"There is this saying: "The mediocre teacher tells. The good teacher explains. The superior teacher demonstrates. The great teacher inspires." Well, Wayne falls under the "great teacher" category. Wayne's lessons comprehensively covers Mathematics chapters taught at school. Through his relentless efforts to motivate us and devising his own unique methods to enable easy memorising and understanding of formulas, us students achieve an in-depth understanding of each chapter before we proceed to the next. Furthermore, this understanding is reinforced through regular tests held to ensure we keep what we have learnt in the previous lessons in mind. His dedication and sincere concern towards us students is also evident in his willingness to initiate one-to-one lessons with students who take longer to understand the syllabus - including me at one point of time - even despite some students' refusal. Through encouraging students to consistently put in effort, Wayne transforms us into motivated and dilligent students. Lessons are also made lively and fun with small yet beautiful amenities such as the laminated bookmarks given to us with mathematical formulas written on it. And not to forget his occasional attempt at humour in class which always cracks us up. "Success is the sum of small efforts repeated day in and day out" - I still vividly remember this written on a placard in the Eduhouse. Wayne's energy and confidence in us students has definitely inspired us, pushing us beyond our comfort zone and maximising our potentials. In fact, I joined Wayne Jones Eduhouse when I was in Secondary One with a 3/25 for my first Common Test Maths Paper. Fast forward 4 years later, I've secured an A2 for my "O" Level AMaths and an A1 for my EMaths!!" - Lucas Lee, Chung Cheng High School (Yishun)
