My tutoring philosophy centers on creating a supportive and engaging learning environment where students feel comfortable to express their ideas and challenges. I begin each session by assessing the student's current understanding and identifying specific areas for improvement. I employ a variety of teaching techniques, including interactive problem-solving, visual aids, and real-world applications, to make complex concepts more accessible. By customizing my approach to align with each student's unique learning style—whether they are visual, auditory, or kinesthetic learners—I ensure that the material resonates with them. During a typical session, I encourage active participation through discussions and questions, guiding students to develop critical thinking skills. I also incorporate regular feedback and assessments to track progress and adjust our learning objectives as needed, fostering a collaborative and dynamic tutoring experience.

Hong Kong International School

As a tutor, I believe every student has a unique approach to learning. Therefore, I strive to tailor my lessons to their individual needs and assist them with any assignments or practice problems they may encounter. When teaching a new concept, I often explain it by connecting it to something they have already learned and understood. Students find it easier to retain knowledge and grasp new material by making these connections.

Anika Kamat

Anika

UC San Diego

While I understand that different students learn through different methods and speeds, I am a firm believer that consistent practice and interactive study is the best way to internalize concepts for future application. Throughout lessons, while I will lecture if needed, I prefer to work through problem sets, ask questions, and clarify understanding through practice rather than memorization. By this methodology, students are able to think on their feet when approached with an unforeseen problem or difficult concept. I think that one to one tutoring is a great opportunity to see difficult subjects in a new light, and ultimately, I aim to enrich curiosity and passion for learning in any student I teach.

German Swiss International School

When I first start teaching, I usually read over the curriculum and make a timetable for the lessons I want to teach the kids. Initially, we would acquaint ourselves with every subject by imparting the fundamental ideas and providing them with exercises and examples to make sure they grasped everything. In order to help the students learn more and do well in class, I personally like to provide them with more difficult ideas related to the subject. I employ a variety of techniques and adjust to the needs and preferences of each student. For instance, some pupils would rather work with drawings and objects than with formulae and numbers. Getting used to them can help them advance in their own way, which will ultimately lead to getting high grades and understanding of the subject.

Jules de Baudry d'Asson

Jules

Bocconi University

My teaching philosophy centers on fostering a deep understanding and appreciation of the subjects taught. I strive to create an engaging learning environment by emphasizing problem-solving techniques and putting into light the concrete element in every exercise. In a lesson, I start by reviewing parts of the curriculum that have not been fully understood before moving on to exercises either from the student’s book or tailored to match the student’s needs, focused on the topics that he/she doesn’t feel confident with.

Leong Cheng

Leon

HKUST

My approach to tutoring is grounded in a personalized style of learning, particularly for middle and high school students who have already developed specific study habits. Drawing on my own diverse academic experiences, I can quickly identify the optimal way for each individual student to grasp concepts and apply them effectively.

My teaching style focuses on progression and interactive engagement. I ensure students fully understand the fundamentals before moving forward, guiding them through the problem-solving process so the learning is deeply reinforced.

Typical tutoring sessions begin with a brief casual conversation to put the student at ease, followed by warmup questions to assess their current understanding and build confidence.  Sessions usually end with a more challenging problem that allows me to evaluate the student's learning and adapt my plan for the next lesson.

Wesley Tan

I believe that every student is unique, and I tailor my teaching methods to suit individual learning styles and needs. My sessions are interactive and engaging, encouraging students to ask questions and think critically. I use a variety of teaching techniques, including real-world applications, visual aids, and practice problems, to make the material more relatable and easier to grasp.

In a typical session, I start by reviewing previous lessons to reinforce learning and address any lingering questions. I then introduce new topics in a structured and comprehensive manner, breaking down complex concepts into manageable parts. Throughout the session, I encourage active participation and provide immediate feedback to ensure understanding. I also assign targeted practice exercises to reinforce learning and track progress.

My goal is to build confidence and self-sufficiency in my students, helping them achieve academic success while making learning an enjoyable and enriching experience. By creating a supportive and positive learning environment, I aim to inspire a genuine interest in the subject matter and a lifelong love of learning.

My tutoring approach is to make sure to teach the students to have good fundamentals. Having a good foundation in maths is very important in order to move onto the next level especially when you get older. Individualising the sessions is also very important as each student have different needs and have varying paces of learning. I will also help students to get to a point where they are good enough to teach someone else on a topic, which shows that they understand it well.

Asha Gill

In general, my aim is to make learning both interesting and rigorous for students so they can simultaneously achieve the results they want while also developing a curiosity for the subject. I enjoy getting to know my students as individuals and learners so I can support them to the best of my ability by tailoring my teaching approach to their unique needs. In a typical session, I will try to address any gaps in their current knowledge of the course material using both school-provided and private resources, before returning to reinforce those concepts at a later session.

Hong Kong International School

Learning and receiving an education is no easy feat. There are certainly challenges when it comes to both the teaching we receive, as well as our interpretation and retention of the material we are taught. That is primarily why my tutoring approach revolves around flexibility—adapting to individual styles and needs for learning, and changing my teaching rather than a student's preferred learning methods. In this way, I can build confidence in my students whilst simultaneously teaching them more efficient ways to absorb and genuinely understand the information they are asked to learn. I often ask for learning materials beforehand to truly familiarize myself with the subject before going into teaching, and plan multiple methods of explanation and practice to ensure a holistic learning experience. A typical session for a subject such as math or science begins with a revision of old test papers or homework from the week that gave the student trouble, followed by an explanation of key concepts and strategies for improvement. Lastly, the remainder of the session would be filled with time to practice and apply the skills and content the student has just been taught or introduced to.

