Primary Programmes
By systematically working to improve Rachel’s overall strength, Teacher Dee helped drill Rachel to better structure her plots, and she has since gained confidence to produce good work more consistently. In her recent SA1, she even topped her cohort in composition writing!
Teacher Lena’s efforts close mentorship on Ashley and Harry started to bear fruits in the recent SA1 exams recently, with them scoring 17.5 and 16.5 respectively vs class averages of 13~14 out of 20.
I believe the teaching methodology, small-class size, subject-strong teachers are the reasons why my child scored an A* at PSLE.
It pleasantly surprised all of us! And a special thank you to the teacher who has inspired, motivated and encouraged my son to love writing! Thank you!
Aarav has benefited tremendously from the classes. His compositions have been very descriptive with the usage of enormous vocabulary and non repetitive words making the compositions very enjoyable to read! Doing school compositions have been less stressful. We were very pleased to read Teacher Farshad’s feedback highlighting what Aarav needs to improve and at the same time complimenting him on what he is good at. This has boosted his morale.
Write Edge has done well in setting up a structured curriculum which helps students to build up their confidence in their writing and score well in the exams. Feedback by the teacher also helps to monitor their progress in class.
I would like to say that I’m impressed by the high standard set by Write Edge with regards to the recent Mock Test. Initially, I thought it was just a normal writing test. However, after seeing how serious my 3 children were in preparing for it and the kind of constructive feedback and detailed marking in Joy’s script, I’m convinced that I’ve put the 3 of them in the right place. My twins have grown more confident after attending Teacher Farshad’s lesson. Jonathan’s EL teacher from school writes that she looks forward to his writing. Joash was also very encouraged by Teacher Farshad’s positive feedback and aims to do well in the Mock Test. I’m really pleased to see that great change in the attitude towards writing as the 3 of them really dread writing last time. Great job to all the Teachers at Write Edge!
We are pleasantly surprised and happy to see an A Star in his PSLE English. Having joined Write Edge since primary 3 and with the encouragement from the approachable teachers and Nicolette, he has blossomed over the years. His writing never fails to amaze me! Thanks once again Write Edge! You have made our dreams come true!
Thank you for all your help to improve Lokesh’s compo marks drastically and rapidly. At first Lokesh’s compo would be very mundane to read but now it is very interesting. His English teacher had been very happy with his improvement. In class his teacher would usually give him 22-26 upon 40. But in the last compo before his PSLE he got 32. Usually he gets a B (rarely A grade) for his English but in PSLE he has gotten an A* for it and an aggregate score of 256.
Ziqin has picked up the habit of reading more regularly and took time to write more often. She even typed her journal on the plane to Hong Kong. Such improvements are significant. With 6 months to go, she should be able to enhance her abilities in her weaker areas. Thanks for the detailed report, appreciate your time and effort to relay to us.
I would like to compliment Teacher Zhenhao for teaching Marvel in his P3 Writing. For the first time, his school published a compilation of students’ writing by the English and Mother Tongue Department and Marvel’s writing was published in the book. He’s so happy and proud of it. Thank you Teacher Zhenhao and Write Edge.
Isaac enjoys attending the weekly lessons very much, always looking forward to the fun and interactive classes. I would also like to thank Teacher Farshad for clearing any of my son’s doubts concerning the practice papers he has done so patiently. Overall, I think Write Edge has provided my son with great help and I would definitely recommend it to friends and family.
I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to Write Edge for their excellent effort and well planned curriculum to help Hayden to become an independent writer! He has progressed greatly from a boy with a few words (7/15 – 46% before attending Write Edge) to a confident writer (15.5/20 – 77.5% in the last exam).
In school, his composition was even chosen to be read in class! Special thanks to Eileen for giving him a chance to be learn in Write Edge and all the kind advices and encouragement provided. And a BIG THANK YOU to all the dedicated teachers who have taught him!
Desiree started with Write Edge since P4 and she enjoys going there every week. She learns the various writing skills and has developed into a confident writer. She has also shown much improvement in her grades. Credit to the sound curriculum and the dedicated teachers who has made lessons interesting for her. Thank you very much.
Aden has blossomed further with Teacher Farshad in his third year with Write Edge. Despite being soft-spoken , Teacher Farshad never fails to bring life to his class and Aden is constantly impressed with his wide knowledge and quick thinking. Teacher Farshad also gives timely encouragement that always manages to motivate Aden.
Thank you Teacher Farshad and the Write Edge team! Will continue to give support to this wonderful team!
Hong Jek has shown great improvement for preliminary PSLE creative writing.
He has improved from range of 27 – 28/40 to 34.5/40 in his recent preliminary PSLE creative writing.
