Yes, we do. Trial classes are available all year-round. Trial classes are available under the following conditions. A trial class is free of charge if the student does not register for the class after attending the lesson. If a student wishes to register for classes after the trial class, the trial class is considered as the first charageable lesson.

Will there be lessons during the school/public holidays?

Our academic semesters for 20200 is as follows: ​

Semester 1: 2nd December 2019 - 30th May 2020
Semester 2: 29th June 2020 - 31st October 20200

During the June holidays, only classes for P6 students continue. We will also conduct additional crash course and booster classes during then.

There are no lessons on public holidays and replacement classes will be arranged on Sundays in the same week.

How is a typical lesson like?

A lesson usually starts with reviewing the homework given the past week. All students are expected to attempt the homework to ensure effective learning when the questions are gone through in class. Ms Suzanne will then cover new concepts and skills. Very often, students are able to understand and they will be given time to apply the concepts they have just learnt. Many of them will find it difficult at first, but this is normal. We will then go through the tutorial again and they will then spot the missing piece in their application. This lecture-tutorial-feedback loop weekly will help each student master the topics.
