Testimonials Even though my daughter has always been more drawn to the sciences, Ms. Boey instilled in her a passion for reading and an interest in literary appreciation. She was also very helpful in identifying my daughter's strengths and areas for improvement as well as in giving us advice on how to motivate her to explore different academic disciplines to find topics of particular interest. We are really thankful to Ms. Boey for teaching my daughter how to learn, which is something she could not have learnt from anyone else. ~ Parent of G6 student at Chinese International School Not only has Mr. Coetzee taught me how to be a better IB student, but also how to be a more all-rounded learner. Every single class I have had with him was planned so carefully that not a minute was wasted. Having spent so much time with Mr. Coetzee, you will come to realize, as I have, that one can never learn enough. Mr. Coetzee constantly blows my mind with his knowledge, and even without the million degrees he has to prove his VERY high level of qualification, I can guarantee you that you will be in good hands with him. ~ G12 student at St. Paul’s Co-educational College Ms. Celene is like one of those inspirational teachers you see in films and hope will cross paths with your child one day. She is both passionate about teaching and inspirational to her students who are motivated to learn beyond the classroom. She recently coached my son for his school presentation. After the first session, I could already see a huge difference in his presentation style and technique. From just an hour's session, my son had been transformed from a nervous little boy with a monotonous voice into a lively and confident public speaker. Private coaching with Ms. Celene was a great experience for my son who now has a better appreciation for public speaking. Thank you Ms. Celene! ~ Parent of G3 student at Singapore International School We first met Miss Miriam at the summer Mystery Reader & Writer class, and I was instantly impressed by the variety of her teaching strategies. My son later received private coaching from Miss Miriam in order to better prepare for his secondary school entrance exam. Miss Miriam has always been resourceful, inspiring, and patient, and my son always came out of her classroom smiling and feeling empowered. He has smoothly got into his target school, and we are happily continuing our class with Miss Miriam to further strengthen his English skills. ~ Parent of G5 student entering Chinese International School in the fall 29
