Testimonial by Sonia 2015

I enjoyed learning physics and solving math problem sums since pri school. I did well for the sec 2 streaming year and hence, got into a double science class. Initially, my results were average and I thought that I was fine doing self-study. However, by the second semester, both my physics and amath results started to plunge. Thus, I joined a tuition centre, hoping that I would at least attained a pass for the end of year examination in sec 3. My results not only did not improve, in fact my score was 41.0(E8) for amath and 46.5/100(D7) for physics. I was really discouraged and not motivated to strive hard and suddenly felt that my love for the subjects were dying. Then in sec 4, once again i failed physics(F9), amath(F9) and now even emath(D7). That was when i realised i needed a lot of help from someone to help me build my foundation. I joined WJE in june and was only left with 5 months before the national exam. Regardless of my poor results, Wayne was extremely encouraging and optimistic that pushed me to work extra hard. I started to see improvements and gradually rekindled my love for the subjects. I managed to get A1 for emath, A2 for physics and B3 for amath for my Os. The thing that i really liked about WJE is that after every lesson, there would be a short test where we would be given a time limit. The test allowed me to see how much i have really understood and also the topics that i should brush up. Wayne also encourages us to ask questions in class and made sure that sure that our doubts are cleared. Whereas in my previous tuition centre, the teacher would conduct lessons very quickly without making sure that slower learners like me could comprehend the concepts. However at WJE, Wayne ensure that everyone is on the right track. Lessons are usually very enjoyable as Wayne would crack jokes and this helped to create a livelier atmosphere. Lastly, thank you Wayne for always believing in me i really appreciate the things you've done for me!! :)
