Economics (HL)
Having economic tuition with Sean helped to better understand the concepts in textbook. Sean was always very patient and helpful, whenever I had questions, he always taught me many useful skills on doing economic paper. After every exam, Sean will go through my mistake and summarise the relevant points for me to take note of. During the revision period, Sean helped me to practice many essays which helped me to improve my writing skills. With the help of tuition and practice, I was able to get grade 7 for my finals.

Chemistry (HL)
After repeatedly failing Chemistry, I decided to join Quintessential. With only 5 months left to the IB examinations, Michael managed to guide me and help me achieve a grade 7 in Chemistry. Micheal dissected questions and helped to explain everything in detail. He helped identify my problems at the root and taught me how to overcome it which is why I went from getting a grade 3 to a grade 7 in just a mere 5 months. Thank You!

Economics (HL)
Going for economics tuition helped me revise everything that I learnt in school, which was very important for me as I was struggling to find time to do so. I was also able to receive more resources to study as Sean provided very concise notes. The papers we went through very consistently further helped me understand answers I should be providing for my exams. As a result of my tuition, I was able to achieve a grade of 7 for my final IB examination.
ACS (International)
Mathematics (HL)
QE has been very helpful in bringing out the best in me for Mathematics! In fact, I was always very lost in lessons, until I joined the class. Jayden was able to help us understand the requirements and key points of each question and component, by breaking down and approaching them methodically. Apart from letting me have a greater grasp of the subject, it boosted my confidence during the exam, keeping me calm and composed!
ACS Independent
Economics (HL)
Sean is a dedicated teacher who is willing to spend time outside lessons to have consultations with students. His lessons are engaging and useful as I’ve learnt many skills that are not taught in school. Sean ensures we grasp the skills and concepts taught by giving practices and feedback in class, and also encourages us with food.
School Of The Arts
Langlit (HL)
I joined Quintessential as I was having problems writing well which was highly frustrating for me. After a few sessions I was able to write anwsers with more accuracy, using proper techniques, improving along the way and therefore increasing my confidence. I learnt and understood much more than I did before. My marks in my Langlit boosted in school. Thanks to Dawn I was able to achieve a 7 in my IB exams, which I didn’t think was possible before I joined.
