Teaching Experience and Achievements
Full-time tutor since 2016:
My teaching canvas includes diverse landscapes like Adam Khoo Learning Centre, The Annexe Project, and MaxiMind Eduhub
Over the course of my 9 years of teaching experience, I have taught and helped students from both O-Level, A-Level and IP streams (including schools like RI, RGS, and HCI).
I specialise in turning strugglers (F9 students) into B3/B4 achievers in O-Levels and propelling talent to outstanding 92% scores in S4 year-end exams at RGS. For my 2022 A-level cohort, we soared from E/D to an impressive 80% A/B achievement.
About me
My teaching style? Picture breaking down complex concepts into bite-sized, relatable pieces laced with humour. It’s about a fun yet effective learning journey that ensures students absorb and apply knowledge with ease.

H2 Physics: JC1 Promos to A-Level, E to A
My biggest challenge was understanding many of the concepts in A-Level H2 Physics. But from Teacher Claire’s lessons, I began to understand that Physics is not a difficult subject so long as you have the right guidance that can help you better understand the subject. My Physics grades improved from D/E to A/B and I felt like her lessons really tailored to my own needs and my pace of learning. Jokes were included so the lesson was also very enjoyable.

Thank you so much for tutoring me for the past 2 years, I genuinely enjoyed Physics much more than before 🤩! Ms Claire's lessons were always very productive and straightforward. She is very skillful in her teaching and is familiar with the current syllabus, plus she's also very resourceful and strives for the best in her students. I would definitely recommend students to be under her tutelage 😀

H2 Physics: E to B
My biggest challenge before starting physics tuitions was that I was unable to grasp the key concepts of the topic and made it extremely difficult for me to apply what i have learnt in the topic. My biggest takeaway after tuition was that I was able to understand the topics easier and in greater depth. Being able to understand H2 Physics concepts is a huge breakthrough for me as I am able to apply what I learn in both my exams and the ever-changing world.
Teacher Claire is a really friendly and knowledgeable teacher who patiently helps me with my queries and doubts. I would recommend Ms Claire’s physics lessons to anyone who is struggling with the concepts or unable to apply the concepts.
And to Ms Claire:
Hope you can continue helping students and bringing the best out of them!

H2 Physics: D to A
Before starting tuition with Teacher Claire, I had trouble applying physics concepts and scored C/Ds for exams.
However, thanks to Teacher Claire's tuition sessions, I managed to grasp and apply concepts that used to confuse me and got A/Bs and eventually A in A levels. During my tuition sessions with Teacher Claire, I was able to learn quickly and effectively as she explained each question to me in detail and even shared other common questions that might come out in future exams. This has allowed me to feel more confident and prepared for exams and also improve my grade.
I highly recommend physics tuition to those who are enthusiastic in improving in this subject as you still have to put in hard work on top of tuition in order to achieve the grade you want.
Lastly, thank you Teacher Claire for being very patient and explaining concepts to me both thoroughly and efficiently as this has allowed me to tackle more difficult questions with more confidence and ease.

Teacher Claire is very friendly and funny. She teaches in a very nurturing way and never fails to make me laugh. She is very patient in teaching and explaining, always making sure we understand the topic fully before moving on.
