What Our P6 Parents And Students Are Saying About Us
Her great improvement to getting AL2 is definitely impossible without Teacher Sabrina’s dedication and hardwork in coaching her.
Hayley is very thankful to hv met Teacher Sabrina. Her great improvement to getting AL2 is definitely impossible without Teacher Sabrina’s dedication and hardwork in coaching her. She has grown from a shy timid girl to someone who can breeze through oral examinations, and always strive to excel in all other components because she doesn’t want to disappoint Teacher Sabrina!
In the following months, we saw steady progress in her school essay practices, with her scores gradually improving and eventually stabilizing at 33–34 points.
At the end of April this year, we discovered TF online and contacted Teacher Evelyn. At that time, my daughter’s writing scores were inconsistent, with her highest score being 31 points. She often struggled to complete her essays within the allocated time during practice sessions. After reviewing one of my daughter’s recent essays, Teacher Evelyn patiently shared her insights and recommendations. Trusting the positive Google reviews, we decided to start online classes with her.
During the first month and a half, there wasn’t significant improvement in my daughter’s essays. However, Teacher Evelyn’s meticulous and thoughtful feedback, along with her encouraging words, gradually sparked my daughter’s interest in writing. My daughter would often compliment the teacher’s detailed comments and revisions, which motivated her even more. Over time, we noticed a remarkable change —she became more confident in her writing and no longer avoided it. Teacher Evelyn guided her to focus on spelling and grammar during the writing process, and my daughter worked hard to follow this advice.
In the following months, we saw steady progress in her school essay practices, with her scores gradually improving and eventually stabilizing at 33–34 points. Beyond writing, my daughter’s trust and admiration for Teacher Evelyn extended to all areas of the online classes. She approached every lesson with seriousness and enthusiasm, striving to do her best. Teacher Evelyn, with her professionalism and patience, also took the time to answer every question my daughter raised.
This year, my daughter achieved AL1 in the PSLE, a result we are incredibly proud of. We are deeply grateful to Teacher Evelyn for her unwavering support, encouragement, and guidance. She is not only a highly professional and responsible educator but also a kind and gentle mentor who truly cares about her students. Thank you, Teacher Evelyn, for making such a positive impact on my daughter’s learning journey!
Teacher Evelyn is highly qualified and dedicated teacher who consistently goes the extra mile to give detailed, personalised feedback and focused high quality teaching.
Thinking Factory is a trustworthy English school. We have been going there for 1.5 years. Teacher Evelyn is highly qualified and dedicated teacher who consistently goes the extra mile to give detailed, personalised feedback and focused high quality teaching. Her clear and carefully taught techniques and strategies have translated to significant improvements in my kid’s English language performance. She knows exactly how to help kids prepare for school English exams. Best of all, my kid enjoys the lessons because all of this is done in an engaging way. I am very grateful that my kid scored an AL1 under Teacher Evelyn guidance.
She creates a positive learning environment, fostering confidence and enthusiasm in Nicole. Nicole scored AL2 in her PSLE and we are grateful for the impact Thinking Factory made.

The extra sessions for oral and revisions given to the student prior to the national examinations help prepare and motivate them to strive for greater heights.
Enrolling my twins with Thinking Factory has been a blessing for us and words just can’t express our gratitude to Teacher Evelyn enough.
The extra sessions for oral and revisions given to the student prior to the national examinations help prepare and motivate them to strive for greater heights. My twins, Kieran and Kyla have improved in their English by leaps and bounds under her guidance.
Teacher Evelyn not only engages her students, but also provide regular feedback and advice to parents on the children’s progression and performance. She also shared with parents the oral and composition topics from the various schools.
This year 2023, had been a rocky year for my twins, especially for my girl. Teacher Evelyn went the extra mile to give them more practices, putting in extra time to coach them and communicate with us on how to work with her to support them better. Her constant encouragement to my children has helped boost their confidence and they did well in their PSLE.
Once again, thank you Teacher Evelyn for including my twins in her path of teaching and being a such wonderful teacher.
Teacher Evelyn goes beyond just teaching.
She’s also concerned about how you fare on your SA papers, prelims, compositions etc.We are so grateful to have found Teacher Evelyn & Thinking Factory at the end of P5 in 2022.
I wished we had attended her classes much earlier. Teacher Evelyn’s classes are well structured and covers all the components of the English paper really well. I especially liked that they did either a compo or a situational writing every week and also focused on paper 2 – that way, no aspect was ever neglected. The consistency was crucial to seeing an improvement in my daughter’s grades.
Oral practices started months before PSLE orals and the kids were given lots of opportunities to practice. Lots of topics were covered and she preps them well for it. Teacher Evelyn goes beyond just teaching. She’s also concerned about how you fare on your SA papers, prelims, compositions etc. She has never hesitated to answer questions or to look through work not related to class (work). We will forever be grateful to Teacher Evelyn for her passion and utmost dedication to teaching the kids! I highly recommend her classes – start as early as you can ! I am looking forward to sending my P2 to Thinking Factory next year :)
The lessons were very effective as I observed my son gained confidence in both composition writing and oral presentation.
I made the right decision to arrange my son to attend English classes at Thinking Factory since early this year. The lessons were very effective as I observed my son gained confidence in both composition writing and oral presentation. He enjoyed attending the lessons. The programme covered all aspects to prepare the P6 students for PSLE. Teacher Evelyn is a very experienced teacher. She identified the weak areas and helped my son to learn the right techniques and improved his skills. Thank you very much, Teacher Evelyn!
