"Knowing that my 12 year old child needs help with his dyslexic issues, I found Wei Teng's contact from the DAS's RETA website. Amongst all the therapists in the list, I was particularly drawn to Wei Teng's profile. Her many years of experience in DAS working with children of different needs, coupled with her experience in Northlight School gave me the confidence that I will be putting my child's learning in the right hands.

My first consultation with Wei Teng put my mind and heart at ease. Wei Teng's knowledge in children with special needs are second to none. I am also very impressed with her in-depth planning of the curriculum to meet my child's needs in mainstream school. It is tailored specifically to meet the issues my child has. At the same time she is also open to suggestions from parents. This open communication makes this journey a less stressful one.

Most importantly, my child's positive feedback on his weekly lessons with Wei Teng and my child's progress could be seen in just a couple of sessions. My child used to pick up a book , read a few pages then put aside for good. But recently he has managed to finish reading TWO story books on his own!

Thank you Wei Teng for your patience and guidance. I am sure he will make you proud!"

Testimonials

From Mrs Ong, Mother of K (Primary 6)

"When we learned that our son has dyslexia and dysgraphia, we consulted various specialised firms and interviewed a dozen of senior specialised teachers. We selected Wei Teng because she came across as highly experienced and competent, but also as very jovial and motivational, which we believed would be important to keep our son motivated too.

After 6 months of regular sessions, we see real progress with our son’s ability and confidence to spell correctly and to write increasingly long texts. More importantly, our son who typically resists tuitions of all sorts, actually enjoys the sessions with Wei Teng and never complains about attending them. We definitely look forward to continue working with Wei Teng to help our son progress."

From Mr P, Father of A (Grade 4)

Teacher Wei Teng has been working with our son since shortly after he was diagnosed with dyslexia and dysgraphia. The diagnosis was a marker for him (and us), but having Teacher Wei Teng become his tutor and guide has been a significant turning point.

The way Teacher Wei Teng engages the student as an individual means she tailors her approach in a way that truly makes a positive impact. Our son is almost a different child - it’s as if he has been given permission to enjoy learning and his anxiety around the classroom environment has started to fall away. He has always loved stories and storytelling, and it is a joy to see him gain the tools to allow him to express himself.

We also appreciate that Teacher Wei Teng is willing to communicate with our son’s in-school learning support to ensure cohesion in the approaches used.
