OUR TESTIMONIAL

Mum of Ben, 9 yr-old

After our son was diagnosed with dyslexia in Grade 1, we immediately began working with Wan Yen. At that time, his reading/writing skills were low, and his self-esteem was suffering. Wan Yen effectively addressed his learning needs through a multi-sensory systematic approach. We now have a third grader who in addition to reading/writing on grade level, has confidence and excitement about school and learning.

Mum of Sonia, 7 yr-old

Sonia was assessed as being mildly dyslexic. Because of the Covid-19 situation, we were recommended to Wan Yen who then taught Sonia via Zoom. Wan Yen identified my daughter’s challenges in reading and knew how to design lesson plans to help her overcome these challenges. The materials used in the weekly lessons are interactive and engaging, therefore helping my daughter learn successfully. We saw results within the first month and after 3 months, my daughter could read! Wan Yen is a very dedicated and effective teacher and we are so grateful to have her teaching Sonia.

Mum of Rob, 6 yr-old

Our son Rob (aged 5) has been attending classes with Ms Wanyen since May 2020 and within a short span of 4 months, we have seen vast improvement in his interest, confidence and reading ability. Ms Wanyen's teaching materials are well structured, engaging and age appropriate, with a good mix of theory reinforced through mini games. Ms Wanyen also has a great personality and built rapport with Rob very well by getting to know more about his interests so she could incorporate them into her lesson plans. She's patient, enthusiastic and a great motivator and coach for young readers - I can't recommend her highly enough!

Mum of KW, 17 yr-old

Thank you so much in coaching and guiding my son in English in the past 6 years. Greatly appreciate your dedication, patience and going the extra mile to customise the lessons to his learning needs and in helping him to strategise for his exam preparations!  He is so happy and grateful to exceed his own expectations in managing a B3 for his N level English !! 

Mum of Ethan, 12 yr-old

Ms Wan Yen is patient in helping my son understand in a lively way. She will change her teaching strategies accordingly so that he never finds her class boring. Her methods have enhanced his interest in self-learning the language.

Mum of Caleb, 12-yr old

Through a recommendation, I engaged Ms Lee, a specialist teacher, who helped Caleb the entire of his primary school years. Ms Lee is a patient, dedicated and effective teacher. Slowly, Caleb learned to read, could do compositions and comprehensions. Now Caleb is adept at expressing himself and has better pronunciation than even me at times. 

Mum of Sam, 14 yr-old

Wan Yen customises her teaching to make lessons more meaningful and easier to grasp. She understands the learning issues of Sam and teaches him strategies that have proven useful.

Mum of Chris, 16 yr-old

Through Wan Yen’s patience and guidance, we noticed Chris was improving significantly in her reading, spelling, comprehension and composition writing skills. She had found her confidence and was finally enjoying school. She no longer dreaded going for literacy therapy.

Mum of Marianne, 16 yr-old

Wan Yen’s rich experience, thoughtful scaffolded approach, versatile teaching, and deep patience has helped Marianne tremendously to overcome her attention difficulties, cognitive and social challenges in learning. Today, Marianne loves reading and writing her own stories.
