Testimonials

Tay Xiu Ling--Hi Mr Foo, thanks again for all your guidance and hard work helping me to excel in maths! I would not have gotten an A without your help! Thank you so much! (01 Mar 2013)

Amelia Goh-- Hello Mr Foo! Happy Teachers Day! Thank you for being such a great maths tutor and helping me to improve so much. (06 June 3013)

Irene Ng ---- Dear Mr Foo,Thank you for your maths coaching to my son, Royston Chan. He had improved his Maths marks tremendously for the effort that you had guided him along. All the while, he did poorly in his Maths tests. But with your guidance he obtained a pass in his O Level Exam, with only a few lessons of teaching him. Thanks so much Mr Foo. Cheers! Irene Ng (Roston Chan's mother),(14 Jan 2014).
