TestimonialsKelly Katrina Lau Hui Min

Throughout the 12 months of the Foundation programme, I’ve met many wonderful lecturers and made many great friends. CPUS lecturers are very helpful and the comprehensive facilities on campus are also commendable. Being surrounded by CPUS students, known for their competitive streak, has also greatly motivated me to excel in my studies. I am ever so grateful to be part of the CPUS experience.

I like the warm and welcoming learning environment at CPUS where students and lecturers have a very close relationship. Our A Level lecturers are very approachable, caring and they are always there to assist us. I would not achieve excellent results and the Cambridge Top in the World award for both AS and A Level Mathematics if not for their guidance.

Yap Kwan KenChoosing TAR UC’s A Level programme is unquestionably the wisest decision I’ve ever made. I have benefitted from a very generous merit scholarship and also a world class pre-university education. Students also get to enjoy comprehensive facilities including a state-of-the-art cyber centre and a large library. I am also most indebted to my passionate A Level lecturers who wish for nothing but the best for their students.

Testimonials

Cambridge A Level has made a positive impact on me as I’ve grown so much academically and personally over the past 1.5 years. I have made many friends and our lecturers greatly nurtured us as individuals by not only imparting knowledge to us but by guiding us to become better persons. Each lecturer has his/her own teaching style, which makes our classes more interesting. If you seek for a balance between studies and a vibrant student life, TAR UC is definitely the right place for you!

TAR UC’s Cambridge A Level students are well-supported by a variety of facilities and services available on campus.

Our lecturers are always accessible, and they are always willing to go the extra mile to guide us. They will also push you beyond your limits, but your hard work will eventually pay off.
