What Students are Saying about Logic Curve:
“I have had the pleasure of learning Chinese under the guidance of my teacher, Ms Daphne, and I can confidently say that she is one of the most caring and patient educators I have ever met. Her dedication to her students’ success is truly commendable. She creates a supportive learning environment from day one and excels at boosting students’ confidence, especially in chinese oral, by providing plenty of speaking practice and constructive feedback. Her dedication and personal interest in students’ progress make learning enjoyable and effective. Thanks to her guidance, my Chinese speaking skills have significantly improved” Andre Yeo Secondary 4 Student Yu Hua Secondary School
“Ms Daphne is a patient and serious teacher. My Chinese is not the best, but Ms Daphne will always guide me and use engaging methods to teach me. Ms Daphne also prepares notes that I found very useful when revising for my oral and composition writing. I managed to go from a E8 to a B3 in my O levels. As for mathematics, Ms Daphne is able to teach in a clear and concise manner, she is patient and even if I don’t understand the first time, she will make the effort to explain the parts I don’t understand. She has also prepared many past year papers for me to practise with which allowed me to be more prepared for the questions presented to me during O levels. Outside of tuition, Ms Daphne also takes her time to answer any questions I have on WhatsApp. She truly makes Mathematics and Chinese more engaging and fun for me .” Carrie Tan Pharmaceutical Science Nanyang Polytechnic Year 1

“I first sent my son for the holiday camp last year in december when he was 4 years and 3 months. I recently sent him again in june, now he’s 4 years and 9 months. Previously he could barely complete the worksheets. But now I am happy to see that his worksheets are filled everyday! Also he has so much fun with the activities and enjoys lunch there. Very happy with the holiday camps.” – Ni Zhen Teo via Google
“Teacher Wendy caters so well to my girls’ learning needs. Our then 5-year-old daughter did not have much of a grasp of Mandarin and lacked confidence. She had joined another Chinese enrichment which was too advanced for her and she got even more discouraged. Wendy has been doing such a great job patiently helping her with the basics. My P1 girl is now more receptive to learning Mandarin where once she was really resistant. No regrets sending her to Haha.” – Hui Ran Leong via Google

Testimonial by Student – Reese Liem Wan Xuan
“I can safely say that, Miss SY Wang is the most integral ingredient for all the successes I had with Chinese.
Before joining Miss Wang’s online Chinese lessons, I was mindlessly drilling and following all sorts of conventional ways of studying that did not work out very well. After joining Miss Wang’s lessons, she truly opened my horizons of how Chinese should be studied. I knew what to study, the right techniques I should adopt, the way of thinking I should approach questions and thus, greatly pulled up my Chinese grades. Miss Wang is a very dedicated teacher who has come up with original and practical ways of learning and applying the Chinese language. I am very grateful for her patience and constant guidance on my mistakes, whether it be grammar or pronunciation! Could not have gotten my Distinction for Oral and the Overall A1 Grade for my GCE O Level Chinese Examination without the right lessons and right materials so THANK YOU Ms Wang!!! 🙂 🙂”

“I wish to acknowledge the unwavering dedication and guidance from the teachers at Wang Laoshi, as it played a pivotal role in my daughter achieving distinction for her PSLE higher Chinese. Thank you for your professionalism and expertise.” – Karen Ng via Google
“For a long time, PSLE AL1 was out of reach. After joining Mr. Wang, we worked hard step by step. Coupled with the teacher’s warm personality, my child became interested in studying Chinese hard. As a result, I got AL1 in the pre-test essay and AL2 in total. After the teacher’s continued encouragement and hard work, coupled with Teacher Wang’s methods, my child achieved a surprising result, AL1! The child herself still couldn’t believe that her progress could be so great. All the hard work is worth it because of the feeling that the dream comes true. When entering the middle school curriculum, we will continue to educate our children under Teacher Wang. The impressive materials and teacher’s efforts together with their dedication enable the kid to achieve this good results.” – Warren Ng via Google

What Parents are Saying about Hua Cheng Education Centre:
“Hua Cheng (Thomson) was recommended to me by a friend. I didnt think much and just signed my 2 kids up treating it just like any tuition centre. But I was so glad that I took on my friend’s recommendation.
1. Very dedicated teacher. When my kids need improvement, the teachers will initiate feedback session. They will give detailed feedback with constructive suggestions on what the child can do to improve. The teachers are also very encouraging, and always try to make lessons fun.
1.1. Teacher will give extra lessons (at no additional cost!!!!!!!) My kids have been to different tuition centres but lessons are always chargeable. BUT, not at Hua Cheng! When my no 2 performed not so well, Zhang Ke Xin laoshi “prescribed” him a series of lessons. I think 4 lessons, by asking him to turn up 30 mins before his actual class start. I am sure this eats into her break time, but she did so for the good of my no 2.
1.2. My no 1 took O levels pu hua last year. Before the exam, I think it was oral, after her normal class, at night, Li laoshi gave them extra lessons on zoom, to help them prepare for exams. Again, no extra charge. I am sure this eats into her personal rest time, but she did so for the good of my no 1 (and the other kids in the class).
2. Very supportive management who focuses truely on the child’s interest. Without management support, the teachers will not be able to take such great care of the students.
3. Very efficient and caring customer support. The customer support works very closely with the teachers, supporting them with calling parents when the kids are late, when zoom session requested (kid or teacher is sick esp during COVID), making sure during hbl the kids have the handouts with them, and many other logistics.
4. Recently my no 1 and no 2 are sitting for O levels and PSLE respectively. HuaCheng gave extra lessons, some are chargeable, which is fair, and they also had some extra lessons that are!
I have not come across a tuition centre that is so centric focusing on really educating the kids. I am very grateful to Hua Cheng management, the teachers, especially Zhang Ke Xin laoshi and Li laoshi for taking care of my kids so well, and last but not least, the customer service team. This is probably the most worth it tuition that I 心甘情愿pay.
Wishing the management, teachers and customer care team a belated teachers’ day. All of you are true educators at heart.” – Jolene Chiam via Google
