A truly capable team of dearly loved English MOE teachers (former HOD, Senior Teacher, Curriculum Writers, Prelim Setters) at Apricity Academy!

With substantial teaching experience (more than 15 years for each of us), our strategies are well honed, and most importantly, every child receives individualised attention.

Experienced teachers are like sought-after craftsmen. We take great care in preparing the materials, and even greater care in engaging our students in the classroom.

As your child progresses to the next level (in Pri, Sec or JC), more is demanded of them. The MOE English syllabus has undergone major revisions, and we know the why, the how, and the what.

When is it a good time to maximise your child's chances of scoring a distinction for English?

More importantly, who is in the best position to coach your child towards success?

A truly capable team of former English MOE teachers (HOD, Senior Teacher, Curriculum Writers, Prelim Setters) are here to address the frustration that so many parents feel towards their children's reluctance to learn English.

As your child progresses to the next level (in Pri, Sec or JC), more is demanded of them. The MOE English syllabus has undergone major revisions, and we know the why, the how, and the what.

As such, when is it a good time to reverse your child's reluctance towards learning English?

Dear Parents and Sec 3 Students

Final Year Examinations are approaching and many students are still unsure of what is required to score a distinction for their English..

Sometimes, self-study can be useful, but there is a faster and more effective way to move ahead.

With very limited time, it becomes so important to seek out the best and most effective resources that complements each student's unique learning style.

With only 6 students in each class, close attention is given to each student, and homework is customised to meet each student's learning needs.

Come for a trial session ($50) and make full of your Saturday mornings!

Whatsapp Mrs Joey Tan @ 87968929 today!

"All progress takes place outside the comfort zone" - Michael John Bobak (Digital Artist)

Students, do you feel as though learning GP becomes a chore day by day, as if a great weight has been placed on your shoulders and there's no way you can shake it off?

Maybe it's because you have using the same methods that you have learnt (in your secondary schools), but for some reason, this approach has not worked?

Maybe it's also because you haven't pushed yourself out of your comfort zone, and asked the really difficult questions about how to make a significant improvement to your reading and writing strategies?

Have a chat with me and find out how 😄

Having taught GP for many years, I am fully aware of the obstacles facing JC students and how these can be overcome. I have also taught students from diverse academic backgrounds, and with varying learning styles.

As one student wrote in her card to me, "Mrs Tan knows GP inside out", and it is very true. Having graded hundreds of scripts and prepared many sets of examination papers, I know what is required to score a Distinction at the 'A' Levels. Let me share these precious gems of knowledge with you!

GP Tuition (Group and Individual) Lessons for IP & JC students are now available on Zoom (with safety precautions taken).

After the Circuit Breaker period, these lessons will continue at Toa Payoh (5 mins' walk from Toa Payoh MRT) on Weekdays and Saturdays.
