Testimonials

 

"I am impressed by how Teacher Mel and Minyee can engage my daughter to do work. So far she is ok, she seems to enjoy both sessions. We hope she can acquire all the skills and knowledge that you all impart on her. 
Thanks to you and Minyee’s commitment and dedication to teaching and ensuring she understands the importance of the subjects she learns and needs in the future world. We can feel that you are teachers putting child’s mind in yours, teach them the way they understand and see."

• Parent of C, P6 

​

“Thank you for the dedication, commitment and love you show in working with our children. We can see they enjoy your lessons and even talk about what they are learning from you. P has grown in confidence in working with maths and she sees in you not just her tutor but a friend she feels comfortable with. “

• Parents of P, Sec One Math tuition

 

“Teacher Mel is a very dedicated and "child-friendly" tutor. Both my kids find her teaching method very effective and easy to understand. She is not just a tutor but also a friend to the kids. This has indeed created a strong bonding between them.”

• Parent of JJ and SN, O level E and A Math

 

“I was scoring terribly in math in secondary 3, with an average of a failing grade. Your evident passion and excitement in solving tricky sums inspired me to enjoy the process of solving maths, and I saw my grades jump from fails to ‘A’s! Now that I’m in JC, I am a lot more confident than my peers in understanding lectures and tutorials with the help of your patient explanations. “

• Student from an IP school , A level H2 Math

 

“Teacher Melody is  a passionate and dedicated teacher who has guided my child, E with patience. She is extremely good with children and E is always happy and positive after having had sessions with her, something we didn’t often see previously. We are thankful for Teacher Melody’s approachability and proactiveness in ensuring our child is learning effectively. She even provides extra tips on how parents can support their children through their learning journey, in Math/ Science! Thank you Teacher Mel! “

• Parents of E, Primary four Math/ Science tuition

• Parent of R, Primary 6, Maths and Science tuition

 

“Melody was an invaluable tutor to my daughter, N who went from a pass to an A1 within a few months. This was only made possible because Melody made learning math so easy and so much fun. Melody was extremely patient, dedicated and always *encourages N. Thanks to her, N was able to take progress from N level math to A math and thereafter O Level math. Melody is very focused and conscientious. It was a blessing to have Melody tutored my daughter for 4 years.”
