Our testimonials

What our students & parents say about us

Mrs Shum is a very dedicated teacher. She has given me detailed feedback to improve my writing and her lessons are very engaging. I really appreciate the personalised feedback which helps me identify areas I should work on more. She goes the extra mile to share interesting facts every lesson which has helped expand my general knowledge in so many ways. With Mrs Shum's tips and MS Worksheets explaining how to master various components, I'm able to answer questions with greater confidence. Lastly, Mrs Shum cares deeply about our emotional well-being, and she always reminds us that trying our best is more important than the results.

I would like to thank the Chinese Language teacher very much for her effort, concern and encouragement for my child! He is very happy to be in her class and has enjoyed the Chinese Language lessons very much. He has tried his very best in the PSLE examination last year 2022 and his Chinese has improved. The constant encouragement from his Chinese Language teacher makes a difference and goes a long way!  Thank you Mr Kuek and all the teachers very much who has taught him and shared during the online bootcamp and the webinars! We really appreciate the effort, time, love and understanding put into preparation of the examination booklets and materials and staying behind after the online lessons to answer the students' questions! Wishing all the teachers and staff a very Happy blessed year 2023 ahead!

Dear Mrs Shum, thank you so much for all the guidance and support you’ve given me since i joined ms. Since i joined at a pretty late stage, i didn’t expect myself to acquire so much valuable knowledge that allowed me to learn English from a whole new perspective, as well as to perceive life in many different aspects. Thank you for always being so generous in sharing with us your personal experiences that engaged us during class, and making English such a fun subject for us explore the wonders of it! Thank you for taking the extra mile to further support me in English Literature as well, it really has been very useful!! It has truly been an eye-opening experience learning from you and I will remember these lessons as part of the unforgettable memories of learning in this subject❤️🥰

Mrs Shum is a caring teacher who is concerned about her students and their well-being. She has helped me improve in my English and has always been very caring towards me. She stresses on our mental health and has encouraged us a lot. Her teaching is amazing and i love how she shares interesting facts related to the topic we were studying and she exposed us to the basics of general paper too. To add, Mrs Shum gives specific feedback on our work which allowed us to know what we can improve on. The MS comprehension worksheets were also of great help as they allow me to know how to answer certain questions in a straightforward manner. Mrs Shum marks quite strictly which also further prepared me well for the O-levels where the marking is usually more lenient. As a result, I learnt how to do better and could gauge where i stand. Mrs Shum also made me realise that i was better in personal recount essays which allowed me to do well in the O-levels. Overall, MS worksheets were of great help and useful with specific tips and strategies. Thank you so much.

Hi Ms Mavis, I would like to thank you for the teaching. Your lessons are engaging and I can always focus on it. I still remember vividly your patience when answering all my questions. Even though I have a lot of questions, you still answer them using your best effort which I appreciate very much. You are a great teacher 👍 Thank you very much and wish you a great year ahead !

Dear Mr Alvin, Just want to text you to say "Thank you for all you have done for all the kids! Elvyn scored AL6 for his 2022 PSLE!“ A special mention to Teacher Meili, Teacher Audrey, Teacher Ryan and 丁老师。Not only were they never annoyed by his endless questions and constant requests for ways to improve himself, they guided him and encouraged him to do more and better. We are so blessed to have met all of you! I had introduced friends to send their kids to MS and will surely help to promote MS in the future too!

I am writing this email to compliment one of your teachers at your centre, who had taught my son, Gan Eu Jin, for the past one and a half years. In view of a change of Eu Jin's CCA training schedule as of 1 Jul 2017, I had no choice but to pull him out of Teacher Rachel's Sat 2pm Pri 5 class as of last week and transferred him to another session at the East Campus. As such, I would like to covey my thanks to Teacher Rachel for her patience, guidance and care given to Eu Jin during her weekly session with him for the last many months. Teacher Rachel has always been so reassuring and encouraging towards my son. In addition, I am very sure her teaching techniques, emotional support, dedication and commitment had, in no small way, contributed to my son's enthusiasm in attending classes at Mind Stretcher as well as his good results so far in writing tests. Pls convey my thanks to Teacher Rachel and I will definitely recommend Mind Stretcher for their Writer Toolbox classes and especially with awesome teachers like Teacher Rachel helming them! Keep up the good work MS!

