Our Beliefs
Children are suffering in schools. They are bored by the monotonous learning methods of reciting, copying and staying still in class. By the time exams come around the corner, you hear the sounds of children dreading studying time, because that means having to sit at a table for hours, staring at a textbook and mumbling the facts over and over just to get it into their heads.

Our founder’s own children were able to excel in school not because they sat at their study table memorizing facts. They were taught at a young age to concentrate and to absorb information in fun, imaginative ways. Reading was never a dread because they always saw it as an enjoyable activity while bonding with parents over storybooks. Because of this relaxed, fun form of training done since they were as young as 1 year old, the children reaped the benefits far into the future of their schooling years.

We want to see this generation of children grow up to love learning. We would love to see them create, innovate and impact the world. We want to cultivate other styles of learning besides the traditional method of books and writing. We use play, creativity, conversation and imagination.

This is why our classes are conducted for children from the age of three because we believe the first few years of a child’s life are the most crucial period of absorbing information. It is at this age they are able to quickly create connections in their absorbent brain. In our brain training classes, we provide an environment to stimulate the young child’s senses in a non-pressuring manner. This allows them to grow at their own pace while gaining tons of knowledge and storing it for future use.

Our Methods

Our methods include using flashcards, audio-visual aids, exciting games, group interaction and lots more. Photo-imaging methods are also one of our main ways of training children to absorb information. Using this method, children see words and mathematics as images in their minds, which is a better, more efficient way of learning. We also teach the children to imagine creative stories to remember sequences of pictures. This imagination method helps these memories to stay in the child’s mind for a longer time, which will be an advantage when they start studying for school.

Our Founder

Josephine has been involved in early childhood education for more than 20 years. She was a preschool operator since 1995 and she has conducted many other enrichment programmes as well.

Her passion for child education and early literacy stemmed for her first experience with her own children. They were exposed to lots of stimulating activities and reading at a young age. All these were done in a fun and non-pressuring manner and the results turned out rather amazing.

This spurred her on to do more research into teaching young children to read at an early age and she firmly believes that children can and should be taught to read and that it can be done in a fun and non-pressuring manner.
