Finding An Online Tutor In Singapore

Finding An Online Tutor In SingaporeThere are many options for parents who wish to have their child's tutoring performed by an online tutor Singapore. Parents who are not comfortable with the idea of physically meeting the tutor and choosing the child's class may want to use the internet as a substitute. Even if parents do not choose this method, they should at least find out the best way to find an excellent tutor online Singapore. Let's examine what parents can do to ensure that their child's tutor is as qualified as possible.Firstly, parents should take the time to conduct thorough research about the tutors available in the area. The internet is a great resource for researching potential tutors. Some tutors require that parents provide references, while others are open to all references. A list of recommended tutors is also available, and parents should compare this list with the many choices they found on the internet. Parents should only consider tutors that are located near the ir home, because some are very good, but do not have the time to travel.If parents are interested in finding a tutor online Singapore, they should consider searching for one on a recommendation site. The best option is to look for the recommendations of friends or relatives who have had good experiences. Tutors will want to check references from friends and family, so be sure to obtain the names of anyone the tutor wants to use as references. Some tutors also offer incentives such as small cash bonuses, discounts on tutoring sessions, or other services. These are usually offered by highly recommended tutors.The online tutors should have a website that has contact information. In addition, they should have a phone number available, and a website should provide details about the day and times when the tutor is available. It is best to contact the tutor using email, instead of making any phone calls, because many parents are wary of their children talking to strangers over the internet . A request should be made for an appointment and a Skypeshould be used for the meeting.Parents may also need parental guidance regarding how to care for the child while the tutor is absent. Make sure that the child does not consume too much caffeine or alcoholic beverages before their session with the tutor. Some parents will need to work with their children to come up with a schedule. While there is no specific age at which it is acceptable to have a session with the tutor, most young children can attend in their own time.If the tutor cannot meet a parent's schedule, the parents should make sure that the tutor has a list of times that they can attend to teach their child. For example, they may have set times when they are free and willing to come and talk to the child. Tutors are sometimes in the office on Friday and Saturday mornings, so a parent can find a good tutor by looking online to see if they have scheduled time slots.If parents do not have time to visit a tutor before an d after the school year begins, they may find that they have more problems in the summer and winter months. Tutors in Singapore are only required to keep their office hours during the summer, so parents should make sure they have plenty of time to be there when they wish to be there. Some parents may have limited transportation, and when they do not have their children, it is difficult to get the tutor to the child's convenience.

Creating Homework Stations for Kids with ADHD

Creating Homework Stations for Kids with ADHD Like it or not homework is about to become part of your childs daily routine when school starts back up in the fall. For kids with ADHD, getting into the habit of doing homework is never easy. Fortunately, parents can help make the adjustment a little less painful by having a homework station filled with supplies and ready to go by the first day of school. Creating a homework station that works for kids with ADHD means considering their unique organizational, motivational, and attention-related challenges when planning the location, the supplies, and the clutter control strategies. Location Kids who dont have ADHD may be able to sit down in any corner of the house or bedroom and get their homework completed without any problem. But, when a child has ADHD, its a different story. Where he or she does homework can have a big impact on how quickly and accurately he or she gets it done. Monitoring: Kids with ADHD need to be monitored during homework time. Without supervision, they are much more likely to procrastinate instead of getting started right away, and once they do get started they will lose focus more quickly. Monitoring and supervising your child doesnt mean sitting next to him or her during homework time, but it does mean being someplace where your child can see you and where you can check-in while he or she is working. Consistency: Every childs homework station is different, and kids with ADHD may have some unique preferences some may prefer to stand while they work, others may be most comfortable working on the floor instead of sitting at a desk. But all kids with ADHD should do their work in the exact same spot every day. They will quickly come to associate this homework spot with homework time, making it easier for them to transition quickly from play time to work time. Having a consistent homework spot also eliminates nightly time-wasting arguments or negotiations with kids about where they will be doing their homework. Supplies Making sure that every homework supply your child needs is readily available at his or her homework station is important for kids with ADHD. Why? Searching for supplies and sharpening pencils are two of the most popular (and most effective!) homework procrastination strategies! Wondering which supplies to include? Heres a list to get you started: Sharpened pencils (at least 5 well sharpened pencils) Pencil sharpener Eraser (one that works well) Colored pencils or crayons Paper (printer paper lined loose-leaf paper) Scissors Glue stick Ruler Timer (setting time limits and time goals will be an important part of the homework routine) Clock A place to hang their backpack near their homework station Access to a computer nearby A large hard surface as a work area A comfortable chair (based on your childs preferences) Clutter-Free Organization Clutter is a huge distraction for kids with ADHD, especially when they are doing homework. Maintaining a clutter-free homework area will help your child get started on homework quickly and stay on task. It will also make it much easier to notice when he or she is running low on supplies or has managed to misplace or break all his or her pencils (again!). via Simple Made Pretty via Apartment Therapy Create an organized supply system: All kids would benefit from an organized supply system, but for kids with ADHD organization is practically essential. Instead of using a single shoebox, supply bin, or drawer to store their supplies, use individual cups, bins or a divided tray. Label each compartment with the supplies that should be included. If your child doesnt have a dedicated desk and will be working at the kitchen table or on the floor with a lap desk, then use a supply caddy with labeled compartments that he or she can move to and from the homework location each day. Just remember to place only one type of supply in each compartment and use labels liberally. Create a clutter-clean up routine: The best way to manage clutter is to prevent it from building up in the first place. As part of your childs homework routine, have him or her put all his or her supplies away, throw out loose papers, and sharpen the pencils as soon as his or her homework is finished. This way the workspace will be well stocked and clutter-free the next time your child sits down to do homework. Having your childs homework station set up and ready to go by the start of the school year will help him or her transition more smoothly into a daily homework routine. Having clear expectations around homework and putting a homework when-then plan into place are also essential for homework success.

