Proofreading and freelance writing
I have been contracted to write cover letters, CVs and applications for both students and businesses. I also wrote a series of articles for Singapore's National Library Board archives.
Tutoring
Some feedback from my students:
"Your teaching style is the best! Lessons are so interesting, also because we discuss about things beyond the scope of the lesson. You helped me learn to speak and write English well using topics like Prison Break and Dan Brown novels. Also, you were there for me during my O-Levels when my tutor for English comprehension/essays was not. And I remember tuition lessons till late at night before my exams. Your teaching style is patient, and you give me good advice, and how to reduce panic. Whenever I had stories to develop, I would give you ideas, which you would patiently develop with me. . writing became exciting and fun for me. Even after you stopped teaching me, you would help explain difficult concepts for my Advanced Diploma in Design whenever I ran into you." Juliet, O-Levels
"Perpetua is a very intelligent teacher equipped with very good teaching skills. She simplifies things I don't understand, and makes the learning process easier and faster. Even for A Math, she taught me ways of remembering complicated trigonometry. She always finds time to teach me, especially before my tests. I was so happy when she came back for a holiday in March so I could have her teach me again, because she knows how to make me understand things. Lessons are fun and three hours pass by very quickly." Siena, O-Levels
