Mr Russell is a very fun, passionate and engaging teacher. When I first joined the tuition centre, I honestly felt that it was just like any other tuition centre and I never knew that English was a subject that could be studied. I only joined 2.5 months before the O levels examination and I managed to make a lot of improvements. I would usually get around C6 for most of my English tests and school examinations, but I managed to achieve a B3 at the O Levels in 2019.
The notes provided at the centre were completely different from those given in my school. My school’s notes did not really cover the skills and content needed to tackle the subject. However at TTT, the notes were really in-depth and the notes really covered more things that the school didn’t cover. I really like that Mr Russell covered the techniques to answer each and every different question type and he also provided a lot of effective drills for us to master the necessary skills. I felt that it really helped me in my revision and my understanding of the subject. In school, they would also usually teach exam techniques only when it’s close to the exam. Many of my classmates would usually start to panic and be anxious. However, at TTT, all techniques were taught and we also did several practices to make sure that we know how to apply the step by step strategies. TTT lessons are very well structured and I felt that I was learning more than my friends in school.
I would like to recommend my teacher to other students as the way he teaches is very systematic and very organised. He teaches at a pace that suits the students and ensures that all our doubts and queries are answered. He is definitely the best English teacher that I’ve ever had in my whole secondary school life.
