Our education system has seen better times. Only a handful go on to admit that outright. If you slip early on, the system streams you to a particular group based on your current estimated potential. Often it is too early a time to segregate students. Given our tuition-driven capitalistic system, those with access to better schools and fifty dollar an hour tuition centres, often get an upperhand at the segregation game.
Founded by David Hoe, someone who didn't have that upperhand - Tembusu Mentors works closely with secondary school teenagers to help them manage not only their schoolwork, but also their ability to tackle a stressful school environment. Almost all the students in our program are chosen because they want to do well but don't have the right means to do so. Our mentors are student volunteers from Tembusu College who take time out on weekends to organize mentoring sessions.
