O-Level English

iceywind88:
hi I'm also looking for tuition for my 2 boys. very poor in English. anything or credentials I should be looking out for when hiring tutors?
Hi iceywind88, it will be good to find tutors who are familiar with the MOE syllabuses that are found in the SEAB website. In this case, MOE trained tutors (former or current teachers) would fit the bill though the rates they charge would usually be higher than the non-MOE tutors. Have a conversation with potential tutors to find out about how they intend to help your sons to improve in English, and you will have a good idea whether these tutors have the necessary credentials and competency.
In the meantime, try to inculcate a habit of reading on current affairs in your sons. Newspapers articles would be a good start for them to gain content knowledge that is necessary for expository writing at Upper Secondary.
Hope this helps! -

my daughter and nephews joined her last minute 1-day Olevel seminar / crash course last year. They all did English suprisingly well, we’re all quite happy. Good thing is small group, can ask questions easily.
My daughter and nephew r now doing A-level with her. Her teaching and materials r quite good. Only problem is that her fees r quite ex. plus, her place no parking, so a bit inconvenience. but quality is there. -

Hello. Long time lurker here but now I feel it's finally time to share my thoughts
I also got to know about Ms Felicia from this site, and my boy attended her O-level Crash Course 2 days ago. Thanks to the kind souls here who recommended this tutor. IMO this crash course contains confidential info that my boy's English tutor and school never cover before...I think it's good.
Good luck to those whose kids are taking O-level this year!
