At first I could not speak English because I did not have much vocabulary in my brain. After I met you I knew a lot of English that I never knew like words that were high level English etc. I studied with you to prepare for IELTS and I just got results for my IELTS and maybe it hasn't been a fortune because I failed my test but it wasn't because of who taught me but it was because of my ability that only got there. I do not blame anyone for this problem , I only blame myself because I did not try enough on this issue. I am very lucky to meet you teacher, you are like my mother, taking care of me very kindly and patiently. good luck to your life teacher.

I engaged Dorothy in 2016 to coach my daughter in IELTS as my daughter needed a minimum 7.5 for every paper in ELTS to enter the medical university of her choice in the UK. My daughter had previously obtained 8, 7.5, 7 and 6.5 before she was tutored by Dorothy. Dorothy was quick to recognize her weakness (essay paper) and gave my daughter a lot of exercises for practice, always telling her the reasons behind the mistakes besides just marking the papers. Practise makes perfect. After two lessons per week over a couple of months, my daughter achieved the min 7.5 for all papers in her IELTS.

Miss Dorothy is a very professional, patient and experienced English teacher. She is able to identify people's individual weaknesses in English and provide assistance to strengthen these weak points. She has helped me tremendously in building a strong foundation in grammar and develop different skills to write both creative pieces and professional pieces. I love how she has helped me realize the importance of grammar and punctuation as these little details have contributed greatly to the flow of a piece of writing. Besides, her ability to analyze and understand the marking criteria of various assignments has allowed me to score very well in IELTS (individual band 7) and every English writing test in college. Apart from that, I am very thankful for Miss Dorothy's patience and friendly approach as they have enabled me to learn English in a comfortable environment. She is a very loving person and I can never thank her enough for helping me achieve my dream of studying medicine. I have changed from an insecure girl who speaks broken English to a young lady who writes with good academic standard.

Cheevern

28/01/21

Mdm Dorothy is the first tutor to ever succeed in helping me achieve band 7 in both writing and speaking. She did not hesitate to criticize me when I made mistake but she was also generous with her praise and this motivated me to work harder as well as to avoid making the same mistake. With regards to writing lessons, Mdm Dorothy did not just correct my grammatical and tenses errors, she also constructed a better sentence by using her own ideas and this helped me to further improve my writing skills. She was also willing to provide her modal answers as references. With regards to speaking lessons, she started with the basics like pronunciation and enunciation. At first I was sceptical with this approach but then it all made sense. As the conversation during the speaking test is recorded, this particular lesson taught me to emphasize the 'ed' and enabled the examiner to differentiate between the past tense and the present tense.

No matter where you are in your English learning journey, Jion will definitely be able to help you improve. Thanks to his friendly personality and fluent English, the lessons are fun, interesting and easy to follow. But what I like most about him is his ability to inspire you to keep learning and growing.

Sue

29/09/21

Whether it's face-to-face or online, Jion puts a great amount of effort into coaching his students. His passion for the English language is inspiring. When I first approached him for guidance on my IELTS, I was hoping to get some quick tips on how to improve my writing. To be honest, due to the heavy workload I was dealing with, I was looking for something that could make my preparations easier. Surprisingly, Jion told me from the start that we wouldn't focus on the answering techniques. I thought that wasn't a good idea because I was struggling a bit in the previous writing paper. But I gave it a try anyway. Thank God it turned out to be the right decision. Instead of spoon-feeding me with things that I already knew, he made me see the whole picture of how to write better. For example, he showed me how to convey and organize my ideas, and explained a few ways that I could use to make the writing more interesting. All that was really helpful. Without his input, I might not have achieved the score I wished for. And I'm really grateful to Jion for making me realize that there's no shortcut to improving my writing skills. It's something that I need to continuously work on. Thank you so much for your time and effort, Jion!

Dr. Ng

29/09/21

Jion's excellent command of the language and willingness to share his knowledge are evident in his approach to language coaching. Regardless of the difficulty of the topic, he has a canny ability to explain it in a comprehensible and compelling way. When coaching undergraduates in academic writing, showing them how to present a logical and convincing argument, his grasp of linguistic nuances and attention to detail are particularly impressive.

Winnie

With so many websites giving free English learning tips these days, I thought it wouldn't be necessary to get a tutor. But after taking Jion’s one-on-one lessons, I changed my mind. For a busy working professional like me, I always wanted to improve my English without filling my schedule with too many lessons. His approach was really helpful in that regard. He shared with me plenty of tips on how to practice my English skills by myself. Wherever I go, I'm now able to use every opportunity I have to improve my English further.

She has confidence in teaching, also she is very patient, that she explains the subject in several ways until she makes the person understand the subject very well. Also at the same time she conducts doubt clearing sessions which is very helpful.

I took Econometrics with Ms Elaine.She shall teach you from scratch.There are things you understand in lay man's term and she will guide to explain in formal/exam format way.Students might recall just a snippet of certain topics but when you explain to her on just that small part,she help you recall the whole topic. She'll explain the rationale of the formula and she knows exactly what each detail means.She'll relate the formula with the graph so you understand what the graph means and you know how to read the graph. She simplify the method to calculate the formula such as substitution/differentiation (that we learn from SPM/GCE). She shall remind us that the calculus is not complicated at all, it seems complicated because we panic too much.

She’s very courageous in helping her students to understand even the simplest thing. She’s very fun to talk to and an easygoing person. I like how she understands her students very well and try to help us in anyway she could possibly have. All of her notes were very helpful to me. She gave me motivations in studying and I like how she’ll give quizzes at the end of each class so we won’t forget about things that we’ve studied.
