Mrs Loke, a working mum, was in despair over the penmanship skills of her son, ten-year old Nicholas Loke. Nicholas, currently a Primary 4 student at a neighbourhood school, had very messy handwriting. “His motor skills were not well developed,” said Mrs Loke. “His handwriting was so untidy that at times he himself couldn’t figure what he had scribbled!”
Fortunately, through word of mouth, Mrs Loke heard of BrainFit Studio and signed Nicholas up for the Smart Moves programme at BrainFit Studio last December. By the end of January, she noticed that Nicholas’s handwriting had improved significantly. For example, his writing of Chinese characters was much neater. “I thought he had brought home someone else’s worksheets!” recounted Mrs Loke, of her initial surprise at her son’s improvement. Nicholas enjoyed the Smart Moves programme, as it was active and fun.
Mrs Loke also signed Nicholas up for Smart Listening and Smart Vision, to help him polish his listening and attention skills. “Nicholas is making good progress academically, in English as well as Chinese,” she said, “I am so glad that these programmes have helped him!”