I would like to give Ms Hanisa a big thanks as she is really passionate and give her whole heart to teach the kids . She even created a group chat for this class.
Thank you Write Edge and best wishes!
It’s been almost 6 months since my 2 children have been with Write Edge. I am grateful to Teacher Eileen and Teacher Candice for being patient and always encouraging to my girl and boy who were in the P1 & P3 class for 2017. My girl has benefited the most since she started as she is now a very confident writer and she enjoys her lessons very much.
We are looking forward to another fruitful 2018 for their writing journey.
Thank you again Write Edge!
Benedict started atWrite Edge a year ago when he was in P2. Since then, he has gotten a better grasp of the English Language and is able to express himself more articulately. We hope that he will continue to improve on his essay writing and enjoy expanding his knowledge with the help of Write Edge and it’s dedicated teachers.
Dear Write Edge, I would like to express my sincere gratitude for your excellent coaching effort to transform Daniella into an independent, confident, and passionate writer! Your teaching approach and professionalism not only helped Daniella to improve her essay grades, more importantly pique her passion towards writing. All these were evident from her essay being chosen to be the model composition in class, always enthusiastically attending Write Edge lessons without absence and I have also seen high praises on Daniella’s work from her school teacher. I highly recommend Write Edge to all parents who want to help their kids excel in essay writing.
Write Edge, KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!
I would like to thank Write Edge. All my 3 kids go to them. My son, tends to have short attention span and the Teachers have been extremely patient. He has improved so much that he enjoys keeping a diary. My two girls have benefitted academically but most important, they look up to the Teachers there as good examples of dedication, perseverance and patience.
A big thank you to Teacher Elysia for her hard work and dedication. Under her guidance and encouragement, Rachael has improved tremendously and is able to write confidently. From barely passing her composition previously to a scoring an A now.
Also my appreciation to Teacher Eileen for being a wonderful and patient teacher toward my younger girl who was with her since K2. We are really impressed that she is able to complete her composition independently without our help.
Zane enjoys the interesting class and looks forward to her class every week! Many new words and phrases are being taught during class each week. Teacher Martin is also a responsible and diligent teacher who goes through the composition thoroughly. Never regretted joining!
Wafeeq enjoys his lessons at Write Edge. He is a very keen student and I’m happy that Teacher Aileen is his teacher. Wafeeq only started writing and speaking English when he was 4 years old, as Malay was his dominant language. When he joined Write Edge, he wasn’t even able to write one paragraph. Now, he writes way longer and better! Thank you for everything that you have done for him, we really appreciate it. I hope he will continue to bloom as a writer.
Write Edge has done a great job. I think he benefitted much!
Dear Erica and Management of Write Edge, we would like to compliment Teacher Jessica for being a great teacher. Teacher Jessica is a responsible, dedicated and experienced teacher. Our eldest daughter, Reina Soh, enjoys her lessons very well and we are happy that she is learning well. We have seen marked improvements in her composition writing.
Dear Teacher Berlin, Janelle started during the term 2 and I am really impressed after a few lessons and she is able to write with impressive phrases. After going through her writings in Write Edge these few terms, it surpassed all of my expectations. Thank you for guiding her and I appreciate your hard work and effort that you put in teaching her.
I am pleased to share that Joey has improved based on her prelims results for paper 1. She used to get 24-26/40 but now she is able to get 32/40. However, 2 marks were deducted due to spelling and punctuation mistakes. Overall it was good! I could see that her standard of writing was elevated. Thank you!
Many Thanks to Write Edge’s management and team for the work. Big thank you for the utmost dedication of time, love for teaching and care in ensuring that the kids are getting the best out from each class. Well done to gem Teacher Lena for going the extra mile. I have great peace of mind knowing that my children are in good hands with Write Edge!
Dear Teacher Maxine, thank you so much for teaching me these few months. My compositions are now the best in the class. Before I attended Write Edge, I used to get 19/40 for almost all my compositions. After I attended Write Edge, I got 31/40, and passed with flying colours! I was over the moon as I was 1st in class. Right here, I learnt many new phrases and show-not-tell methods. Now I also know how to apply those phrases and concepts to my compositions, making them more interesting. Of all the tuitions I have, Write Edge is the most exciting tuition I attended. The 1 hour and 30 minutes is always not enough. I really appreciate everything you have done.
In the short 3 months that Han Xi is enrolled in Write Edge, we are surprised and pleased that his writing skill has improved tremendously. We didn’t expect that he is able to write a full composition at this age/level that included idioms, onomatopoeia expressions and other replacement words taught in Write Edge!
