Parents' Reviews

Ly Chanvattana CPS Why Parents are Raving about this Chinese Preschool

First of all, I would like to say thank you to MindChamps Chinese PreSchool @ Thomson for the past 3 years that our children have spent there.

When we moved to Singapore for our children’s education, we put them in a kindergarten near our home, but after 6 months, we didn’t notice any improvement and were worried. So we looked for a new school for them as my twin daughters were going to Primary 1 in 6 months at that time.

We visited many kindergartens, including this MindChamps centre. We were impressed with the space and the dedication of the team of teachers, but what interested us most was the strong curriculum for Chinese, which was about 70-80% of the learning.

After 3 years, my daughters are now in Primary 3 and my son is in K2 and moving to Primary 1 next year. They have improved a lot, their reading and writing in English is great, and they can speak and write Chinese (even though we are not native Chinese speakers).

We are glad we chose MindChamps Chinese PreSchool @ Thomson, thank you!

Thomson Testimonial Chengxin

Over the past 2 years, ChengXin has been extremely fortunate to have had excellent teachers who willingly go the extra mile to reach out and engage each and every student in class at MindChamps Chinese PreSchool @ Thomson.

We are especially impressed by the effort and thought the teachers put into preparing and teaching each lesson during the Circuit Breaker period. During those 2 months when lessons were conducted online, the teachers painstakingly curated content suitable for the students to follow independently so that their learning would not be disrupted even when the students were not physically in class. Parents would even not have to sit beside their child to guide them through each lesson!

To engage a class of energetic 5-year-olds virtually is no easy feat; what more for 2 months. We are deeply grateful to 马丽娟老师, Ms Aisyah Saharudin and Ms Ellie Moon for their time, effort, love and sense of responsibility towards teaching the students. Thank you!

The art exhibition organised by the school last December was also highly commendable. To prepare for this art exhibition, the teachers skilfully guided each child to think about what they would like to create, allowing each child to express their unique, creative side. We parents saw beautiful art pieces oozing with pure, original ideas of the 3- to 6-year-olds. What a pleasure and joy to listen to the description of these young artists’ thought processes in creating their artwork and admire their final masterpieces.

Thank you MindChamps for giving ChengXin a wonderful preschool experience!

Thomson Testimonial Chloe and Lucas Aw

When my wife and I were looking for a preschool for our daughter, we specifically wanted to look for a Chinese preschool to build a stronger foundation for her Chinese and an appreciation for Chinese culture. We found the then newly established Thomson branch of MindChamps Chinese Preschool to be ideal for our daughter.

The facilities were new and we were suitably impressed with the expanse of the preschool. We also liked the surrounding greenery and elevated location of the SLF Complex where the school is located.

Her younger brother is also enrolled in the same preschool. We like the fact that both our children enjoy going to the school and are always excited to tell us about what they learn for the day.

My first visit to MindChamps left me totally convinced and assured that I have found what I’ve been looking for – a welcoming atmosphere, great curriculum and super caring, patient and observant teachers. And to me, that is what mattered most. Also, the teachers and even the principal showed so much sincerity in welcoming me and my two children. That was the sight which made me so certain and assured that MindChamps provides the ideal environment which inspired curiosity and promotes positive learning.

Within a short period of time after Kedric was enrolled in MindChamps Chinese PreSchool, I observed that he became much more interested in learning. He has developed the ability to recognize and read English words and Chinese characters based on the techniques he learnt in pre-school. Moreover, he started to speak more Mandarin. The positive changes that I witnessed in Kedric gives us the confident that MindChamps Chinese PreSchool will help him prepare well for Primary 1 What’s more, there are programmes (e.g. MindChamps Reading & Writing Programme) that are part of the MindChamps Chinese PreSchool curriculum which are conducted in English. This will help prepare my son to cope with the bilingual requirement of Primary School.

I enrolled my daughter, Siang Ying, in MindChamps Chinese PreSchool to strengthen her foundation in the Chinese language. After two months, she’s now more fluent in her spoken Mandarin and more confident in expressing her feelings and thoughts. As MindChamps Chinese PreSchool also teacher her Math (Numeracy Strategies) and English (MindChamps Reading & Writing) as part of their curriculum, I am confident that she will be ready, both academically and mentally, when she enters primary school.

