Sean's First Testimonial and First Customer!

 

Received an encouraging comment (below) from Edwin on Sunday, right after Sean fixed his computer problem.
 

As an avid gamer, this intermittent internet disconnection coupled with slow PC speed had been disrupting Edwin's computer usage for some time. Previously, Edwin had sought help from his other friends but they could not solve this issue. He even contacted his service provider, Singtel, and they confirmed that the internet connection was fine. Edwin had almost given up hope!
 

Though they have been friends for years, Edwin was not aware that Sean could repair computers until I shared my blog with him. He immediately contacted Sean last Friday to enquire if Sean could help him with his PC issue which had been troubling him for months, and Sean readily agreed to go down to take a look on Sunday, 24 Feb.
 

Sean diagnosed that Edwin's PC had been infected with two different types of viruses and helped him restore his PC to its pristine state.   



Edwin can now play his games smoothly and use his computer with ease and was satisfied and happy when he thanked Sean. Feeling a sense of fulfillment when he brought a smile upon Edwin's face, Sean hopes that he can reach out to more people and solve their PC issues.

I wish that everything goes well for Edwin and am glad that Sean finds joy in doing what he enjoys!

I truly hope that all my current students and ex-students will be successful in life. May they be happy and healthy always. J

A. Math and E. Math Tuition

I got to know Jane during my NUS days. A kind-hearted and responsible lady, she never fails to put in her best in whatever she does. Currently, she is assuming a full time career in Human Resource and is looking to resume giving tuition after office hours in A Math and E Math for Secondary students.

Jane has 7 years of experience in teaching and her ex-students under her care, stayed on with her for years until they eventually graduate. Armed with a Bachelor of Arts Degree, at the National University of Singapore, majoring in Statistics and Economics, she is strong in her Maths and scored distinction in her Math C at JC level.

As her good friend for many years, I am sure that students under her tutelage will be in good hands for their E Math and/or A Math and I have no qualms that they will score well in their tests and exams.

Lower Primary Maths and Chinese Tuition

I remember vividly, the days where Clarence and I were ex-colleagues. Despite being in different departments, he will always lend a helping hand to anyone who approaches him for help.

For events that are not related to work, like the charity fun fair to help raise funds for under-privileged children, he will make time to help out. A dependable, friendly and soft-spoken guy, he is someone who will stand up for what is right.

Clarence is currently working at an organization that requires him to work closely with School Principals and Teachers and he had received compliments from them for his good work. He intends to give tuition to lower Primary School students on Math and Chinese during his free time after work or weekends to supplement his parents’ living expenses.

He is holds a University Degree but is new to giving tuition. Though he does not have prior experience, I am sure that he has the qualities of a good Teacher as he is a responsible and knowledgeable person.

Chinese Tuition

My dear Aunt, Mrs Loke, is a full time Chinese Language Tutor with 15 years of teaching experience. She is a very dedicated Chinese Tutor, who tutored my brother and I Chinese, from Primary 1 up to Secondary 4.

As my brother and I come from an English background, we hardly spoke a single word of Mandarin at home. I remember clearly that Mrs Loke would ensure that we memorize our Chinese idioms well. She would make sure that we understood the usage of the idioms and Chinese words well and demonstrate to her that we could apply them skillfully. 

Her high standards molded us to be a notch above the rest, which eventually enabled us to score straight ‘A’s in our PSLE and O’levels, and we are truly grateful to her for that.

Mrs Loke is available to conduct her lessons at the student’s place or at her own home somewhere near Toa Payoh.

Feel free to drop me an email at  faeriel.belle@gmail.com if you like to find out more.

Computer Maintenance Service

For this post, I am writing for a close member of my family, Sean, who has a passion for computers and electronics. However, Sean had taken it to another level by majoring in Computer Engineering at Nanyang Technological University of Singapore.

Currently, Sean is working in an IT industry and he is planning to extend his passion and interest by helping others repair and maintain their computers and laptops during his free time.

In the past, during his JC and Uni days, he had provided freelance PC repair/maintenance and gave tuition to students to earn extra income to pay for his school fees and daily expenses, in order to ease the burden of his family.

A helpful, friendly and focused guy, he never fails to be the first person to be approached by family, friends and relatives to repair their PCs, laptops and is frequently being consulted for such problems.

If you have any enquiries, please drop me an email at faeriel.belle@gmail.com and he will contact you shortly.

Learning Piano

For my very first post, I would like to introduce, ‘Dimples’, a gentle and kind lady whom I got to know through my friend, GG.

‘Dimples’ is a full time Piano Teacher with a music Degree and 20 years of teaching experience. She is skilful in playing the piano and patient with children. The best thing about learning from her, in my opinion, is that most of her students score distinctions for their exams!

I hope to help her find more students as some of her students have graduated or are about to graduate.

Being the curious person that I am, I tried googling on the benefits of playing piano online and have found that it increases learning power in children, memory and language skills.  It also aids the child in his or her aptitude in Math and Science. Learning music also helps in emotional health and self-esteem. You may find out more in the link here http://classicalmusic.about.com/b/2007/08/03/the-benefits-of-playing-piano.htm

Dimples’ piano lessons are conducted at her home, which is located near the MRT station and she is using a Grand piano. With her qualifications and experience, the rates she charges are very reasonable, and in my opinion, below the market rate.

Do drop me an email at faeriel.belle@gmail.com for more details.

Welcome to my little sanctuary. This is a place for me to share with everyone, things that are close to my heart.

The purpose of this blog is to help my family; friends and relatives make a comfortable living, part-time or full time, with their skills and expertise. With rising inflation costs here in Singapore, and worldwide, we try our best to help one another.

I am most grateful to my dearest friend, GG, as I would not have started this blog without her encouragement and support. Thank you for making this possible, my dear friend!

The profiles of the people listed on my blog are of my family and friends whom I personally know and most of them are people whom I am close with and know for a long time. They are good-natured, sincere, honest and down-to-earth people who are good at what they do.  People who have integrity and commitment, who would like to share and contribute their skills and knowledge in the areas that they are good at and the things they do best to society.

I seek your kind understanding as the names of some of my friends have been changed or shortened as it is their wish to keep a low profile on cyberspace. Prior permission and approval had been sought from each and every one for every profile that I write for, before I upload onto my blog.

Besides the above, I’m planning to write on animals and environmental issues, help a friend sell her collectible teddy bears to raise funds for charity etc. For services that are not listed on my blog, please feel free to drop me an email and I will try my best to help match as I may have other sources that are yet to be listed here. For example: room rental, clothing alteration services, freelance accounting, taxi booking, learning foreign languages, insurance etc. Or if you are from overseas and like to know more about Singapore, I can make some free time to show you around or provide you with information about our country.

Please feel free to drop me an email if you have any enquiry at faeriel.belle@gmail.com and I will address your questions as best as I can. My apologies to you if there should be any lapse or delay in response on my part, as I am currently juggling a full time job, giving part-time tuition and doing my best to maintain and keep this blog updated.

I welcome all, as I like making new friends.

With Love and Light,

Kathy
