Testimonials from O Level English Students
Miss Chan has been my English Tutor ever since Sec 1, and she has helped me improve from a F9 in my mid-years to a B3 in my prelims. Miss Chan is always so patient with me. Knowing that I am weak in English, she always makes it a point to teach me content ahead of the school syllabus so I have more time to understand the content. Thank you Miss Chan!
Micole Chua
O Level Student, Greendale Secondary School
I have been doing poorly in English since Primary school, given that I speak Mandarin at home. In Sec 3, I even failed my English Mid-year exams, which was why my parents found a English Tutor for me via MindFlex. Mrs Tan, my English Tutor, has been nothing but patient and helpful. She is so dedicated, and has even helped me improve from a D7 to an A2 in my O Levels!
Regina Lew
O Level Student, Edgefield Secondary School
I first commenced my English Tuition sessions with Irene in Sec 3, and she has been so helpful for me. I have learnt a lot from her lessons, which are always really engaging and effective. Eileen will also always make sure to check in on me to ensure that I was not feeling too stressed, especially during exam season. I have never had such a kind and caring tutor before Irene!
Tan Jia Hui
O Level Student, Peirce Secondary School
My English Tutor, Mr Lim, has been very patient and helpful. He never fails to come to lessons prepared, and will always have extra English resources to offer me, whether it is model answers for Paper 2 Comprehension, or even model essays! Mr Lim also makes sure that I am prepared for every examination in school through giving me mock tests. With his help, I managed to get an A2 in my English O Levels!