We attribute this improvement to the interesting, creative and fun curriculums that encourage the children to express their thoughts during lesson. Moreover, all the teachers in Write Edge have been genuinely amazing! Teacher Szeli has been constantly communicating with us about the development of our child. Such dedicated and patience displayed is priceless.
We are very thankful!
If your child is not doing well in his or her composition writing, I would definitely recommend you to Write Edge. My son used to write without elaboration and his ideas were not organised. Write Edge’s comprehensive and structured approach had equipped my son with the right skills to express his thoughts and penned them down on paper. Thank you Write Edge!
After attending Write Edge, both Peng Zheng and Wen Yan have made improvements in their writing skill and bank of vocabulary. Thank you Teacher Nivi (P5) and Teacher Berlin (P3) for the guidance!
Noelle showed a remarkable improvement in her writing. She improved from 22/40 to 31/40 for the last paper/compo in the last few months. She accumulated a rich library of phrases that she can use effectively for her own composition. Her love for writing grew as she attended Write Edge classes. Thank you for your patience and passion for teaching the girls.
Composition is one of the most difficult topics to teach. I am amazed at how the teacher at Write Edge is coaching my daughter in this area. For example, students are asked to memorise word bank. Teacher is very patient to guide students to build the storyline with new vocabulary. My daughter enjoys the classes and she is learning new things which the school is not teaching. Her composition is improving steadily as time goes by.
Kyleigh has made great improvement in her writing skill after she attended lessons at Write Edge. Thankful to Teacher Nicolette for her guidance and encouragement.
Andrea has improved in her English writing grades in school and she is always looking forward to the lesson. She is trained to write a composition each lesson, hence this helps her to overcome her difficulty to start/attempt a composition.
Thank you so much for making lessons so enjoyable for them!
My son, Javier is from P3 Sun 1130am class. He has improved tremendously and scored 15/20. He started attending the class since end of March. It has been a month and he has grown to be a more confident boy in his writing now. Thank you to his teacher and Write Edge.
I would like to thank the teacher for her dedication and patience. She is very caring and will give feedback about my girl’s strength and weaknesses. She also allocates extra time to make sure my girl completes her work before she leaves. No words can describe my appreciation for all your efforts, excellent attitude and patience towards your students. Thank you very much and keep up the good work!
Thumbs up for the lessons conducted for Creative Writing. We never expected that Aron could write so well. My husband and I both agree that Aron has improved alot!
My son took his PSLE two years ago, in 2012. I am very grateful to his English tutor, she guided my son in his preparation, especially with his Oral. As he is shy, he speaks in a rather mono tone. She taught him to read and pronounce very fluently. I was pretty impressed when I heard the recording. She is also very passionate about teaching and helped my son overcome his hurdle in composition writing with certain techniques. My son obtained an A for his PSLE English examination, so did two of my nieces, the following year.
My P2 daughter joined Write Edge since mid-Aug 2014. I find the teacher very passionate and encouraging when she teaches the children. My daughter enjoys going for her weekly lesson and her writing has improved a lot. She has learnt to use more idioms and descriptive words in her composition.
Thank you for teaching my girls all these years. They grew confident with the language under Teacher Nicolette’s guidance.
I enjoy as we get to joke around for a while and talk. I get to learn new skills and phrases to improve my composition. My composition marks has improved and I am happy with it.
Both my sons, Noel and Nathanael are taught by Teacher Nicolette and Teacher Eileen respectively since last year.
Both teachers are patient and friendly. My kids enjoy and look forward to their classes.
Knowing that Noel was weak in grammar, the teachers focused on that before moving on to writing. Noel improved in his English Test.
Nathanael has learning difficulties and he has been attending classes 4 times a week since last year. Teacher Eileen is very patient and carefully guides him. He has improved tremendously. From only recognizing A to Z, he can now recognize words.
The teachers will feedback to me on their progress when the class end. They are like friends and big sisters to them. Thumbs up for them!
My classes are fun, the place is nice and comfortable. I get to write stories and learn more words through the Word Bank.
My husband and I are very pleased with what Nicklaus wrote in his school composition. The teachers have taught him well!
Amira has improved and learnt skills from Write Edge since she joined in Primary 1. The curriculum and worksheets are straightforward and has covered everything that she needs in her writing.
Secondary Programmes
I just received my Mid-Year Examination results and to my amazement, I have improved from a borderline passing grade, sometimes even a failing one, to a B3 in my English! I knew that it was mostly Write Edge that had helped me achieve this. I just love how Write Edge doesn’t just throw us a pile of homework like most other tuition classes would (not saying they don’t, I receive quite an amount of homework every week too), but the practice papers are carefully chosen to cater to improve the noticed weaknesses of students.
