Just want to put this out there, when I was 7 and struggling to read, my mom tried to sign me up here since, as the name might imply, this... Read more me up here since, as the name might imply, this place is supposed to help kids learn to read. Apparently I was so bad at reading that they deemed me too much of a hassle to teach, and rejected me while claiming that I was dyslexic to justify their rejection. I'm now 22 and studying in NUS. I can't say for sure, but I'm inclined to believe that I was not, in fact, dyslexic. Thank you, very cool.

i was maybe 2-3 years old when i started going here bc i couldn’t even spell the word ‘cat’. i strongly believe that i can read actually helped me a... Read more strongly believe that i can read actually helped me a lot in my english over the years, and if im not wrong, i stopped going when i was 9 years old and started private one-on-one tutoring instead. however, there were a lot of good things about this place. TEACHERS: the teachers from my experience were good at teaching and made reading and spelling different words an easy process even when you’re a toddler. i remember that during one of my first lessons here, the teacher had taught us to sing a song that helped us learn different words which was overall a fun and enjoyable experience. i remember i had to go to a new class because i think my teacher had quit or something like that, and i cried because i didn’t know if i had to write my full name or just my first name on the paper. embarrassing!! but the teacher took the time to comfort me and explained that it didn’t matter, so i quickly stopped crying afterward. CLASSROOMS: the classrooms were clean from what i remember, which easily made it an excellent study environment. i could focus well, and it was most of the time always quiet, only sometimes the students started talking really loudly, but the teacher solved that issue quickly so that the rest of the class could go back to learning. LESSONS: honestly i do NOT remember how long the lessons were. only that each time i went there i learnt quite a lot. we had been given a book to read, “charlotte’s web”, and we read it in class and discussed it together. we brought up different points and talked about new words that we had read. certain words that seemed difficult were taught patiently by the teacher, which made the overall experience productive and calm. overall, this is actually an incredible tuition center. i’m not exactly sure how to describe how much it helped my english, but to put it into words, i went from a kid that had no clue how to spell cat to a kid that teachers in my primary school complimented and praised for being able to be ahead of my peers in terms of spelling and english in general. even though i’m sure that i can read wasn’t the only thing that helped me continuously improve and excel in english, im positive that it did significantly help me.
