Stanley Yeo

Hi all! I am Stanley, and I have been a full-time tutor since 2014. I scored distinctions for all my subjects from primary to junior college level, and I believe I am in an excellent position to be an all rounded tutor. I wish to contribute by enhancing and facilitating the learning process of students in the primary and secondary school level now. It is my hope that my enthusiasm and passion towards life and learning, by having specific goals, can rub off my students and propel them to greater heights in their academic careers and beyond. I am able to start immediately, and I am able to commit for at least 1 academic year and beyond. It is my wish that I follow my students through to their final O or A level exams. I adopt different teaching methods, as I do not believe in a 'one size fits all' approach. I also get parents to cooperate with me in the teaching of their children. For example, I will request parents to supervise and ensure that their children do the homework assigned to them. I will also provide updates to parents on the learning progress of the child, and prescribe additional materials if needed. Besides teaching the core syllabus, I also get students to think about their goals and motivational anchors in life, so they become more disciplined and focused during my lessons. I also share tips and strategies for exam preparation, and aim to enhance their answering techniques through practice. In my free time, I do my own investments and reading. I am a firm believer in the saying 'life is an adventure'. As such, I have been to numerous countries, and have participated in activities such as skydiving, scuba diving, trekking, mountain climbing and flying. Owing to my passion for aviation and childhood dream, I spent 3 months in Perth, Australia, to obtain my pilot's license. I also spent 2 months exploring the South Pole and South America Continents! Besides being academically inclined, I have also excelled in non-academic aspects. I have received 2 prestigious national awards from our former President Mr S.R. Nathan. I was also commissioned as a Navy Officer by him in 2005. In, 2017, I was promoted to the rank of CPT(NS). I believe I will not only be able to coach and guide my students in their studies, I am also able to inspire and motivate them in other aspects of their lives.
