Before enrolling into Wayne Jones Eduhouse, i've had 2 other tuitions already. I thought this would just be another tuition centre, however, I was proven otherwise.
I was told of WJE by a friend named Dion, a student of WJE and he brought me to meet Wayne at the end of sec 3(Dec 2010), my liking for WJE grew ever since. I started lessons officially during the first week of dec 2010 with a grade of F9 for Amaths. Due to my weak foundation of sec 3 topics, i had difficulty in understanding his lessons at first, however, Wayne is a patient teacher and always have his ways of making students understand. He would provide his students with free drinks and light snacks during lessons to keep them awake to be able to continue with the lessons, he would crack jokes at really random moments that cause everyone to burst into laughter. He never fails to keep the class lively regardless of any level of students. Besides the free drinks and snacks, he also provided all his students with his "self-compiled monthly exampapers packages" and his very own A5 size Edupads for us to do his homework in. The Edupad is a no other ordinary exercise book, it gives students the motivation to do our homework which is an essential part for improving in our grades! He created formulas-inspired bookmarks to aid his students in Amaths. WayneJones Eduhouse became more of a home to me, a 3rd one if i were to consider school my 2nd. We not only study there but also we have bonding sessions at his recreational room with other students where we would play educational games to know each other and students from different schools better.
Besides all the fun, Wayne is very serious when it comes to our academic performances. He gives us complimentary tests when our exam is nearing. I'll never forget all the test given since midyears to prelims. These tests prepares us for our exam to secure at least a B. I can say i really improved to a B in mid years only after completing his tests, so to current WJE students out there reading this, please do all his tests for your own good!
One of my most memorable experience of WJE was his end of year chalet for the upper sec students! You can never find a chalet which is so well prepared from head to toe, meaning the food, beverages, games, music etc and the best part is that it's free of charge! Now that i've graduated from WJE(2011), i'm proud to say that i've gotten an A1 for both my maths for O'levels, an improvement from F9-A1 for Amaths. I'm not the only student Wayne had made to achieve great improvements and distinctions, my other peers that attended tuition with me earned their distinction for both maths or at least a B3! He is a truly amazing teacher that inspires student to do well, I'm really grateful to him and thankful to be his student. ~Janser Chua
What i remembered of Janser:
My first impression of Janser was "Could he be another joker who would be disruptive to the class?" I was quite apprehensive initially at how Janser could be serious to his learning of Amaths. It turned out that Janser was participating constructively in lessons, and in a way benefitted students in the same class. Challenging fortnightly "Killer" Amaths tests were prepared to stretch their potential in Amaths, Janser and another student named Jeremy are two "siao" (Hokkien: crazy) students who find excitement in solving the Amaths paper despite the difficulty. They would be eager to know how well they have fared for the papers. They would be happy if they could just pass the paper.
Month by Month, I saw the improvement in Janser's Amaths, and he even began to teach his friends in school. Like i always told them that it is good to teach friends, because in a way you build good karma and also "To teach is to learn twice".
Janser came to WJE early and this has given me more time to build up his foundations. His obtaining of both A1 in Mathematics is not sheer coincidence, but his willingness to step forward to seek intervention/ help early and his resilience in picking himself up and do better than the last. Even after he has graduated from WJE, i do hope that his learning experience here would help him to be more resilient to the challenges waiting for him out there. And I'm very positive he WILL!
