Testimonial
Ms Sarah is very patient and cares a lot for her students. Under her tutelage, I've not only grown as a student but as a person. She is a thorough teacher who’s sociable and has a good sense of humour so she's very easy to connect with. She's taught me Maths since primary school and throughout secondary school, and I am very grateful for her guidance. She tackles her students' problems with ease and a firm yet warm hand. From my experience, she not only helped me with Mathematics, but also taught me to prioritise and manage my time better for an overall higher productivity. Ms Sarah's encouragement gave me the strength to push through O Levels, and go from a B4 in A Math Prelims to an A1 in O Levels. Her explanations are easy to understand and she does not hesitate to find different ways to explain Maths as well. She is unafraid of learning alongside her students. She has guided me through secondary skills and not only taught me Math but essential skills and values like planning ahead. She is extremely dedicated to her students' welfare and is has given me so much advice and motivation on so many occasions. She has made my secondary education a more purposeful and meaningful one. Ms Sarah is not only an educator; she is a teacher with passion and skill to guide her students to reach greater heights not only in terms of academic performance but from a moral standpoint as well.