Volunteer With Heart Ryan Hong - Heart Math Tutoring

Volunteer With Heart Ryan Hong - Heart Math Tutoring Volunteer With Heart: Ryan Hong Volunteer With Heart: Ryan Hong April 22, 2015 Ryan Hong, a Market Growth Development Consultant at Wells Fargo, believes that a foundation in math is essential for all children. He learned about Heart through Wells Fargo’s Volunteer Chapter and became a tutor after hearing how engaging and effective the sessions can be. Ryan works with two second graders at Winterfield Elementary in east Charlotte, where Heart volunteers tutor 50 students across grades 1â€"5. Why did you become a volunteer? “It was an opportunity that I’ve not come across: tutoring math to at-risk students that is flexible with my work schedule and with a creative curriculum that makes learning fun.” What are some of your favorite moments from working with the students? “When the student plays a timed math game and gets all the answers correct, you can hear the confidence and excitement in their voice. It is rewarding when you see their confidence building, their mind in full-throttle, and their motivation in learning new math strategies. When we finish our tutoring sessions, the students are rewarded with a sticker for a job well done. It’s at this time when you can see how proud they are of what they have learned. They save the stickers on their progress folder to share with their family and friends.” What would you tell someone who is thinking about becoming a volunteer? “Having fun teaching math + being flexible with work schedule = a rewarding feeling, knowing you’re making a positive impact in the future of these children. When I get each student from class, the first thing I start with is a smile and a high five. They get excited to come to tutoring because they know it’s fun! You don’t have to be a math wiz to tutor because the curriculum is extremely easy to follow!” You work full time at Wells Fargo. How can you also commit to weekly tutoring? “I tutor from 7:45 to 8:45 a.m. on Wednesdays and arrive to work by around 9:15 to 9:30 a.m. Most days, I have to be at work at 8:30 a.m. I have appreciated flexibility and encouragement from Wells Fargo to be able to take time out of the day to do this meaningful work.” Ryan is one of 16 tutors across Heart’s five partner schools who work for Wells Fargo â€" a valuable partner to Heart both in employee volunteer engagement and in funding. Want to become a tutor? Heart Math Tutoring will need more volunteers for the 2015/2016 school year! With a commitment of one hour per week, any community member can help a struggling student gain the skills and confidence he/she needs for long-term success. Click here to express your interest!

