About Me
My preferred nickname is Maria, and I have a few months of teaching experience in teaching kids of age between 7-12 years old. I teach Economics to Form 4 and Form 5 students, and also cover Science for students from Form 1 to Form 5. I possess key teaching skills that enhance the learning experience, including effective communication, simplifying complex concepts, and strong classroom management. I communicate clearly, engaging students through questions and discussions to ensure understanding. I simplify challenging topics by breaking them down and using analogies, visual aids, and real-life examples for better retention. Additionally, my classroom management skills help create a focused and respectful learning environment by setting expectations, establishing routines, and addressing disruptions effectively. While I haven't yet achieved my greatest accomplishment, I am dedicated to gaining more teaching experience and equipping my students with the knowledge they need to excel academically. Seeing students achieve their highest desired grades is, and will always be, one of my most cherished achievements.
Teaching Method(s)
The teaching methods I provide include Direct Instruction, where I take a teacher-centered approach by presenting information in a clear and structured manner, often using lectures or demonstrations to ensure students grasp the content. I also utilize Discussion-Based Learning, engaging students in conversations that allow them to express their ideas, ask questions, and share different perspectives, which helps to deepen their understanding. Additionally, I incorporate Gamification in my teaching, using game elements such as rewards, challenges, and competition to motivate students and make the learning experience more enjoyable and interactive.
