Why tutoring with me?
There are many tutors in the world, and frankly most of them are more affordable. Why would you want to make a higher investment to work with me? Here's why:
1) I'm not just tutor, I'm a coach. My goal in every engagement is to make a difference for my students far beyond the immediate class that we are working on. One of the ways I do this is to teach my students how to learn more effectively.
From a student:
"Before I met Wai Kit, I had a C in my Physics class even though I spent hours everyday reading my physics textbook and watching videos on YouTube. I just didn't understand Physics. We started with sessions twice a week so I could catch up with the rest of the class ... then once a week ... then we didn't meet at all during the last month of my semester. I ended with a B+ in my Physics class!!! Wai Kit helped me understand my learning style and how I would learn the best. After changing my studying methods, I started learning things by myself, and eventually I didn't need Wai Kit's help. I'm excited to see how I can apply this to my other classes in the future!"

2) I recently graduated and am very familiar with what it was like to be a student. Having been down the path of high school and college, I know what works and what doesn't. I know the best way a student should prioritize their time to produce the results they want to produce (a grade, a scholarship, a certain college, a job, etc).
From a parent:
"Wai Kit is an amazing tutor. He is helping [my daughter] with content and also her approach to the subject. They have also had great talks about priorities. I can see that she is a lot more focused now. I think it was a good call for someone closer to her age and in his position to ask her the important questions regarding her priorities and dedication. In this sense I feel Wai Kit is the full package to help [my daughter]."

3) My students produce results - improved understanding, increased confidence, and higher test scores.
From a parent:
"THANK YOU WAI KIT! Your work with [my son] really helped him, and not just in math but also his mindset as well. His score went up from 58% to 86% on his latest exam and he is a lot more confident in school now. Thank you so very much for working with him! [My son] really liked you as a tutor and also a person"

4) I treat my students as if they are my own family, I support them wherever and whenever they need it.
From a parent:
"Wai Kit, thank you very much for your kindness and your support of [my son]. I hope you know that you have become much more than a tutor - you’ve become a mentor and an incredible source of support and sharing. He’s shared about how much he enjoys meeting with you over physics and life . . . very affirming when the academics and decisions around them are so unpredictable and out of his control. Thanks again for your heart for teaching and caring! I can’t fully express how grateful I am for you"