Once again, thank you so much for your guidance. Hope to hear from you soon with regards to the P2 class for my girl, Zheng Xi!
Yours sincerely
We are deeply appreciative of Ms Evelyn’s patient and tailored approach with both our children to bring out the best of their abilities.
We enrolled RK for Thinking Factory’s classes at the end of P4 after seeing the great work that Ms Evelyn was doing with his sister RL in the lead up to PSLE 2020. While the sister went on to do very well, we were more measured in our expectations for RK as he approaches his studies in quite a different manner and had less solid foundations. To our great and pleasant surprise, his AL1 in PSLE 2022 English exceeded all our expectations. It is clear to us that Ms Evelyn’s tutelage was key to this outcome; she constantly worked with us, for example to nudge RK when added motivation was needed and for strategies to address specific areas of weaknesses. We are deeply appreciative of Ms Evelyn’s patient and tailored approach with both our children to bring out the best of their abilities. Both of our children also said that they enjoyed the lessons. Her classes are highly recommended if you are looking beyond cookie-cutter tuition classes to level up your child’s English abilities!
My child benefited also by the in-depth Oral preparation and many rounds of 1-1 in-person oral tests Teacher Evelyn conducted with her students.
My child attended Thinking Factory at the start of P6. He really enjoys his lessons at Thinking Factory! He always shares with me that Teacher Evelyn is patient and showers him with lots of encouragement. Teacher Evelyn has helped my child improve and prepare well for all his English tests, including oral, situational writing, composition, and comprehension. In addition to the nurturing environment, I am also extremely satisfied with the curriculum here.
The lessons in Thinking Factory are well planned and crafted. Efficient vast coverage on different English paper 2 components plus either SW or CW done in every lesson. I like not only that Thinking Factory covers all the components tested for PSLE including oral but also, all of these are covered in one class. Unlike other centres, the English subject is split up into 2-3 different classes. This can be daunting and time-consuming for a P6 child having to attend several classes just for English subject alone.
My child benefited also by the in-depth Oral preparation and many rounds of 1-1 in-person oral tests Teacher Evelyn conducted with her students. My child has learnt and picked up useful concepts to approach his oral exam questions confidently.
What really makes Thinking Factory outstanding is Teacher Evelyn’s genuine passion for her students’ learning. Due to unforeseen circumstances, my child needed to stop lessons at Thinking Factory. Yet, Teacher Evelyn never stopped to offer her help in many ways leading to the PSLE dates. She continued to check on my child by sending us her lesson materials for his learning. She will reply to any English papers questions from us even after my child has stopped lessons at Thinking Factory. Teacher Evelyn is the best English teacher we have known.
Thank you, Teacher Evelyn. We are deeply grateful for your dedication and all that you have done.
There are many tutors out there but none like Teacher Evelyn.
There are many tutors out there but none like Teacher Evelyn.
She is dedicated, very responsive and we really appreciate how impartial she is to her students. She conducts her class with a firm hand. Our only regret is that we didn’t discover her classes earlier. She has really spoiled us and set a high standard for the teachers to come.
I am especially grateful to teacher Evelyn for her extensive composition planning sessions and the way she patiently answers our questions for English composition and situational writing.
Teacher Evelyn is an amazing tutor. Her enthusiasism and ability to command respect from her students is extremely impressive. Over the past year in Thinking Factory under the guidance of teacher Evelyn, my English has improved by a full achievement level. I am especially grateful to teacher Evelyn for her extensive composition planning sessions and the way she patiently answers our questions for English composition and situational writing.
I do not believe that I would have done as well as I did for English composition and situational writing had my mother not discovered teacher Evelyn’s classes. The way she teaches us to scrutinise the questions also have taught us to always be on guard when it comes to English. Her lessons are always something to look forward to and I never walk out of the door without learning something new
All in all, I am extremely grateful to teacher Evelyn for helping me boost both my skills and confidence in english and helping me attain my desired achievement level and guiding me on my journey through P6! Thank you teacher!

About Teacher Evelyn
(Our Founder)
After almost 10 years of teaching in a Primary school, Teacher Evelyn decided to leave the service to live and teach abroad for 5 years.
During her happy 10 years of teaching, she specialised in English Language for the PSLE year. She taught both students who were strong in English and those who found the language challenging.
Teacher Evelyn believes that teaching goes hand-in-hand with learning.
She graduated with a Bachelor of Arts, specialising in English Language and Literature and a Diploma in Education. She decided to pursue a Master degree in Education at NTU, after the birth of her second child. During the year that she worked on her dissertation, she started giving tuition to a few students at home. The few students grew quickly into groups of students through word of mouth.
After receiving her Masters of Education, she was not willing to leave her students without a tutor so Teacher Evelyn put aside her pursuit of her PHD and became a full-time English Language tutor.
In 2018, she opened up her centre, Thinking Factory Education Centre, at Bukit Timah Shopping Centre, to accommodate her growing number of students and hopes that it will be a happy and conducive place of learning for them.
She started her blog soon after she began giving tuition as a means to help parents who do not have an English tutor for their child due to personal choice or financial reasons. Growing up without having the financial means to employ tutors, Teacher Evelyn’s hope is that her blog is able to help parents and students who can use her material to study at home. She is also proud of her students’ effort in writing and puts their compositions up on her blog as a means of encouragement.
Teacher Evelyn’s aim for her students is to find a balance between a love of writing & learning the English Language with the mastery of the components for examinations.
