I must admit, it is not easy being a tuition teacher. Especially if you are just starting out. I didnt know the level of education in Singapore has advance to such level that i was nearly defeated by a sec 4 maths question. hahah. i feel ashamed. A uni undergraduate, nearly being defeated by a sec 4 level maths question. When i was posted that question by my friend, i took about 5 mins to understand what was going on. Haha.. after i managed to solve the question, i felt this sense of achievement coming over me. I told myself, hey, i still can do JC maths. But it all came crashing down after my friend told me its sec 4 maths. What!! SEC 4?

I was talking to my friend today on our way home, she was telling me she is currently teaching tuition to this pri 2 kid and she say she is facing problems. what??? haha.. she say she cant answer the kid's question of why is 4 x 4 = 16. Thats just like asking why is 1+1=2. hahah

i guess no matter which level u are teaching, there are sure bound to be "problems". haha
