Mrs Ho (Mummy of Xavier Ho – Infant/Toddler Class)

My boy started with Heguru when he was 6 months old. As a new mummy, I was pretty skeptical about right brain training at the start. But many of my friends have sent their children to Heguru for classes. I did my research and compared between big right brain schools like Heguru and Shichida method in Singapore. I love how Heguru does so much in the 50 minutes lesson and it lives up to the name of right brain training of being fast-paced! My boy has just turned two and he’s able to speak many words and also in short sentences. He is also able to read one syllabus word from flash cards. I could observe his memory is very good for a 2 year old! Really thankful that I decided to give it a go at Heguru and I will strongly recommend this program to other parents!

Parent of Kaelyn Liu (Primary)

Kaelyn started off as a reserved girl with low confidence in a group setting. However, after only a few months in Heguru, I could see her transformation. She would unreservedly share with me the activities done in class. Her eyes would light up, showing true love for the class. Her ability to work fast is also very apparent after working independently on her homework. She used to be very hard on herself when she is unable to achieve something but now, she strives to better herself and is motivated to find the correct answer. Her spatial awareness and visual recognition are also very strong after all the eye training and puzzles. Thank you Heguru, for transforming her and grooming her!

Tay KeWei (Mummy of Momo – Infant/Toddler Class)

I’ve been going to Heguru since Momo was 7 months old, and he’s now 2 years old! I enjoy watching him grow and become more attentive in class, and responding to the teacher as he should. I’ve been told he speaks a lot for his age, and he is exceptionally clear in verbalising his thoughts. I haven’t sent him to any preschool yet, and Heguru method is the only class he attends more regularly, so I’m sure it is positively contributing to his development!

The teachers in class are always sprightly, and their enthusiasm is impressive! I’m looking forward to continuing Momo’s journey with Heguru for as long as I can!

Mdm Hsu (Mummy of Chloe – Primary)

My child attended Shichida when she was 8 months old. We discovered Heguru when she turned one and continued with the Heguru journey after. Now she is 6 years old and in the Primary program. I like the varieties of activities Heguru has to offer every lesson. The fast paced lesson has helped my girl to stretch her concentration span which was a major concern to me! I am able to witness how Heguru method program has build a strong foundation for my girl and she’s able to handle Primary one syllabus with so much ease! Thank you Heguru City Square Mall for your team of very dedicated teachers!

Parent of Kaeven Liew (Preschool 2)

Kaeven has blossomed under the training from Heguru and is now filled with confidence. His ability to remember a string of number or colours is quite remarkable. What delighted me was his ability to recap science or worldly concepts which were shared in class through flashcards and songs. The program also ignited his love for puzzles. He is generally able to visualize well. This is also noted by his trainer. The experience with Heguru has been wonderful and each time when we miss a lesson, he would be very disappointed. His teachers love for him is sincere, hence he always looks forward to the lessons and even the homework! Thank you, Heguru!

Elsee Lim (Mummy of Elijah Tan – Infant Toddler)

Say Hi to City Square Mall’s first 2018 Heguru baby, Elijah! Not knowing how much will a 5 months old baby listen and understand in class, Mummy took a leap of faith and started classes with us. With quality brain stimulation coupled with home practices, mummy was surprised to learn that Elijah was quick to pick up things! At 7 months old, Elijah is able understand simple instructions like ‘high 5’ and ‘kick your right leg’. He is also able to pick the right item in a game of ‘which is the item?’.

Teacher Jerris is very professional and passionate to help draw out the strengths of my child.

Juniar, Parent of Bradley Chang (Preschool)

To me, after having the experience of putting my son in various enrichment programmes, I strongly feel that the nature of teachers is of paramount importance in any education programme. In Heguru, I must say full praises should go to the teachers. Due to their friendliness, three ways communications between teachers, students and parents have never been easier. They are sincere and industrious, great efforts can be seen in assisting all students. Since my son started on the programme I have noticed immense improvements in my son’s analytical capability. Apart from the teachers, I believe it has got to do with their programme. I am glad to have found Heguru for my son’s early stage of learning journey.

Chen Rong, Parent of Brayan Yao (Preschool)

Heguru Center @ Novena allows my child to have fun while learning, a great improvement from the traditional methods of learning. He looks forwards to the classes every week as he finds it both exciting and challenging to learn something new quickly. Also, I have seen significant improvement in my child’s memory skills after attending Heguru. No doubt, his capability of remembering things fast would aid him in the process of pursuing knowledge and possibly his academic studies in the future, placing him ahead of his peers.