They have been observant in identifying what many students are weaker in, creatively thought of solutions to help us, and then written said solutions out onto paper for us. Now, whenever I have an English test to study for, I can just read the notes that they have given us, remember the techniques to answer the different types of questions and then I’m good to go. I’m looking forward to improving that B3 to a distinction grade in my upcoming examinations!
Finally! Exam is over and the results are out. I am very pleased with Jia En’s final year English result. Her grade jumped from U to B!
Jia En started with Write Edge since her primary school. After PSLE, she continued with WE on her secondary school journey. In the mid-year exam, we were shocked that she received a U grade for English. We were concerned but we were not worried. We have full faith and confidence that TWC teachers will work out a way to help Jia En to improve.
Indeed, the teacher in charge at WE was very fast to customise some parts of their teaching to match Jia En’s learning ability. Although some parts of the lesson are customised, her teacher continue to stay close to the standard curriculum. By doing so, it helps Jia En to build confidence and enthusiasm in English. This also motivates her to do as well as her peers.
Thank you teacher for the patience, time and effort you have put in to support Jia En during her transition period from Primary to Secondary school.
I have been attending Write Edge for the past four years. What I have learnt in the lessons here have been useful for me not only in examinations but I am also able to use these language and writing skills into my daily life. From writing heartfelt letters to teachers to writing proposals for my school, I have done them easily by referring to the notes given to me.
Kindergarten Programmes
Over just one term at Write Edge, we have seen good progress in Hui En’s reading and writing skills, which is also echoed by her preschool teacher. Lessons and interesting and interactive, and worksheets effectively test the students grasp of the concept and different from mainstream assessment books. Thank you to Teacher Jessica who never fail to update every parent about her student’s progress even though it’s quite late into the night after class has ended.
It is rare to find passionate teachers these days and we are fortunate to have chosen Write Edge!
Charlotte has been enjoying her Kindergarten English Writing Class at Write Edge. Learning is made more interesting by encouraging children to do their own story writing/telling, while still reinforcing the correct techniques. Teachers encourage creativity by asking questions and prompting for appropriate feedback, instead of pure memorising. Pictures are also added to class materials to make them less boring for the students. Overall, it is a recommended class to start the foundation for Primary English.
I feel that the curriculum is very well structured and age appropriate. The worksheets are interesting, some are colourful with pictures. The idea of using cut-outs to paste answers and using colourful markers are good techniques to engage kids to do their homework. Matilda has been lagging behind in both reading and writing. When she entered Write Edge, I am impressed that within 6 months or so, she became a much confident reader, speller and writer. Thanks to teacher Kailin and teacher Aileen for their dedicated effort and commitment to help Matilda to learn in a fun and engaging way.
Workshops
My daughter Grace Yoh (Sec 3) attended the O level English Essentials on Mastering Comprehension, on Sat 7:30 pm at Blk 134 from Aug till Sep.
She just reviewed her examination script yesterday. She obtained 37 marks out of 50 marks for comprehension. It was her best score so far, having failed this for her Weighted Assessment. The highest score in class was 39. She said that the techniques taught helped her. I am grateful to the centre for organising such a course to help students attain mastery. If time permits, I would have enrolled her for the Composition Course as well but it required extra time on her at that time. Please convey my thanks to the teacher teaching the class and also to the teacher I spoke to at the Centre who shared with me about the curriculum from the Centre. I cannot recall her name.
It gives us tips on how to make a better composition. Thank you for helping me improve and make my compo more engaging.
It is very engaging and the coach makes a concerned effort to make sure that we understand the topics learnt. You are a very engaging teacher and make sure that we can remember all that is taught. Happy teacher’s day! =)
It was fun and interesting. I learned many things during this course. Thank you for going through so many helpful things for our English.
The notes and methods were very useful and the activities were fun. Thank you for your notes and tips for us. Thank you for your patience as well! 🙂
The materials given are very detailed and well-elaborated. Thank you for teaching us with clear explanations and also using very good language and vocabulary. I have learnt many things from your lesson 🙂
It is very engaging and useful for O levels. Thank you teacher for being so sincere and giving us feedback for our writing! I will certainly value this experience and use the tips and tricks you have taught us today.
I liked how the 14 comprehension question types were summarised and explained to us. Thank you! I was able to greatly understand the comprehension types and consolidate them. You were great!
The materials given are very good. Thank you for reaching us with clear explanations.
I was able to learn how to read actively, which, together with the comprehension skills I learnt, is very helpful in tackling comprehension questions. I would like to thank the teachers for their guidance and encouragement.
