Ms Foo’s explanation is short and clear. She is willing to help me anytime as long as she is free. She is a very nice and kind teacher. She doesn’t mind repeating the same concept for me regardless how many times I asked. She tries to make herself free to help me out. It would be more beneficial for a student who is well prepared for content to attend her lesson.Thankful to have met her and being taught by her. I hope I do not disappoint her.

Ms Foo is a really caring and bubbly teacher who tries her best to make the lesson as enjoyable as possible. She constantly brings in real life examples to illustrate certain Economic concepts, which makes it feel more interesting than just reading it off the notes. I personally feel that I’ve learnt much more under Ms Foo’s guidance than the two year’s of teaching in my school and I am really thankful that I have been taught by her. I hope that I’ll be able to do Ms Foo proud in my upcoming A Levels examination!

Going for Ms Foo’s tuition was like a place for me to reinforce my learning, put my Economics skills into practice and also learn new skills so as to better prepare myself for the upcoming examinations! Ms Foo makes us think on the spot whenever we are answering her questions, allowing us to simulate exam conditions where we also have to read the question, refer to the case and also think on the spot to craft our answers!  In addition to that, going for Ms Foo’s tuition allowed me to gain more knowledge on Economic terms that were not taught in school. She also further prepares us, by giving us concise notes for us to refresh our memory and revise.

Ms Foo is also a very caring teacher, whenever she sees that we are all very tired, she tries to lighten up the mood or wakes us up by telling jokes or sharing personal stories!  These jokes never fail to make me laugh.

Hello Ms Foo,

Thank you for teaching me and being patient with me. I joined EconsLab without much knowledge and skills for Economics but you slowly taught me skills and answering techniques, and I feel that I have improved a lot under your guidance. Lessons with you was always engaging and it really helped me in my learning and understanding of the topic better. Although there are areas where we are weak in, you never gave up on us and instead spurred us on and give us comments on how we could better improve our answers. It has been a great joy and pleasure to have been under your guidance.

Ms Foo is a very friendly and understanding teacher who always does her best to help me with my Economics. Without her, I would not have noticed the flaws in my essay writings and concepts. She conducts the lesson in a warm, conducive and engaging manner that allows us to learn well. I also like her flexible way of conducting the lessons.

Ms Foo’s teaching methods surpass even my own teachers’ in SAJC. Giving us time to generate points force us to review whatever we have learnt and apply it in the given context. Her recommended time window for reading the case studies and questions helps me to finish my analysis quickly to tackle the questions as soon as possible.

Despite the short time I spent with her, I think Ms Foo has really helped me a great deal in identifying my weakness in Economics and working with me to improve my ability to answer questions. I enjoyed the lessons with Ms Foo as she is a very approachable teacher. I can have free and easy discussions with her about my doubts in Economics.

Ms Foo is very enthusiastic in her teaching and will always answer my questions every time I ask one. She never fails to be clear with her explanations and would always ensure that we understood her explanations before continuing on. Her feedback to my every points during discussions are very constructive, and would always encourage me to speak up even if I am not sure because she goes by the philosophy of ‘it is better to get it wrong here than in the exams’.

Lessons with Ms Foo have been fruitful and enjoyable. Under her, I have learnt how to analyse questions and provide the necessary conditions to answer the questions. I have learnt more about Economics as a subject that requires critical thinking and analysis and relevance to real issues as opposed to one that consisted of blindly memorizing notes.

Hello Ms Foo!

I just like to say a big Thank You to you for slowing instilling a sense of love for Economics! When I first came, I thought Economics was a very abstract subject and I wanted to give it up. But you made me continue with Economics and I’m truly glad that I made the right choice to carry on with the subject! Thank you so much for not giving up on me and for encouraging me to continue taking Economics! This is all through your understanding and precise teaching which is why I finally understood Economics.

I first came to Ms Foo because I had done poorly in the school common test of my final year in 2009. Along with strengthening my foundation in Economics, her personally prepared notes and lessons also helped in my understanding and application of key concepts. She taught me several techniques which came in useful in answering essay and case study questions, also providing me with external reading material such as newspaper clippings. These expanded my views on how Economics principles are woven into almost every aspect of society and increased my interest in the subject.

In the span of 3 to 4 months, I managed to pull my grade up from an ‘E’ to a ‘B’ in the A Levels. Ms Foo’s lively, interactive lessons led me to ask more questions and to view societal issues in a more discerning light. Thanks!

Before I began Economics lessons with Ms Foo, I endured nearly an entire year of failing this baffling subject in 2008. To me, Economics seemed rather abstract, like something I could survive without understanding. Armed with that attitude, I acquired countless ‘S’ and ‘U’ grades rather consistently.

However, when a friend of mine had me convinced of Ms Foo’s competence and adeptness in teaching, I decided to give Economics tuition classes a shot in 2009.

Ms Foo’s patience and dedication proved effective, as my grades for Economics improved steadily from ‘S’s and ‘U’s to ‘D’s and finally ‘A’ in the A levels! Her precise and clear explanations made information palatable, and her illustrations made them memorable! Economics miraculously became my favourite subject, and I’m so glad the knowledge Ms Foo has imparted in me is able to help me better understand many scenarios and situations in the world!

Thank you Ms Foo! :D

After joining Ms Foo’s tuition for Economics, my grades have significantly improved. From getting an S during my prelims in 2009, through her dedication in teaching and her willingness to help, I got a B for my Economics paper for my ‘A’ Levels. Within this short amount of time of 2 months, it is indeed a miracle for me to be able to jump by 5 grades and surely this is a fact that only Ms Foo can help me to achieve.

Her constant challenges to me so that I can improve and motivate myself to do better, her ‘never-give-up’ on me attitude had certainly a big role to play for me to be able to achieve the kind of results I have. Especially after getting a S for my Economics prelims, it was her encouragement that got me on my feet again to study for my A’s.

Truly a great and inspiring teacher who never fails to care for her students. I would like to say a big Thank You and I really appreciate the efforts you have put in for me!

After doing badly in the subject, I decided to seek help in learning Economics. As this subject was new to me, I needed assistance to understand the many Economic concepts. And through Ms Foo’s guidance, the subject became much clearer to me.

Ms Foo is very thorough in her guidance. Through her patience, explanations and real-life examples, I was able to grasp the Economic concepts. She also gave me very good pointers in answering questions. This has led to my essays having more depth in analysis and evaluation.

During the short period in which she coached me in my learning, I have gained much and have more confidence in the subject. Through her guidance, I did remarkably well in the final exams in 2009, scoring a distinction in the subject!

I am very pleased with my result, and Ms Foo played a huge role in helping me achieve it. I appreciate her guidance very much!
