Meet Mrs Chau, an outstanding tutor who really cares about your child

Mrs Chau is a Vietnamese national whom graduated from Hong Kong University with a Bsc in Biochemistry and Psychology. She was offered a full scholarship to HKU based on merit and was on the Deans Honors list. 

Mrs Chau is a ‘gifted’ individual and attended the prestigious ‘Le Hong Kong School for the gifted’ in Ho Chi Min city. She represented Vietnam at the Intel science fair in the US and took 4th place. She also created an NGO in her home country to help teachers connect with students to teach STEM subjects to students in need at secondary and high school level.  

She was awarded a research scholarship from the Laidlaw foundation during an exchange with Utrecht University in the Netherlands and is currently a peer mentor for the Modern Science course at HKU. 

Mrs Chau is now beginning her journey as a research assistant in the School of Biomedical sciences at the HKU faculty of medicine. Alongside her  research, she is working with mathemagic as a part time tutor and we are very glad to have her as part of our team. 

Mrs Chau can tutor students in Mathematics, Biology and Chemistry up to higher levels as well as University materials or IB/AP as well as A-levels. However she is a really kind hearted individual who deeply cares about her students and also really enjoys helping students out at primary or early secondary levels. She is comfortable with EYP, PYP, MYP as well as the Key Stage program and the US common core . 

Mrs Chau has a keen passion for learning and discovery as well as child psychology. She is patient and well organised, extremely inspiring and will set healthy boundaries with her students to ensure the lessons are as productive and enjoyable as possible.

She then left her hometown to study Science at HKU where she majored in Biochemistry and minored in Psychology. Chau was actively involved in research activities at HKU where she did a transdisciplinary research exchange program with students from Utrecht University in the Netherlands in her second year, won a Research and Leadership Scholarship from the Laidlaw Foundation, UK for her summer research in her third year, and concluded her study with a year-long project in the field of biomedical sciences in her final year. She was also a peer-mentor for the Fundamentals of Modern Science course, a compulsory fundamental course for all science students, and a student-mentor for a newly developed research program for undergraduate students. Chau has recently graduated and will start working as a Research Assistant at the School of Biomedical Sciences, HKU Faculty of Medicine. 

Chau is passionate about students’ learning and development and hence, would implement a learner-centered approach when helping students study science subjects. As she believes each student has his/her own pace and way of learning, Chau wants to be able to help her students throughout their learning journey by catering her teaching to different students and their learning styles.
