“The ASC International offers a well-rounded education with many co-curricular and enrichment activities such as camps, sport events, arts and additional language support. These enabled me to explore my hobbies and career interests. My teachers were not only passionate about teaching but also dedicated to us. They made every effort to assist me whenever I approached them for help. The School also provided me with a comprehensive range of study materials to help me understand and master the syllabus. More importantly, my teachers gave me invaluable emotional and mental support. I did not panic or feel fearful during my Year 12 examinations as they had boosted my self-confidence with their guidance and study techniques. I faced my examinations with the absolute certainty that I would achieve my goal of going to university.”
