Background

Zane Tan has been involved in teaching and mentoring students for more than 20 years, helping numerous students with their studies. Quite a number of his students have been with him from primary school to secondary school. Some of his better PSLE students (PSLE score of above 260, etc) have gone on to schools like Raffles Institution, Raffles Girls School, etc.  Even for the more “challenging” or less study-motivated students (whom he calls “late bloomers”), he has not given up on them. He continues to teach, motivate and mentor them. Many of such past students are now in JCs, Polys and even Universities. Some of them still continue to seek his advice today.    

Zane Tan is a Presidential Scholar, having graduated with Highest Honours (First Class Honours). He was ranked at the top of his Business faculty in the university,

achieving an almost perfect Grade Point Average (GPA) of 3.9 out of 4.0. He has been on the Dean’s List every semester and his graduation has also been featured in an article in the media. During his educational stint in the university, he has been recognised as a distinguished scholar and received various nationally and internationally known honours and scholastic recognition.

Over the years, he has been involved, with counselling and educating parents, young children and youth/teenagers on study techniques and the need to develop lifelong learning habits. He also counsels parents on career paths for their children.

He strongly believes that the development of a child’s character is just as important, if not more, as the need to achieve good academic grades.   

His previous role as a curriculum specialist has enabled him to teach primary school pupils and trained educationists, school teachers and ex-school teachers in a number of extra curriculum enrichment courses which he has developed himself, some of which are still used today. He himself has taught these programmes in some of the top schools and SAP schools in Singapore. He is also well trained in accelerated learning techniques such as mind mapping, speed reading and memory techniques.

His passion now is to help children in achieving excellence academically, learn more effectively and overcoming learning problems and difficulties. He believes that with proper guidance, every child is able to bring out the best in him/her, and this require, most of all, time and patience.

He regularly conducts individual counselling sessions with parents or individual sessions with the students. Occasionally upon requests, he conducts parents talk with small group of parents.
