Mr. Ong is our tuition centre's highly regarded chemistry tutor.
Mr. Ong graduated from NUS in Mechanical Engineering with 2nd Class Honours. He was an ex-teacher who gave supplementary classes to studnets on Chemistry He has been teaching for more than 15 years and has helped many students acheive their desired grades. He has also taught in SINDA in Physics, Chemistry and Math and helped many Junior College students to acheive good results.
With more than 15 years of teaching experience in Chemistry, Mr. Ong's unique style of teaching caters to students with different learning abilities.
Both an analytical and patient tutor, Mr. Ong is able to identify where the student's academic weakness are and commits his time in helping them improve.
Mr. Ong goes beyond the text book by relating his teachings to real life examples and situations because he believes that this will stimulate interest in his students and help them understand their work with greater ease. As such, this indirectly prepares them for the challenges that they would face in the working world.
Being a good motivator, Mr. Ong has helped many students who were barely passing their subjects to become straight-As students.
