EVELYN GAN

My name is Evelyn, but I go by Eve, and I reside in the serene city of Shah Alam. I have recently graduated from the University of Nottingham Malaysia with a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology (Hons) and am eager to begin helping individuals in caring for their mental wellbeing. I wish to set aside some time to support students struggling in the subject of Psychology, which I am very passionate about. With a unique mix of experience as a peer tutor during college and a teaching assistant at a tuition centre, I am able to tailor to the learning styles of students.I love learning and am always keen on taking up new skills. I have dabbled in the Spanish language, I have tried various dance styles, and am currently trying my hand at ASL. I lose myself reading crime and horror novels, my current reads are Talking with Psychopaths and Savages by Cristopher Berry-Dee and I'll Be Gone in the Dark by Michelle McNamara. I will be always prepared for lessons ahead in time. This entails understanding the lesson materials thoroughly and thinking about how the material can be most effectively demonstrated to you. Planning my lessons will ensure that key points and contents will be presented to you clearly. I will encourage active interactions during lessons to probe students critical thinking and participation in acquiring knowledge.I have worked as a teaching assistant at the KUMON centre where I had the opportunity of educating children of ages ranging from five to fourteen. At KUMON, I provided one-to-one teaching for children in the English subject. I had learned to tailor my teaching style according to children's learning potential and subsequently responded to children's learning difficulties. While adhering to the curriculum of KUMON, I also ensured a fun learning experience for the children I was assigned to by building positive relationships with them.
