While he might have founded The Annexe Project, Alvin is still heavily invested in personally teaching many of the centre’s students. It is fair to say his popularity can be attributed to a vibrant personality flowing with a surprising youthfulness, allowing him to easily crack a joke to slice through any tedium during lessons. His students feel classes are never too large, as he cultivates a close relationship with each of them. Spending time individually with Alvin after class, late into the night, to clarify doubts and clearly examine Mathematic problems, is not an opportunity any of them would find rare in the slightest sense.虽然Alvin是A计划补习中心的创始人，他仍然花很多的精力投入在亲自培训学生上面。不失偏颇的说，他之所以如此声名远扬，是因为他十分充满活力和洋溢着的青春的性格，让他可以使枯燥的课程充满欢声笑语。他的学生永远不会觉得班级太大而得不到应有的关注，他会关心学生的生活，对每位学生都很亲切。没有任何一位学生会觉得Alvin在课后单独为他辅导数学学习上的难点，或者倾听学生的烦恼一直到很晚是一件让人惊讶的事，因为他就是如此为学生们奉献着。

Testimonials From Our Students

Ever since being under Alvin’s tutelage, I found myself steadily improving and becoming more confident in my ability to do consistently for the subject. Alvin always makes sure we are able to grasp each new topic thoroughly, and personally compiles case studies so that we are exposed to common question types. His lessons are engaging and concise, and the weekly tests as well as topical revisions leading up to exams are especially helpful. I am immensely grateful for his support and guidance that helped me to clinch an A for the H2 Math paper. Thank you so much Alvin!

Although it was a last-minute decision to take up English tuition with Michelle, she never gave up on me and had complete faith in me! I think this new-found confidence in me was the last ingredient that completed the dish and eventually I scored an A2 for my N-levels English. I would have never achieved this feat within a short span of 2 months if I hadn’t agreed to this crash course with Michelle, and for this, I’m forever grateful to her. Thank you!


Tristan Loo
Ngee Ann Secondary School

I am so thankful to have found Alvin as my Math tutor and The Annexe Project as a trustworthy tuition centre that delivers quality teaching. I can count on Alvin who is always ready to provide free consultations after tuition class to clear my doubts in certain concepts, I pressed on and jumped from a “S” to an “A” for the A levels in just 6 months! Always have faith in Alvin and diligently practise doing sums on your own every day and I promise you that your efforts will not fail you!

I am grateful for all the help The Annexe Project has given me. The friendly tutors at The Annexe Project have always patiently guided me to have a better grasp of the subjects by teaching me the fundamentals and building a solid foundation. This gave me a sense of comfort that I was not facing this difficult and arduous journey alone. Eventually, my hard work and Alvin’s guidance led me to an A for H2 Mathematics for A Levels.
Low Peng Heng
Dunman High School

I am proud to say that I achieved an ‘A’ grade for my A Levels and I could not have done it without Alvin’s help throughout these past 2 years. I am really thankful to Alvin for making Mathematics such an easy subject to do and learn in my JC years.
Jonan Yap Woon Kiat
Catholic Junior College

H2 Mathematics was definitely tougher than O Levels Mathematics and I did struggle in the initial few months of JC 1. Thankfully with the help of Alvin’s tutorial classes and his notes and materials given to me , it definitely made a huge impact on my grades as I saw improvements throughout the year. After following Alvin’s lesson plan diligently and with the constant support and consultations that I got from him, it allowed me to eventually clinch that much coveted ‘A’ in H2 Mathematics for A-Levels.

Alvin’s willingness to go far and beyond for his students can be seen through the endless consultations he provides, even if it means staying beyond his working hours. I vividly remember the number of times I met him after lessons for consultations, sometimes even late at night, and the numerous questions that I put in front of him, which he patiently solved them without any hesitation or complain. His support and words of encouragement motivated me to push beyond my limits.