Marcus Fong

Marcus

University of Cambridge

With both standardized and AP tests, I often encourage my students to look beyond the content. I use questions beyond the test level to solidify my students' understanding and often ask them to explain concepts in their own words such that they can think about topics coherently in their own words.Following the supervision system Cambridge employs, I often lead students through more of a discussion, talking about topics in different ways to ensure their understanding and linking separate topics in such a way that they all mould together. Only when I feel that my students' understanding is at an appropriate level do I begin to present them with practice questions. By that point, these questions are second nature to them.

Ryan  Choi

Ryan

Hong Kong International School

My main goal when teaching is to not only enhance academic performance but to prepare my students for high school and beyond by encouraging them to challenge themselves. One technique that I find helps solidify understanding is asking the student to explain their thinking and going through the steps of a solution deliberately. I find that once a student is able to articulate WHY a certain method is used rather than just grinding through practice problems, real understanding and learning are achieved. I find that many students are often hesitant to make mistakes and to ask for help, while I encourage it as they are true signs of learning. I aim to create a welcoming and supportive experience for my students.

My methodology in teaching focuses on catering to the student’s specific needs. When it comes to teaching English, I draw from my own experience; choosing books and writing prompts that will spike the student’s interest and inspire them to view English studies as a hobby rather than just homework.My approach to teaching maths is more hands on. I bring in personalised worksheets and exercises that will draw their attention and create an exciting learning environment. Beyond teaching syllabus content, I focus on problem solving techniques that the student can apply to various areas of study.

Brigette Kwan

Brigette

University of Hong Kong

The core of my teaching philosophy is to foster a passion for the topic at hand — I believe this is the key to effective, lifelong learning. I usually begin with an interactive approach to introduce topics, followed by allowing many opportunities to ask questions and practice newly acquired skills/knowledge. My tutoring aims to ensure a multi-faceted yet in-depth understanding of theoretical concepts, as well as how to apply these concepts in real-life and academic contexts.

Christopher Yue

Christopher

Hong Kong International School

As a tutor, my most important job is to boost the student's academic confidence, as I believe that academic confidence holds the key to optimized academic performance. I try to increase academic confidence through practice, repetition, and positive feedback. I also make sure to prepare several different methods to explain concepts; sometimes, explaining a concept one way does not stick to the student well, and as a tutor who emphasizes understanding over memorization (although memorization may sometimes be necessary), explanation of concepts in a way that students can understand is very important.

Gaile  Ng

When it comes to teaching, especially in a tutoring setting, it is crucial to build a collaborative partnership with my student. As mentioned in my biography, I feel that education should be something that excites students. So I tend to open my lessons by getting to know my student, to gain a better understanding of what type of learner they are and ultimately try to connect their genuine interests to their education. Beyond forming a collaborative partnership with the student, I also try to work with their parents to gain a better understanding of what they are hoping to get out of these lessons. Whether it simply be better grades or study habits, I always do my best to satisfy my clients needs. I also try to make myself available through email with my students, so they can communicate any queries they may have outside of designated class times. As I understand that an hour or two every week may not be sufficient.

I believe actively engaging with students and tailoring my teaching approach to meet their individual needs is very important. I utilize interactive discussions, hands-on activities, and visual aids to make learning both enjoyable and relatable. As a TA for the HKIS Hum 1 in Action course, I have honed my ability to support students in their learning process and adapt to individual learning needs. Before each session, I gather information about their current and upcoming topics to ensure the student's preparedness. I recognize that students have different learning preferences, so I provide auditory learners with clear explanations and engage in meaningful discussions, while incorporating visual aids and mnemonic devices for those who benefit from them.

Whether it's teaching two-digit multiplication or complicated trigonometric functions, I love sharing the hidden intircacies and secrets that math has to offer.

Roy  Hu

Roy

Hong Kong International School

I try to be more flexible with the way I tutor, as I believe that in many cases the student knows how and what they want to learn. Typically, my lessons start with schoolwork review, as I think it sets the groundwork and allows me to run parallel with the material at school. Then, I try to teach new, and more fun content, whether it be a very niche historical topic or ways to argue better. Of course, I always try to customize and improve every lesson, and am always open to trying new methods to help and support students.

Cadence  Chang

Cadence

Hong Kong International School

I believe that students learn best when they interact with their material, whether through flashcards, games, or mind maps. In my Chinese classes, I like to break down my student's material into bite-sized chunks for them to process, and we play games with the new vocabulary to familiarize them with the words. Whenever I feel that they are getting distracted or bored, I switch approaches and try a new way to help them out, whether it be watching a video or singing a song. For students who are not native speakers, I speak to them in Chinese and then repeat the same thing in English to expose them to more vocabulary. In my Math classes, I structure my lessons based on my students' questions with homework and work from there. I spend half the time working through practice problems with them, backtracking whenever they feel lost. Then, I summarize the main takeaways from our lesson and come up with a few problems for them to practice. I try to let my students try the questions a few times before I step in and give them hints, giving them time to recall their knowledge and practice their skills.

Beatrice  Lam

Beatrice

Hong Kong International School

In my tutoring sessions, I employ a friendly and personalized approach focused on active, hands-on learning. Rather than passive lecturing, I strive to engage students through interactive activities, real-world examples, and collaborative problem-solving. Drawing on my knowledge of child development and learning psychology gained from taking AP Psychology, I carefully tailor my teaching methods to the unique needs and learning styles of each student. For some, that may mean providing more visual aids and kinesthetic exercises, while for others, it involves breaking down concepts into manageable steps or incorporating their interests and hobbies. By taking the time to understand my students as individuals, I am able to create a comfortable, supportive environment where they feel empowered to actively participate, ask questions, and take ownership of their learning. Through this dynamic, student-centered approach, I aim to not only help students master the subject matter, but also cultivate their critical thinking skills, problem-solving abilities, and overall academic confidence.
