I used to think that primary school English tuition was redundant as we speak fluent English. However, having gone through PSLE once with my eldest son, I realise it’s a lot about knowing grammar rules and answering techniques – something very foreign to a native English speaker. The Rowan Tree teachers have a lot of experience in teaching primary school English and preparing them for the PSLE exams. The teachers are also very friendly! Highly recommended!

Our son has been studying with Mrs Vanessa since The Learning Lab days. During Covid, we have seen her conducting class online. We are impressed by her patience to listen and her efficient communication with kids. She is strict, but at the same time, shows great affection. My son definitely enjoyed her class and has progressed a lot in English. At The Rowan Tree, our son  joined Mrs Deborah’s class. An equally qualified and passionate teacher, Mrs Deborah always makes her classes interesting and informative. The class materials cover a wide range of topics, which definitely attracts our son’s attention. We are confident in The Rowan Tree, and will sign up our daughter with the two wonderful teachers as well.

I enjoy attending English classes at Rowan Tree. I like all the teachers there. They are very good and taught me a lot of techniques that helped me improve, especially for composition. There are few students in the class so the teacher has more time to go through my work. I also like the worksheets as they are interesting and have nice pictures.

My 2 kids were taught by Mrs Vanessa starting from K1. They are now in P6 and P4. A very dedicated, responsible and professional teacher, she has helped build a solid English foundation for my kids. This has definitely helped them greatly as they aced through their Primary School English journey smoothly. Ms Van (as she’s affectionately known) is also a very approachable and patient teacher whom the kids can turn to for further explanation or help when needed.

My daughter has been learning English with Mrs Liu since she was in K2 in 2020. At the start, she struggled with presentations and reading. But in time, presentations became a fun activity for her and reading was a channel for her to gain knowledge and learn interesting things. Having been exposed to good presentation and oral skills, she was awarded with Best Orator Award in P1 and P2. That really boosted her confidence and public speaking was less daunting for her. In addition, her increased stock of vocabulary of “bigger” words, similes and idioms has helped her express herself better in writing and speaking. Most importantly, she never fails to look forward to her English lessons every week and always comes out smiling, happy and chatty. Naturally, it was a no-brainer to join Mrs Liu at The Rowan Tree. It’s my daughter’s fourth year learning with Mrs Liu and we look forward to happy learning with many more.

My daughter really enjoys Mrs Deborah Kwek’s lessons! She has so much to share about the lessons! She shared with me that if they finish their work earlier, she can watch some documentary videos – like the other time she watched a clip about the blue dragons. Thank you for making the lessons so interesting for the kids!

My daughter Elyse scored AL1 for English and I am so grateful to The Rowan Tree for making this possible. Thanks to the dedication and positive reinforcement from Mrs Tan, she jumped from an AL3 to AL1 in one year!

My 2 sons were coached by Mrs Tan before sitting for their PSLE and they both scored AL1! Her dedication to helping her students achieve the best that they can is unwavering.