Upon attending Alvin’s lessons, I realised how clear and detailed his explanations of the concepts and steps in solving the problem sums were, that I finally caught a glimpse of hope for the subject. Alvin also encouraged me to join The Astro programme for A-Math where I got to do more papers that were timed to further build my momentum and work on my time management. As I slowly see my results for the Astro papers improve, my confidence also started to soar!
Zoey Lee
Geylang Methodist Secondary School

Alvin was extremely motivating as he explained Math problems with such clarity that I fully understood even the most challenging Math solutions. The notes he produced were of an excellent standard, and often featured extra practices covering a wide spectrum of different problem sums of varying levels of difficulty. He extends genuine care to all his students and gives us helpful advice to better ourselves.
Jordan Goh Si Zhe

Alvin isn’t a tutor who simply goes through the Math textbook during class. He emphasises on the importance of fundamental learning as understanding key concepts in Math is crucial. If I am unable to understand a concept, he continues simplifying it for me until I fully grasp it. His greatest strength is that he never leaves his students’ side. I have seen him sacrifice his meals, off-days and even sleep so he could assist me with the complications I faced while solving Math sums.
Nicholas Koh
Temasek Junior College

Alvin’s unique and engaging method of teaching us let me enjoy Math in a way I never thought was possible. Without Alvin’s tutelage, I would not have gotten an A for H2 Math that I worked so hard for! Annexe taught me how to master Math and even gave me new friends and memories that I will remember dearly for the rest of my life. Thank you Alvin and The Annexe Project for giving me a second home to learn and grow.

Alvin is an outstanding teacher who goes beyond his job of teaching, and bonds with his students by creating memorable connections with us. He also makes his lessons interesting and easy-to-understand by sharing great study tips and resourceful shortcuts.The Annexe Project has helped me tremendously during my school days, and I’m certain that I definitely wouldn’t have achieved my As if it were not for Alvin’s constant help and guidance.
Zhao Xu Ze
Nanyang Junior College

Alvin’s effective tutorage brushed up my measly mathematical knowledge and pushed me to pursue excellence in my academics. The meagre C in my Integrated Programme EOY results leaped to an A for my A-levels. I truly believe that without Alvin’s help, I would not have been able to achieve my As. My 2 years in Annexe Project were truly transformative for my grades and my attitude towards learning. If you’re looking for a place to learn, The Annexe Project’s your home.
Ethan Lim Yee Tern

Under the ASTRO programme, we completed weekly exam papers under timed conditions. This was very useful leading up to the A-levels as it gave me the practice and momentum I needed for a 3-hour Math paper. With Alvin’s help and constant motivation, I improved tremendously and managed to jump 4 grades within 9 months for A-levels! I am extremely thankful to Alvin and appreciate his dedication to help his students improve and excel.
Won Jer Maine
Serangoon Junior College

Alvin was always there for me whenever I needed help with tough Math sums. He gave me constant guidance and even went the extra mile to schedule consultations with me. Alvin’s expertise on the subject allowed me to learn something new every lesson! Thanks to Alvin’s constant encouragement and his clarity in teaching style, I’ve maintained a strong A throughout my entire Secondary 4 journey which is something I would have never have dreamed of.
Sai Shnyenn
Chung Cheng High School (Main)

He was really special. His explanation of math problems was done with wonderful clarity, as each and every one of us could understand his solutions effortlessly. He didn’t just present the answers in a slipshod manner with poorly drawn diagrams like some other teachers do, but instead always took the effort to draw his diagrams with utmost recision, showing how serious he took his work. His professionalism is commendable.
Loy Sing Qiang
Meridian Junior College

I remember fondly the times when Alvin would stay back beyond his working hours just to help us to understand the concepts and to ensure that we were able to fully grasp them. His constant encouragements and unwavering belief in me also renewed a hope in me for the subject and a confidence not from my own abilities in math, but from a faith in their teaching and guidance.

Alvin is a role model in terms of both character and achievements. Alvin has cultivated mental strength in me to face challenges and adversities, as well as to overcome my setbacks. He has also made work look like play – he made me enjoy what I was doing for two years in Junior College, despite my initial inhibitions. Alvin has always challenged me to keep doing better in Math.
