Eric Lim
Andrew Pereira, My GP teacher a decade ago. He's really good. Basically why I could be a GP relief teacher even though I was going to major in Bio. For him it's not just about English, grammar and subject-verb agreement, but also about the strategies of formulating logical arguments and evaluating sources.

Koh Kaiting
He is very knowledgeable and able to provide insights in a simple manner such that it is easier to understand. He also provides good and comprehensive materials which makes learning and understanding easier and more enjoyable.

Jessica Ling
Mr Pereira is very approachable. His lessons are full of exciting and engaging discussions. I like that in every lesson, he explores the crux of the matter with each different topic. I've also learnt great writing tips. Thank you Mr Pereira.
