In fast-paced Singapore, children and parents alike often find themselves sucked into the bustle of life. After keeping up with the demands of school, tackling work and managing the home, family members have little time left for one another.
These precious moments should be spent bonding over fun activities, but many a time, parents end up nagging at the kids to finish their homework or learn their ting xie (spelling) instead.
Rather than let the parent-child relationship turn sour, it may be worthwhile to consider getting outside help.
Bespoke Learning Centre at Wisteria Mall provides after school care for children. With dedicated teachers to guide kids on their homework and supervise their revision, parents can have peace of mind knowing that their little ones are getting the help and attention they need daily.

Just a few units away, EduFirst Learning Centre offers tuition on a wide range of subjects for K1 to Secondary 4 students. The centre has gained the trust of many parents over the years and won multiple awards.
Let’s take a closer look at how these centres create the ideal environment to nurture children towards their full potential.
Bespoke Learning Centre – After School Care with a Holistic Programme
A student care centre that believes in meeting the individual needs of the children under its wing, Bespoke Learning Centre has won parents over with its holistic after school care programme and thoughtful services.
Free Pick-up Service to Ensure Children’s Safety
Knowing how tricky transport arrangements can be for parents, the centre offers a pick-up service for students from three primary schools in the vicinity – Northland, Naval Base and Peiying – at no extra cost.
While this service is not available for students from other schools, Bespoke’s teachers ensure safety by waiting at the school bus drop-off point to walk the students to the centre.
Specialised Enrichment to Help Young Children Love Math
To stretch their academic abilities, students can opt for tuition or enrichment at the centre. A beneficial class for young children is MPM Math, a renowned programme from Taiwan that seeks to instil a love for the subject through activity-based learning.
Using colourful booklets and fun teaching tools, such as small puzzles and cute toys, MPM Math lessons are lively and exploratory. They fortify cognitive skills while encouraging out-of-the-box thinking, giving little ones a good head start.
A Well-balanced Routine for Meaningful Engagement
When it comes to motivating children, all work and no play is not the way. In addition to academic learning, Bespoke incorporates playtime into its daily schedule as well.
During the holidays, the centre organises excursions and plans special activities, so students can be meaningfully engaged and learn through play.
This balanced approach to structure and routine has produced happy learners who have not only shown improvements in their school results, but also become more independent and responsible.
EduFirst Learning Centre – Customised Learning in a Small Group Setting
EduFirst Learning Centre was set up in 2010 to provide tuition with a difference to meet the academic needs of children. It boasts a strong track record, having been featured on various news media and voted by parents as a top enrichment provider on multiple occasions.
Small Class Size for the Win
EduFirst believes in keeping class sizes small – not exceeding six students – to ensure that everyone can benefit from personalised attention from the teacher. The close-knit relationship in such a small group setting helps to reduce the power distance, which encourages students to speak up and ask questions.
This strategy has proven effective, as evident in the results of students, some of whom have made dramatic improvements after joining EduFirst.
A Customised Approach to Teaching
Instead of one-size-fits-all lessons, EduFirst’s teachers customise their teaching methods and materials according to the needs of different students. In this way, each child can have an optimised learning experience while benefitting from the interactive nature of a group class.
Free Consultation on School Homework
What happens when children encounter problems with their homework from school? They can ask their EduFirst teachers for help, even on days when they do not have tuition! All they need to do is to arrange for a consultation at the centre – free of charge.
With such dedication from the teachers, students are motivated to do their best in their studies.
