About Me

Hi, I’m Kai! I was born in sunny Singapore, where I completed high school and two years of mandatory military service before studying at the University of New South Wales as a medical student.

In my early schooling years, I was never deemed as ‘naturally gifted’ in academics. Despite my shortcomings, I overcame many struggles and hurdles to get to where I am today. My wish as a tutor is to be able to impart my gained experience and knowledge to students whose position I was once in.

For my national service, I was attached to an endurance-class warship and served as a fast craft specialist in the Singapore Navy. There, I further learnt the importance of being disciplined and hardworking in the pursuit of excellence. At the same time, I understand that a keen interest in the given subject is just as important. It was my passion towards biology and the sciences that drew me towards the medical profession, inspiring me to work hard and eventually achieve my dream of entering medical school.

My teaching style

If I were to sum up my previous journey as a student, I would refer to the saying “hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard”. Achieving this level of dedication, however, required significant motivation from my teachers, parents, etc. This is why I recognise the importance of employing patience and keen understanding as my teaching philosophy; doing so is key in unlocking a student’s potential to excel academically.

My Proudest Achievements

While not from a predominantly chinese-speaking household, I studied hard and managed to top my cohort in SL Chinese Language B, attaining 96% and an Academic Award (2020).

As part of my compulsory national service, I served as a fast craft specialist in the Singapore Navy for 2 years, where I was eventually awarded with the Best NSF of the Year and Best Navy NSF of the Year Awards (2022).
