Ying Xuan has been attending Tien Hsia Language School since Nursery 2. Over the five years, I’ve seen her grow into a confident Chinese learner. Thanks to her teacher’s encouragement, she started writing Hanyu Pinyin for her spelling words from Primary 1. This small habit helped her tremendously with pronunciation and improved her Pinyin skills. I’m also proud that she reads independently now, carefully understanding passages instead of just searching for answers. She’s also confident in communicating with her teachers in Mandarin. She enjoys attending school and makes sure to complete her weekly 听写 and 朗读 well. I truly believe her interest in Chinese is thanks to the dedicated teachers at Tien Hsia Language School.

Qin Xi has been with Tien Hsia for 11 years, starting from Nursery 1 and continuing through to Secondary 2. Tien Hsia was the top choice due to its strong reputation and MOE-aligned syllabus. Over the years, especially during P5 and P6, I noticed that Qin Xi’s vocabulary, Chinese foundation, and exam preparation were far ahead of her peers who attended tuition at other centres. The teachers at Tien Hsia are supportive and considerate, always providing the guidance Qin Xi needs. With structured learning and regular revisions, Tien Hsia created an environment conducive to growth. The results convinced me to register both my children for Chinese education at Tien Hsia.
