A math and science enthusiast from an early age, Mr. Krishna Jeyaraman (affably known as Mr. K) graduated with a first-class Honours in Biomedical Science.
He pursued a career in scientific research at the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR) followed by Duke-NUS Medical School. His research interests include neurological cancers and Type II diabetes.
It was through teaching opportunities during this time that he discovered his inner calling. He began his tutelage in 2010. Word-of-mouth recommendations quickly paved way for Mr. K Math & Science, a home-based tuition centre in Sembawang.
He has since taught over 200 students at his centre. Watching them overcome academic hurdles and achieve their personal best is the most gratifying aspect of his work.
REDEFINING TUITION
At Mr. K Math and Science, the focus lies on the quality of tutelage. Each student is a serious undertaking Mr. K remains committed to, from enrolment till graduation. His key objectives are:
1. To provide customised academic support.
Each week, Mr. K draws up his roster and takes stock of each student's course outlines, assessment deadlines and performances. He then tailors his 1-1 and group lesson plans carefully, ensuring individual learning objectives are continuously met and improvements are sustained.
2. To mentor.
The mental and emotional well-being of a student is often overlooked in the pursuit of grades. Mindful of these intangibles, Mr. K extends his role well beyond the classroom, forming partnerships with parents to monitor his students' well-being throughout their course of learning.
TEACHING METHODS
Rather than regurgitate textbook concepts, Mr. K constantly draws parallels between textbook concepts and the real world. Such connections stimulate students' interest in a topic, which in turn sustains them during the learning process.
He also employs a unique set of instructional tools and strategies during lessons to overcome classroom monotony and optimise student engagement. On occasion, bubble tea seems to help them cope well with the rigours of weighted assessments and examinations. :D
PROPRIETARY RESOURCES
Students receive a comprehensive set of resources meticulously designed by Mr. K. These include notes for each subject, worksheets of varying difficulty and tests. Student feedback indicates that the materials provided have been highly effective in preparing students for their assessments.
Lost your worksheet? No problem! All lesson materials are uploaded to dedicated Dropbox folders at the end of each lesson. With 24/7 access, no excuses for not doing homework! Resources provided complement both physical and online lessons and are periodically reviewed to ensure that they are aligned with the national examination syllabi.
