me each week, we gradually develop a strong and unique teacher-student rapport. As we progressively tackle small topical challenges to meet the crucial year end examinations, students must recognise that working together in this partnership, is a vital factor of their success and continuous learning.

My Teaching Style

I teach with a balance of firmness and fun. I love to engage the students and find opportunities to encourage and affirm their efforts, especially the weaker/ quieter/ shy students. It gives me indescribable satisfaction when I see my students' confidence in the subject grow over the course of the year. I enjoy challenging the students to think out of the box. There will be controlled lively discussions for students to explore and expand their ideas.

About Me

Give a man (child) a fish and you feed him for a day; TEACH a man (child) to fish and you feed him for a lifetime - Maimonides

Teaching as a tutor, in KRTC, has allowed me to devote more focus and energy to my students; Compared to the heavy workload of a full-time teacher, being a private tutor has enabled me to spend quality time with my family and, as a result, I have more bandwidth to think about the lesson plan, analyse my student's performance, and tackle patterns of problems that surface.

The low ratio of students to teacher, in my class, also makes it easier to pinpoint specific problem areas and correct them on the spot.

Ex-Student Experience

I had a student, K. He had some concentration issues and a very short attention span. K did well to get into the express stream. The parents were ecstatic. The mother was so grateful that she made an effort to come back during a parent/teacher meeting just to express her appreciation to me for being so patient and understanding with K. I was very surprised she came because she knew I was unable to follow K into secondary school as I was not teaching that level then.