This Young Artist Gained Her Confidence With Kumon

This Young Artist Gained Her Confidence With Kumon This Young Artist Gained Her Confidence With Kumon Cara, 12-years-old, Math Level J, Reading Level II Art has a way of evoking emotion and inspiring creativity and imagination in everyone. Whether you are viewing Vincent van Gogh’s Starry Night Over the Rhone or even Andy Warhol’s Campbell Soup, it tells a story and brings an artist’s skills and passion to life. All mediums of art can often be criticized, and artists must maintain a sense of confidence and resilience to keep creating despite what the critics may say. The late French expressionism painter and sculptor Henri Émile Benoît Matisse once said, “Creativity takes courage.” 12-year-old Cara displays that same courage and confidence as a young artist. With a soaring imagination and natural gift of creativity, she has poured that into her painting and portrait drawings. Cara credits Kumon for boosting her confidence and giving her the will to never give up â€" which has helped her grow not only as an artist but as a student as well. “The most beneficial thing I’ve learned from Kumon is that putting the work in each day even when you want to give up, will help you reach your goals,” said Cara. “All of my hard work, whether it’s in the classroom or outside, will bring me the success I am striving for. I know that if I remain dedicated to practicing every day with painting or even my math work, I will become the successful individual I want to be.” Cara’s journey with Kumon began when she was just 6-years-old, and since then she has made remarkable strides in her academics. She has become a strong reader that has developed a solid foundation in comprehension and grammar skills. In the Kumon Reading Program, Cara has analyzed high school-level literature such as Ray Bradbury’s notable dystopian novel, Fahrenheit 451. She is even studying above grade level as she is working on algebraic concepts like factor theorem and quadratic equations in the Kumon Math Program. Cara has displayed a unique ability to express her creativity in art and to have the courage to share it with others. Her paintings have been selected and published in Celebrating Art, a publication dedicated to increase art appreciation and inspiring young artists around the country. Cara’s painting titled Owl was published in the summer 2017 edition, and was selected for a high merit award â€" noting excellence in her work. Cara is not only creative when it comes to art, she is also a synchronized swimmer, pianist, and dancer. Synchronized swimming, also known as artistic swimming, takes elements of swimming, dance, and gymnastics into a routine in the water. She has competed with her team on the provincial level. As a budding musician, Cara has been disciplined in her practice, currently studying under the grade 5 piano curriculum through the Royal Conservatory of Music. The Royal Conservatory of Music sets a national standard for young musicians, putting them on the path for musical excellence. The curriculums for each level include a range of advancing repertoire, techniques, musicianship, and music literacy â€" elements considered to lay down a successful foundation in musicians. Cara has her sights set on working for Google as a computer programmer. She credits Kumon for overcoming her fear of math, and now feels more confident that she can work in that field and learn coding. Cara’s hard work and discipline didn’t go unnoticed, as she was one of 55 students selected to attend the 2018 Kumon Student Conference in Calgary, Canada. We had the opportunity to speak to Cara about her Kumon journey. How has Kumon helped you inside of the classroom? Kumon has helped me in so many ways academically, but it really boosted my confidence. I now know so much more in math, which has really made a positive impact on my grades. In reading, I have stronger comprehension skills, which has helped me with reading more advanced books in school. Cara shakes hands with Kumon North America President Mino Tanabe What do you enjoy most about Kumon? I love learning new things and expanding my knowledge. If you could sum up your Kumon experience in one word, what would it be? Interesting. What did it mean to you attending the Student Conference? Attending the Student Conference gave me a sense of pride, and I felt that my hard work had paid off in so many ways. I really enjoyed meeting other Kumon Students that reached the same goals as me. This experience has encouraged me to want to continue and complete both the programs, and then help other Kumon Students succeed as well. I want to continue to be successful. What advice do you have for other Kumon Students? It won’t always be easy â€" but keep going and work hard. You will see how much you have improved, and you will continue to become better, and soon people around you will even recognize it. You will be able to reach your dreams!

4 Things Every High School Senior Should do Before Graduation Day

4 Things Every High School Senior Should do Before Graduation Day Irvine High School Tutoring Tips: 4 Things Every High School Senior Should do Before Graduation Day It’s an exciting time of year for students about to finish high school as they are closing one chapter and opening another. Students entering college in the fall will begin a whole new life as an adult student with a lot more freedom and the ability to start choosing classes that theyre interested in as well as making their own schedule. Before they get to college life, there are some things that every high school senior should think about before commencement to make sure they are on track and heading towards success our private Irvine college prep tutoring is here to help you prepare for college. 1. Look at your final GPA Its essential for high school seniors to take a look at their grades going into final exams and then double check their GPA before they forget high school forever. Its important that all grades are correct and that their scores are sent to the college of their choice, assuming they had a conditional acceptance. Theres often a little bit of paperwork to complete at the end of the year, and many students forget about it because they are excited about moving on from high school and enjoying summer (READ: Irvine Math Tutoring Tips: How to Excel at Math this Summer). 2. Apply for scholarships Students will likely already know if they won a substantial scholarship, but there are additional opportunities to help finance a college education. There are tons of smaller scholarships ranging anywhere from $500 up to several thousand dollars. Most require that the student already has been accepted and agreed to attend a particular college or university so now is the best time to apply. Many students will have to write a short essay or describe why they are deserving of a scholarship, something that can seem daunting after already taking AP exams and writing lots of essays for college admissions. However, writing a short essay can be a lot easier and take a lot less time than it would to earn $500 at a part-time job. Every penny makes a difference. 3. Attend the final meeting of a favorite club or organization Many seniors will stop attending extracurricular activities due to senioritis. Unfortunately, students are missing out on a lot when it comes to clubs theyve been a part of for the last couple of years. In the last weeks of school, students have an opportunity to say goodbye to good friends and teachers, contribute to the community they are leaving, and put their final stamp on their high school career. End-of-year meetings also tend to be more social than official so students will have an opportunity to enjoy the social aspect of extracurricular activities. 4. Celebrate your achievement It’s also important for seniors to take a step back and celebrate everything theyve achieved in the last four years. Theres been a lot of hard work, seemingly endless tests and exams, tons of tutoring sessions and group study, as well as plenty of homework assignments. Now is the time for students to celebrate all their hard work before moving on to the next chapter (READ: 4 Habits Students Need to Develop Before Going to College) . Graduating high school is a major accomplishment, and all grads should be very proud of the work they accomplished. While its important to celebrate and enjoy your summer, you also have to start preparing for college. Our private Irvine college prep tutors are here to help. Members of the TutorNerds team and our private tutors write every blog post. If you have any questions about our blog, please email us at pr@tutornerds.com.
