Teaching from Butterworth
A busy mainland town with national and Chinese-medium secondary schools.
Penang is known for academically strong schools, historic mission schools, respected SMJK and Chinese independent schools on the island and mainland.
Families across northern Peninsular Malaysia look for experienced SPM Mathematics teachers, and good ones are not always nearby. Teaching online lets you reach those students without the commute.
Inside a lesson
Your students know the work in class but lose marks in the exam. You help them set out working clearly, choose the right formula from the 39 on the exam sheet and use the calculator well.
Each lesson is one hour with one student over live video, using a shared whiteboard. You work Paper 1 and Paper 2 questions together and show the student how each mark is earned.
You choose how many hours a week you teach, and on which days and times.
Requirements
- Real experience teaching SPM Mathematics (KSSM, Form 4 and Form 5)
- Able to work Paper 1 and Paper 2 questions and explain how each mark is earned
- Clear spoken and written English for teaching
