Sean Chew Xiangwu, Pei Tong Primary School, 3B 26.06.11
Since Primary 1, my composition and journal have been bad. I struggled when I wrote my composition and journal and only earned average marks in school. My mother’s colleague recommended Joanne Choo Language Centre to us. After coming to this centre in Primary 2, I have learnt many new phrases. Though Mrs Choo has pushed me to my limits, I do not dread writing. Instead, I am beginning to like composition and now I write fluently. I have even improved in my comprehension. I have learnt to answer comprehension questions like Mrs Choo straight to the point. Before, I used to just scrape through with passing marks but now I can get almost full marks.

My cousins, Marcus Seet and Jasper Seet, recommend me to this tuition and they are still in Joanne Choo Language Centre too. Marcus has been here since primary and now secondary 4 next year. Jasper has been years since primary one. Next year, he will be in primary 6. Before coming here, my paper was poorly done. After coming here, my marks have improved a lot. I hope my marks will improve. Now, my mother also sends my brother and sister, both in secondary schools here too after seeing improvement in all of us .

I used to hate composition and comprehension. However, when I started to attend Mrs Choo’s lessons, I started enjoying the lessons. Sometimes, the children’s and Mrs Choo’s mimes are so funny. We roar with laughter. Now, I like composition and comprehension. I can understand the comprehension better after learning the difficult words and phrases here.
Sun Ya Qi Alvin, Clementi Primary School, P3/8 25.06.11
My mother’s friends have introduced me here. I was very poor in English when I was in P2. When I came to Mrs Choo’s class, I learnt a lot of phrases. Mrs Choo always tell us jokes. She teaches with inspiration. Now, I like English very much as it is very interesting.

I used to get borderline pass for composition. After attending Mrs Choo’s classes for about a year, I improved. Now, my class teacher even reads out my compositions to the class. My cousin, Laressa Tan Yan Ying from P4A recommended me here. Her sister, Joyce Tan Yen Ling, was here in P2 now already in the Poly. Another cousin, Keith Tan De Xun P2J from Keming P Sch is also in the class. All of us enjoy writing essays.
Lei Yu Yolanda, NHPS, 3E 26.06.11
My compositions were once short and dull. I had joined Joanne Choo Language Centre since P1. It is because of Mrs Choo’s help that my compositions have begun to improve. My sister, Lei Lu, also from Nan Hua Primary School, 6E, stopped attending tuition lessons at this centre because she was overconfident and believed she had learnt all that she could. But I encouraged her to come back. Sadly, she cannot appreciate the joy of learning from Mrs Choo. I, however, hope my compositions can improve further so my teachers will let me read my compositions in front of the whole class.
Joanne Tan Hui Li, Henry Park Primary School, 3I(4) 09/07/11
I came in P2. Before I came, my compositions were very plain and were in simple English with a lot of mistakes. But after attending Mrs Choo’s classes, I have improved a lot in my composition and comprehension. Now, my teacher always reads my compositions to the class and I usually get high marks for comprehension too. My elder sister, Jacqueline, had also been here. Mrs Choo’s classes are always fun and interesting.