Ng Peck Suan, Parent of Chloe & Dylan Woon (Infant & toddler)

Kathryn Ng, Parent of Darius Chang (Infant & toddler)

My son enjoys his lessons very much. Every Sunday he would say he will go find teacher Wenxin. Though he did not manage to concentrate on all parts of the lessons, he is still able to follow throughout. He already knows which part of the lessons is coming next even though no one announces it. Although I’m not sure if the lessons are ready beneficial to his growing up, but one thing I know it’s that he enjoys it & it’s good to have playtime and learning time together.

Kzel Sim, Parent of Lim Jun Yan (Infant & toddler)

Heguru Centre @ Novena has a group of warm & caring Principal & teachers. A down to earth centre rather than a commercialise company. My boy has picked up certain form of skills.

The lessons at Heguru Centre at Novena are well-planned with numerous interesting and engaging activities that are executed by highly motivated and encouraging teachers. Anya has been with Heguru for about 6 months under Teacher Karen and Teacher Min Ming and though she’s still relatively shy and not outspoken in class, I can see that she totally enjoys their lessons and begins to slowly participate more in the activities carried out by them. Thank you for ever being so patient and understanding to Anya, always encouraging and trying to get her to be more participative during lessons even when they have to provide the same amount of attention to the rest of the children too. Additionally, the weekly sharing of home practices/ parenting tips have also provided us, the parents really insightful advises at how we can better help our children with not only their learning journey but personal growth and development as well.

Kathlyn Teo, Parent of Kylee Jenn Teo (Infant & toddler)

Kylee has started lessons since she was 5 months old. There was once I brought her to enrol preschool, the teachers there were surprised/ amazed to see that her motor skills/ socialising skills are a little more developed as compared to others (same age). I think it is because of the lesson taken. Kylee really enjoys her time in Heguru. Really thankful for all the teachers to be so caring and friendly. As a first time mum, I love the part where “teaching methods” are taught at the end of the lesson. It is really helpful.

Heguru Center @Novena has friendly and cheerful teachers who could engage the attention of the children.

Landon is able to sit through at least 70% of the class without getting bored. This shows that the speed or duration of each activity is adequate to keep him engaged.

Although this is only a 1 hour per week class, he is able to recall a good proportion of concepts or knowledge presented as compared to his 3 times per week playgroup.

Gabriel has been attending classes at Heguru@Novena since it started in January 2013. I’m happy to see that he enjoys the classes, and looks forward to it every week. He has surprised me time and again with the knowledge that he picked up in class- I tried simple linking memory exercises at home and he was able to do it with me. On another occasion, he picked up a clock and turned the clock hands like what the teacher does in class, telling me “clockwise”. I look forward to more output in the coming months. Thank you to all the teachers at Novena!

Tan Gaik Yam (Mummy of Ethan Ng – Infant/Toddler Class)

As working parents, we have limited time in teaching our kid. After joining this Heguru Center @ Novena observed our kid improvement in communication, and expressing himself well. Also once a while we might get surprise when we found out our kid know something that we never taught him before. Recommended for joining this class!

The Shichida method is an exclusive educational system devised for young children up to the age of six years, conceived in Japan by Makoto Shichida. It has become more popular among parents in Singapore who are interested in boosting their kids’ early cognitive development. The Shichida method in Singapore provides balanced cognitive development from an early age by focusing on improving the brain’s creative and analytical capacities.

Key Factors of the Shichida Method

Memory enhancement: Practices and activities designed to improve photographic memory and quick reading skills.

Sensory skills: Such exercises by children increase their senses, which makes children well-tuned to their environment.

Critical thinking: Exercises aimed at improving comprehension as well as intellectual abilities.

Creative and imaginative: The approach is anchored in the art of creative imagination through stories and art activities.

Emotional development: The Shichida method in Singapore involves building a warm relationship between children and parents that forms the basis for emotional growth.

Why Are Parents Endorsing the Shichida Method in Singapore Positively?

Parents endorse the Shichida method since it provides a holistic kind of early education, armouring children with higher brain cognitive skills and emotional intelligence. It will prepare the child for academic excellence as well as all-around life.

The Shichida method is a soft structure for young children at a stage where their potential for development is high, hence making a base for future advancement. It’s therefore a very good option for parents to give their entire full developmental education to their kids.