Parent of Gan Eu Jin
Mr Bernard Sew is a dedicated and effective teacher. I certainly hope he would consider continuing to teach the current P4 Tuesday online class when the students move on to P5 next year.

Parent of Arielle Teo Le Yann
Mr Ee is encouraging and kind towards us. He always finds ways to engage us into learning with him too. One thing he does that is unique is that he always prepares a lot of tools for the lesson before the lesson even starts. When we have a question, he will either show the answer in his google drive or search it up on google. When we have questions about exam formats, he will research about it and tell us the answer the week after. Mr Ee is very patient and thoughtful to us too. When we are given a ton of work, instead of giving it all in one go, he would split it up and ask us to hand up separately. I enjoy his classes as he also shows us youtube videos that is related to the lesson, which is fun and engaging. Altogether, I think that Mr Ee is a good teacher and I enjoy all his classes.

Thank you for your hard work and passion to make P5 Science classes more lively & interesting despite the fact it is a dry subjeect. If only there was a survey to vote for the best HBL teacher I am sure you would certainly be among the top. Once again, thank you.

Parent of Rachel Chua
I am really happy to be Teacher Shannel's student as she had helped me to improve my Maths. I was struggling in Maths before I became her student. Teacher Shannel always explains the questions in a way that makes them easy to understand. I got 21 out of 25 for my test and all these became possible after attending her lessons! I really hope that she can remain as my teacher year after year!

I Would like to pen this thank you message to Lesley Owyong who taught my child, Jerome, English for the last 2 years. Teacher Lesley is a very caring nurturing and encouraging Teacher and Jerome has made a lot of progress in his English ever since he joined her class last year. As a parent, I am very touched by the time and effort she puts in to mark the work of my child for the class in particular the composition work as sne improves the sentences and puts in encouraging words for Jerome and the areas to improve on. Jerome feels motivated and looks forward to attending her lessons every week as the lessons are always fun and engaging. Please do vour best to keep wonderful teachers like her in MS and recognize her hard work

Hi Teacher Colman, I just want to thank you for teaching Shao Heng for Primary 5 English! You have made the lessons so interesting and he has picked up his confidence in English with your help. It was a challenging 2 years with the Covid 19 situation and I'm glad all of us pulled through the PSLE paper. Thank you once again!

Parent of Ong Shao Heng
Thank you Teacher Wai Chu for helping me to improve my writing skills! During first week of PSLE A* Writers tuition, my composition grades were very low. Gradually, after your constant helpful nagging and encouraging, my grade started increasing. From 17/40 to 37/40, my grades became higher and higher. I became the top in class at school and then my level! Thank you for encouraging me!

I have a few Mind Stretcher teachers that helped me to be where I am today. One of them is Mr Muizz, he taught me Writer's Toolbox during P5. He also told a lot of jokes and it was quite funny. My classmates and I really enjoyed his lessons.

Tristan Tang
Just wanted to say thank you so much! I would never have been where I am today in SOTA as a Literary Arts student if it wasn’t for the Primary 5 Writers Toolbox classes and Teacher Asoda who taught me how to get my creative juices flowing!

I like that Mind Stretcher uses both informative videos as well as hands-on experiments to help students learn. Being able to see the reactions of experiments makes lessons more fun. Mind Stretcher also prepares students in advance after the end-of-year examinations are over, with topics that will be taught in the coming year to familiarise students with the syllabus.

Mind Stretcher has complemented my experience in Primary School and further enhanced my passion in the languages and the sciences to unimaginable extents, thanks to the ardent educators in Mind Stretcher. My P6 Mind Stretcher teachers, namely, Mrs Rae (Eng), Mr Kelvin Lim (Sci), Ms Joanna Tan (Maths) and Mdm Soo Lian (H. Chi); were all educators with a difference - they shaped me academically and socially.
