My work review 2025

By cryotosensei | diaperfinancingfund | 28 May 2025

Identified a key challenge faced by every student and implemented an intervention to help them overcome it. Documented this challenge and intervention on the Staff-Pupil Interaction (SPI) portal to provide other teachers with a better understanding of students in my class.
Informed the Form Teachers about my intervention plans for their students to keep them updated on their English learning progress and enable them to provide additional support, if necessary.
Personalized coaching continues, with me helping students to stretch their competencies (e.g., participating in an essay-writing competition) or improve upon their weaknesses (e.g., speaking aloud in front of others).
Utilised authentic opportunities to develop students’ speaking skills. Prepared three students to create a video describing their positive experiences with Simpler. Encouraged five students to share a book review in front of the whole school.
Process: Created many opportunities for students to hone their public speaking skills, including book reviews + Chill & Read sessions, ExcelFest video presentation, & Service Learning presentation to Boon Keng MRT staff. Impact: They gradually adopted the traits of effective public speaking.
Process: Emceed Awards Day and mentored 2 students as co-hosts. Impact: Colleagues appreciated how I brought a warm touch with anecdotes that celebrated staff achievements.
Kept parents informed about their children's small successes in school to foster closer parent-teacher bonds. Similarly, reached out to external stakeholders, such as DAS teachers, so that students could receive targeted support.
Process: Wrote books depicting their significant experiences, such as GRIT camp, and displayed them around the classroom to foster a sense of pride and achievement.

Impact: Students felt seen and heard. They also felt empowered to contribute to the class by posting them on the walls.
Introduced useful tools like BookCreator and SmartCompose to streamline work processes and inject a sense of fun.
