First Lesson is FREE
Moving to HK from Ireland for 10 years with my wife (a foreigner), I can speak English (near-native, IELTS: 8.5/9, reading: 9, oral: 8.5, writing, listening: 8.5), Cantonese, Mandarin, and Spanish while earning a Bachelor of Computer Science at the University of Melbourne (I took many math subjects, such as computation, game theory, and data analysis, etc.) and a Master's degree in Computer Science at Victoria University of Technology in Australia (my dissertation focused on game theory, highest qualification). I have been tutoring (English, mathematics, coding) since my return in 2019.
In tutoring mathematics, with my score A in general Mathematics and B in Additional Maths in HKCEE, and C in Pure Mathematics in HKAL respectively, I teach maths, add maths, and further maths from P4 to S6 in DSE, year 4 to year 11 in IGCSE, and year 4 to year 11 in IB Diploma. I am mostly familiar with IGCSE and IB Diploma because my son also studied in GCSE in Northern Ireland and my wife is an English teacher too. Under such strong and resourceful support, many textbooks, notes, and exercises are provided to the students.
Therefore, some of my accomplishments are: 1. assisting a P6 (band 3) pupil to go to Malvern College (an international school accepting around 15 students every new year among 12,000 applicants), 2. assisting an F1 student to go on to study F2 in Diocesan Boy School (100/10,000 applicants), 3. assisting an F6 student who is not good at English and was initially evaluated to score 2 but eventually achieved a score of 3 in DSE English.
Nowadays, my students come from international and local schools such as Malvern College, Choi Kai Yau College, Yew Chung College, Po Chui College, St. Francis Primary School. I can design a tailor-made course for every single student and recently finished a diploma in Introduction to Teaching English as a Second Language from Alison Corp. Read less
