Mr Yiu is a very nice person and never puts any pressure on me. I am afraid of speaking English, but he encourages me, even if I speak wrongly, he will not say anything to me, instead, he will laugh and tell me how to express myself better. As time goes by, I dare to speak more, thanks to the confidence she has given me!.

The teacher is really patient. Sometimes I have to ask the same question several times, and I am afraid that he will think that I am annoying. However, he never got tired of me. Instead, he would explain in a different way, or find some simple examples, and talk until I understand. He is also willing to come to Yau Tong.It's really good.

Grammar has always been a weak point for Ah Chai since he was promoted to secondary school, Miss Lau teaches Grammar in a systematic way, she will break down the complicated rules and explain them one by one, together with the exercises, it is much easier for Ah Chai to understand. She is very patient and doesn't mind if Ah Chai asks basic questions, and Ah Chai is not as resistant to Grammar as he used to be. I am glad to find him in Yau Tong..

Multilingualism offers cognitive benefits and fosters cross-cultural understanding, though linguistic diversity faces threats from dominant languages.

Testimonials
I learnt a lot of skills from Mr Lau which are not taught in school, and they are really useful for me when I am doing the paper, which is really important for me as a student in Yau Tong. She can answer my questions immediately in class, so I can learn by example and consolidate my English foundation. Thank you, Mr Lau!
I am a graduate of the Chinese University of Hong Kong's Department of English. I am currently working as a teacher in Band 1 Secondary School and have over 10 years of private tutoring experience, having obtained a 5* in the English subject in the Diploma of Arts Examination and an 8 in the IELTS.
I am particularly good at helping middle-of-the-road students to break through bottlenecks.
Whether you are a student from Yau Tong or other districts, I strongly believe that mastering the method is the key.
I will mark the essays carefully before each lesson and provide immediate and specific feedback, rather than deferring to the next lesson, so that students can make corrections and improvements immediately.
For example, we trained a student for 14 consecutive days and helped her IELTS essay score jump from 6.5 to 8 to meet the requirements for further studies.
As for DSE students, I put special emphasis on improving the performance in Paper 3 (Listening and General Skills), which is often the decisive point to raise the overall grade.
Apart from examination skills, I also emphasise on the development of students' English language skills and self-confidence.
I will train students to participate in English speech, personal speech and debate competitions, which will not only be useful but will also make their university interview resumes stand out.
For Yau Tong students with a weak foundation, I will immediately identify the core of the problem, give on-the-spot tests to address the difficulties, and provide the most relevant teaching materials and exercises according to the students' level, to ensure that they can keep up with and learn from the lessons.
I am happy to provide clear bilingual or full English notes, and students are always welcome to ask for help after class.
Teaching is not only my profession, but also my passion.
I would like to share my experience of learning English with the students to help them understand the requirements of the exams, and to calmly handle the tests and public exams, with the ultimate goal of enabling them to write and use English fluently and confidently in the future.
If any Yau Tong parents or students are interested, please feel free to contact me through the agency to arrange a time for us to meet and learn English together!
Testimonials
I had a one-minute trial lesson and my goal was to improve my IELTS Speaking in a short period of time, but Mr Chau was kind enough to understand my learning needs and immediately showed me the teaching arrangements for the rest of the lesson. In a short period of time, she quickly practised all three parts of speaking with me, and if there were any areas that I did not do well, she would immediately remind me and give me specific suggestions..

Our Feedback
Let's hear from our customer Nicole, 2022 IGCSE candidate
彭** Sir 同 朱** Miss 兩位區內專業導師亦補充過:好多家長以為HKDSE 嘅試題會同 textbook 完全 align,其實考評局每年都會加入新題型。例如近年加入嘅 cross-curricular 題目,會要求學生用 英文 嘅概念解釋現實問題(譬如 油塘附近商業區嘅變化)。呢類題目齋背冇用,必須要 critical thinking。一個有經驗嘅專業導師會帶住學生做 case discussion,呢樣係大班教學完全做唔到嘅。

GETUTOR 導師防伏貼士(5 個重點)
第一,唔好淨係操 MC。考評局近幾年特登喺長題目同 case study 動手腳,平均失分率去到 39%(基於 GETUTOR 學生 mock 測驗 sample)。好多同學 MC 有 80% 正確率,但成張卷得 Level 3,原因就係長題目拎唔到分。專業導師楊** Sir 強調「concept 唔通就操幾多卷都冇用」。
第二,千祈唔好死背定義。好似 Topic sentence 呢類概念,考評局成日用 real-life scenario 包裝,你背字典式定義一落筆就答錯 context。彭** Sir 建議每一個 key term 都要自己想一個生活例子,例如用「油塘地鐵站早上繁忙時間搵唔到位坐」呢類日常情境去理解,呢樣係考評局想睇嘅 application skill。
第三,Cohesive devices 嘅應用先係陷阱。記住一點,呢類 concept 喺 HKDSE Paper 1 / Paper 2 嘅長題目係常客,幾乎每兩年就會考一次變奏版。朱** Miss 觀察到好多油塘學生 Paper 1 攞 80%,但 Paper 2 得 50%,原因就係長題目嘅 application 訓練不足。
第四,唔好溝亂相似概念。Inference 題永遠捉錯重點 係 油塘學生最常犯嘅錯誤之一。考評局好鍾意喺 MC 出陷阱題,distractor 會引你撞錯,跌坑率超過三成。許** Miss 建議學生每週做 30 條 MC 操呢類 distractor 題型,建立 quick reaction。
第五,唔好做純 timed practice。好多家長以為操卷愈多愈好,但其實要分階段:頭 4 週只操單 chapter;第 5-10 週操混合 chapter;第 11 週後先全卷 timed。司** Sir 強調「太早操 full paper,仲未掌握基本概念就上戰場,結果每張卷都得 Level 2-3,自信心打擊嚴重」。
根據 GETUTOR 2024-2026 配對紀錄,最多人卡 Paper 1 Reading — Vocabulary in context(佔查詢 56%),其次係 Paper 4 Speaking — Individual Response 同 Paper 4 Speaking — Group Discussion。呢幾個 chapter 都係 concept heavy,死背冇用,必須要有導師逐步拆。長題目嘅失分率喺油塘區大約 39%,亦係要重點補嘅地方。彭** Sir 同 朱** Miss 兩位專業導師都會喺第一堂做 diagnostic test 鎖定學生嘅 weak chapter。
私補同大班最大分別係咩?
大班講速度,私補講 feedback。如果你係中等水平想升 Level 5,私補導師可以即時睇你份答卷,逐題指出邊度唔 match marking scheme,大班導師根本做唔到呢啲。油塘區嘅試堂繼續率達 87%,反映多數家長試完之後都覺得私補有效。另一個分別係 pace — 大班一定要 follow schedule,私補可以針對學生 weak 嗰幾個 chapter 多加堂數。