The principal and teachers never fail to update us daily on Hsuan En’s progress in school, and believe in working in tandem with parents to bring out the best in her. They are always there whenever we need any clarifications or reassurance. Hsuan En is also very fond of her teachers and would come home telling us about her day in school. I know that she is in good care when I leave her in school.
Thank you MindChamps Chinese PreSchool for providing such a conducive environment for the Champs and for understanding what parents need.

Javier has exhibited marked improvement in his command for the Chnese language after enrolling into MindChamps Chinese PreSchool! He’s been speaking mandarin with me and could recognize his A BCs and 123; he achieved full score in his Chinese spelling; he could also write his name in both English and Chinese. What a difference a few months made! am so glad I took the plunge and made the decision to change his preschool. I’m also proud to say that Javier now looks forward to go to school and even requested to be in school early. Thank you MindChamps Chinese Preschool!

Within a month of joining MindChamps Chinese Preschool, we started seeing a vast improvement in Hanna’s social skills and confidence. We will like to thank all the teachers at MindChamps for taking such good care of her and building that special bond with her.

The preschool is always bright, clean and inviting. The staff (led by the Centre Director and Principal) are pleasant, patient and helpful in attending to every child and understanding the different needs of every parent. The children are always laughing, participative and having fun when they are engaged in activities. A big plus (to us) is the well-spaced and enclosed gym area for the children to do their daily routine exercises. From our observation, the preschool also offers healthy and well-balanced meals and constantly inculcate the values of nutrition to the children.

Mika joined MindChamps Chinese Preschool when we relocated from overseas. She was studying in an international school prior to coming back to Singapore. The transition was not easy for Mika until we found MindChamps! Mika’s health began to improve tremendously since joining MindChamps Chinese PreSchool, much to our relief. She also mentioned to us that the teaching in MindChamps is very interesting and told us that the teachers always talk to her nicely even when she made mistakes. It’s such great joy seeing her enjoying going to school again!

We moved to Singapore mainly for Chloe’s education, as we wanted her to learn Chinese. Thus, we were very pleased to see how she has progressed from having zero knowledge in the language to being able to speak simple Chinese, understanding most of our everyday conversation at home and being able to read simple Chinese words without hanyu pinyin.

Chloe joined MindChamps Chinese PreSchool @ Tampines Central midway through K1, and within a short period of time, we have seen improvements in her English and Chinese reading skills. This has been the greatest satisfaction for us as parents, as we get to see the value of enrolling Chloe into MindChamps.

Thanks to the welcoming and patient staff at MindChamps Chinese Preschool @ Tampines Central, Jie Ying was able to adapt to the school’s routine in a very short span of time. Not only does he look forward to going to school the next day, he comes home chirpy and happily sings the songs that were taught in school.

From a parent’s perspective, I appreciate the attention paid by the teachers towards my child and the school’s effort in addressing my concerns by updating every little milestone and progress made. l am also amazed at how well the staff know the names of all the little Champs – they never fail to greet the Champs during drop off and pick up. Kudos to all staff!

Ruoxian had gone through so many positive changes since she started PG last year and I know that a lot of it was due to the loving guidance and encouragement from her teachers. Apart from being more confident and enthusiastic, I can also see great improvement in her motor and social skills and independence, and how much she loves reading. I was also very surprised to see her perform so well without stage fright during the year end concert.Thank you Ms Joyce for giving me a lot of encouragement, as well as to console and comfort Ruoxian when she fell sick constantly during her initial stage of joining the school. I also appreciate the fact that the school and team of teachers are working very hard to upkeep the hygiene standards for the well-being of all Champs.

As it was Faith’s first time attending full-day childcare, she took some time to adjust to the new environment, dealing with separation from her family and meeting new friends. Through it all, we are very grateful for the support, patience, understanding and love extended to Faith during this time
We would like to thank Faith’s teachers and the principal for their dedication, enthusiasm and care for Faith during the adjustment period. We got to experience firsthand the personal touch the MindChamps way and we are happy with our decision to join the MindChamps family.
