The
truth is that Motivation Courses work. Unfortunately, they work well
only for a select group of students - those who are smart but unmotivated.
When these unmotivated students go to a course and become motivated, they can
improve by leaps and bounds within a few months.
"I
jumped from C to A grade in 2 months -
thanks to your course!"
Does
this claim not sound familiar? Everyone craves an instant result. We belong
to the fast-food generation - everything must be instant (or near-instant). If
you believe paying a few thousand dollars will get you incredible results in 2
months, do your hard-earned money a favour by at least asking a few who have tried
(and probably failed).
Courses
which promise "quick results" usually have quick results in only one
area - the trainer's pockets.
The
Industry Truth Nobody Wants You To Know
In
every batch, there are always at least a few success cases. Perhaps 1% or 2%.
Gather a few testimonials from the few success stories, and people will
start believing it will work for them. After you have
paid a few thousand dollars and your child still failed, he or she will
be wondering what went wrong: "Am I stupid?"
The
bad news is that most of us need more than 1 or 2 months to improve by leaps and
bounds. The good news is that instead of the 1% or 2%
who achieved incredible results in 2 months at motivation courses, your child
has a much higher chance to succeed here.
Our
PROVEN study habits & exam techniques - together with consistent
effort and determination - can help your children achieve a significant improvement
in their grades.
Why
do some study courses cost
a few thousand dollars?
We
have been brought up to believe that expensive things are good and cheap
things are lousy. If it is priced cheaply, you will think it is a lousy course.
Besides, someone needs to pay for expensive hotel
training rooms, an army of paid assistants, costly newspaper advertisements and
an impressive setup. That "someone" is you - the parent.
Why
is this course different?
Motivation
and "brain scientifics" are important aspects. However, they are only
a subset of what it takes to achieve success at the academic front. Our
course is designed and taught by a former top student who have scored strings
of A1's at 'O' levels and straight 4 A's with distinctions in "Special"
papers at 'A' levels. In other words, by someone
who knows the game, and had beaten it (soundly).
Many
top trainers will tell you that one of the most effective ways to obtain success
in a particular area is to emulate the "what" and "how" of successful people.
If top students have repeatedly used these habits and secrets to succeed in the
classroom, why wouldn't you want your kids to learn them?
Do
you want a motivational speaker to motivate your children to do well (which may
last all of 2 to 3 weeks), or for them to learn habits and secrets that top
students actually use so that they can improve their grades - on a continual basis?
Increasing
"Motivation" or "Inspiration" is not
the optimal approach
to improving grades.
Why?
Mere
Motivation => inspired to do well => try hard (for a few weeks) => results
did not improve (for most students) => discouraged (motivation effect wears
off) => back to Square One!
You
can't blame your child for losing motivation if he or she fails to see better
results. Almost everyone would.
On
the contrary, our course principles are:
Practise
habits & secrets of top students => results improve => encouraged (and
more motivated!) => work harder at the proven system => even better results
=> more motivation!
You
get a virtuous cycle in place.
Some
courses try to instill MOTIVATION.
Others attempt to extract INSPIRATION.
The SARAH G. & ALLEN T. course simply brings REVELATION.

What
we also know is that when students learn our techniques, they are more motivated
to study because they now understand the secret steps to doing well in examinations.
Steps that are achievable by them. Steps that were only previously known to top
students.
When your child start practising
these habits and techniques, and "hop" on to the Virtuous Cycle,
he or she will see a transformation in his or her academic life and turnaround
in results.
Why
should you choose us?
If
you want your child to become a champion swimmer, do you want to send your child
to Ang Peng Siong Swim School or to someone who only learned swimming during National
Service?
Similarly,
if you want your child to become a Top Student, would it not make sense for him
or her to learn from Top Students who have succeeded at Top Schools?
OK,
what's the deal for this course?
Your
investment is only S$300-320 per student (depending on the number of students
you send) for a session of 8.5 hours.
For
less than the hourly cost of tuition, you can speed-track your child's
ability to learn well in class and excel in examinations.
This
will likely be the most information-packed study course your child will
ever attend.
Why
charge at a fraction
of what others charge?
We
are over-comers of the education system. Our goal is to help as many students
as possible achieve academic excellence. If we charge a high rate, only the well-off
can benefit. We use cosy, inexpensive training rooms
for our courses and seminars with minimal administrative staff. It will
not be a hotel location with free-flow buffet (you are that someone paying
for "it" anyway).
Our students
comes to us by word of mouth . People recommend us only when they find our course
useful. And we know we have to give you real substance
in order for "word of mouth" to work.
Think
about it: if we charge you $3,000 for the course, by the time enough people (let's
say 1,000) have signed up (and realised that this course is crap), we would have
made $3 million to pack off and retire on a Caribbeans island.
At
just over $30/hour course fee per student, we are in for the long haul. We won't
be jetting to the Caribbeans any time soon.
Your
Tuition Fees
versus
Our Course Fee
The
average student in Singapore spends between $200 to $1,000 on tuition monthly.
This translates to $2,400 to $12,000 a year, excluding schooling-related expenditure.
You
are spending up to $12,000 a year per child on tuition. Can you afford NOT
to send (yes, we have phrased this correctly) your child on acquiring
skills to maximise learning during tuition?
By investing in our course, your returns in your child's tuition will be maximised.
