My son has encountered great difficulty in math especially in SPM where he found the problem-solving sums complicated and tedious, causing him to lose confidence. Math is a major subject and with his overall score, it has caused much anxiety especially he was undergoing SPM. There are lots of tutors available for math but getting the best one for your kid is still a tricky process. We are glad that Cikgu Saw has the expertise in the subject area and impressive credentials in the subject which has effectively given my son a much needed boost in his grades. Cikgu Saw's familiarity in the subject is important with the ability to relate to my son is just as critical as well. Math is very complex and your child needs someone who can explain the subject to the child in a way that he deems simple, fun and easy to understand.

Thank you Cikgu Saw for your constant encouragement and patience teaching in assisting my son obtaining an A in Math for his SPM!

Throughout my life I have been taught by a number of teachers in school and in tuition centre, all of whom have had some form of influence on me whether it be positive or negative. However, through this intellectual journey I have discovered many qualities that have distinguished my great teachers from the rest, he is no other than Cikgu Saw from SayPBS.

Cikgu Saw has certain qualities that distinguish him from the other teachers. He shows qualities such as patience, kindness, flexibility, resourcefulness, tolerance and open-mindedness. He also has a good sense of humour and is honest, humble, enthusiastic and most importantly enjoys teaching.

Cikgu Saw always smiles at his pupils and dedicates himself to the job. One special quality that I have most often found in Cikgu Saw is that he is able to be my friend. I do not know anyone better to trust and gain knowledge from than a friend. A friend is often a person that you remember for the rest of your life.

However, I also believe that there must remain a balance between representing an authority or a friend so that the student shows respect.

At one point during a year I remember having a very difficult time dealing with the death of my grandpa and he was able to comfort me and talk to me at a time when I needed it most. Whenever I just needed to talk to him he made himself available and that made me feel like he really cared about me and that my feelings mattered to him. For me, Cikgu Saw is someone who teaches not only with his mind but also with his heart. He is a person who truly cares about his pupils and their interests, wishes and feelings and is also someone that a student can confide in times of sadness or of joy.

I am proud to say that I am a student of Cikgu Saw and he has made me a successful adult today thanks to his excellent teaching and guidance and I would recommend his tutorial classes to anyone who wants a great teacher.

Cikgu Saw is my son tuition teacher and he is very popular among students. He teaches my son since standard 2. Now my son is already studying in the university and because of him my son also obtain scholarship from Monash university. He is like a friend and guide to the students. He maintains discipline in the class and he is also very polite.

He is strict with those who break discipline. Everyone in his tuition centre loves and respects him because he does his duty honestly. He takes pains to explain the lessons and gives my son moral lessons. He teaches my son by using games sometimes and try to guides my son in every possible way to be a better student. He leads a simple life and he is a man of noble ideals.

He advises my son in every moment of difficulty. He follows the principles of truth, non-violence and courtesy. He is a master of his subject. He can teach English, Bahasa Malaysia, Maths and Science very well. My son loves his lesson. My son always says he teaches Physics and Chemistry well better than the school. He taught my son very well until my son obtains 8A in SPM in 2011. His English pronunciation is very impressive and he teaches grammar very well. I like him very much. I would strongly recommend him to any parents who wants good tuition. We appreciate you Cikgu Saw.

It has been years since I graduated from high school and the best tuition I ever had was with Cikgu Saw. Cikgu Saw is a great teacher because he is prepared and organized. He is always in his classrooms early and ready to teach. He present his lessons in a clear and structured way. His classrooms are organized in such a way as to minimize distractions.

Cikgu Saw always engage students and get them to look at issues in a variety of ways. Cikgu Saw uses facts as a starting point, not an end point; he ask "why" questions, look at all sides and encourage students to predict what will happen next. He ask questions frequently to make sure students are following along. He try to engage the whole class, and he don't allow a few students to dominate the class. He keep students motivated with varied, lively approaches.

Cikgu Saw forms strong relationships with their students and show that he care about them as people. Cikgu Saw is warm, accessible, enthusiastic and caring. He is a masters of his subject matter because he is a Cambridge English teacher graduated from University of Cambridge. He exhibits expertise in the subjects he is teaching and spend time continuing to gain new knowledge in his field. He present material in an enthusiastic manner and instill a hunger in his students to learn more on their own.

Cikgu Saw is indeed my teacher, a great teacher. Thank you Cikgu Saw because you changed me for the better.

I had accidentally found this website and I have so many things to say that I don't know where to start! I am a VERY protective mom who was anxious and nervous about sending my child to tuition classes. However, Pusat Bimbingan Saw won me over very quickly and allayed all my fears! This school is the perfect blend of academics, culture appreciation, and socialization. They foster independence, creativity, and a genuine pride in learning in all of their students. The entire staff is dedicated to guiding each child in discovering and maximizing their strengths while encouraging them to tackle new tasks and learning experiences they may not be familiar with. The principal of the school also provides a very nurturing environment which I was very drawn to and one I had not observed with other schools when I was choosing a school for my daughter (and believe me, I looked!).

I see the progress my daughter has made over the years she has been there and my husband and I are amazed! She has become a confident, independent, and respectful little lady who loves to learn.

As for tuition, as a previous reviewer mentioned, it is a little above average quality. However, if you compare the other tuitions, they offer so much more (even beyond what's in print)! This school has won UNSW ICAS Gold Medalist School two years in a row and it is well-deserved!!! You can't put a price on education and giving your children the best chance at a great start! I recommend this school with no reservations!

My children has come top of the class in a school and came top overall out of the maths, reading and science tests, followed by English and Bahasa Malaysia.
My children started leaning at Pusat Bimbingan Saw at 8 years old and stay at the continue until they are 17. I like Pusat Bimbingan Saw because they create their own timetable from a choice of options and compulsory subjects and also has many pupils who did well - in contrast with other tuition centre which has one of the highest failing rates.
