What students say about the Eureka Pedagogy
Mrs Tham has developed my language skills and writing techniques since I was in Primary 3 and she has inspired me in many ways. Now, at 18, I have a thorough appreciation for different text forms and I wouldn t be where I am if it weren t for her commitment, drive and passion in nurturing her students to fulfil their potential. It is definite that Mrs Tham never rests on her laurels and is constantly striving to be the best that she can be - and this is clearly represented in her Eureka pedagogy and her writing.
Will Angkawidjaja, Anglo-Chinese School (Independent) (former Anglo-Chinese School - Junior student)
I owe it to Mrs Tham for developing not only my writing style, but a love for the English Language as well. It is hard to find a teacher as passionate about the subjects that she teaches as Mrs Tham. It has been a privilege to have been under the tutelage of such a seasoned teacher.
Shauna Cheong, Methodist Girls School (Secondary) (former Singapore Chinese Girls School - Primary student)
The Eureka series are not just books containing essays that have been put together, but they have really given me inspiration for my writing. The various techniques and skills in the Eureka pedagogy so evident in each essay has helped me mature in the way I think, plan and pen my thoughts down over the years, since I started attending Mrs Tham s classes when I was 10.
Andre Shum, Anglo-Chinese School (Barker Road) - Head Prefect, 2016 (former Anglo-Chinese School - Junior student)
Mrs Tham s passion for teaching English and English Literature is extremely obvious as she always enthusiastically conveys her techniques and Eureka pedagogy in varying manners and styles, such that the lessons are entertaining. Students will never be bored. Not a single second of a lesson is wasted as she gives as much information as possible, all the while stopping and slowing down whenever a student says that he or she is lagging behind
Luke Theng, Anglo-Chinese Junior College (former Anglo-Chinese School (Barker Road) and Anglo-Chinese School - Junior student)
Mrs Tham has taught me for more than four years and she has helped me excel in the English Language and English Literature. She has shown me how colourful and diverse the world of language can be. I have learnt to find joy in learning English and hope to continue learning under this wonderful teacher for years to come!
Ethan Tan, Anglo-Chinese School (Independent) (former Anglo-Chinese School - Primary student)
I ve been Mrs Tham s student since Primary 4. She has helped me tremendously with my vocabulary through learning good phrases that could be used in compositions. She refined my skills in answering comprehension questions by showing me how to glean important content in each passage and to use that to answer questions. Cloze passages were made simple in her classes with her thorough explanations and effective tips.
In secondary school, Mrs Tham taught me Language Arts (Literature). She taught me effective ways of structuring written commentary essays and how to convey my points in a concise and persuasive manner. These skills also came in handy for expository essays. Her Eureka pedagogy has been extremely impactful for me.
Ian Shum, Anglo-Chinese School (Independent) (former Anglo-Chinese School - Junior student)
English lessons had always been a struggle for me since primary school. However, attending teacher Diana s classes since I was 11 has ignited my appreciation and passion for the language, allowing me to improve by leaps and bounds from primary school all the way to my distinctions in the O-Levels for English Language and English Literature.
Jeremy Kow, Anglo-Chinese Junior College (former Anglo-Chinese School (Independent) and Anglo-Chinese School - Primary student)
Mrs Tham is a very interesting and captivating teacher. Her lessons are very animated and fun. She is caring and passionate, patient and knowledgeable. She is a wonderful teacher and I have learnt a lot from her teaching pedagogies.
Tricia Koh, Methodist Girls School (former Singapore Chinese Girls School - Primary student)
Mrs Tham has been writing good books ever since she started on her Short Stories Eureka . Her Eureka pedagogy, tips and essays have really inspired me and helped me a lot with my school work since primary school.
Daniel Lee, Anglo-Chinese School (Barker Road) (former Anglo-Chinese School - Primary student)
Mrs Tham has taught me since primary school when I was 12, and while her lessons were intense, they were intellectually rewarding and stimulating. Composition skills taught by her Eureka pedagogy have remained relevant even in higher levels of education, and even now at 18 years of age, my writing ability has been greatly boosted because of her teaching.
Kenneth Koh, Anglo-Chinese School (Independent) (former St Joseph s Institution and Pei Hwa Presbyterian Primary School student)
I started to attend Mrs Tham s English lessons at the tender age of 11. She is a remarkable and devoted teacher, who has had a positive impact on my studies. Her lessons are well organised and greatly beneficial to her students. She teaches her students many skills and techniques according to her Eureka pedagogy that has allowed me to excel in the subjects that she teaches me for. Now at 17 years of age, looking back at all the input she has given me, I have to admit - she has been instrumental in helping me get to my current standard and I am truly grateful for everything she has done for me.
William Goh, Hwa Chong International (former Anglo-Chinese School - Barker Road and Primary student)
Mrs Tham has been nothing short of a fantastic teacher. Passionate and bubbly, she has made English truly come alive for me since I started going to her in primary school. Her mastery of the English language and joy allows me to appreciate the beauty of every single word. Above all, she is a teacher who doesn t just simply impart knowledge, but inspires. Her Eureka pedagogy effectively conveyed in her Eureka series of books for secondary and primary schools have been meticulously pieced together to provide a structured learning method for students of all ages and levels to effectively navigate the otherwise ambiguous waters of the English Language.
Sean Chiu, School of Science and Technology (former Anglo-Chinese School - Primary student)
Having Mrs Tham as my teacher for the past decade (since primary school) has been extremely fulfilling and rewarding. Under her Eureka pedagogy, I have acquired the necessary skills and knowledge required to achieve exceptional results in my various Literature and English writing examinations and assignments.
Elizabeth Koh, Hwa Chong International (former Pei Hwa Presbyterian Primary School student)
Mrs Tham s Eureka pedagogies have helped me to improve my vocabulary throughout my primary school years and have taught me many different writing techniques which have helped me significantly in achieving stellar results in school.
Jonathan Chng, Anglo-Chinese School (Independent) (former Anglo-Chinese School - Junior student)
I am proud to be the main contributor to Mrs Diana Tham s Primary Eureka series of model essays. Personally, the Eureka series of books for secondary school students has been an interesting and eye-opening read for me, containing essays about varied topics ranging from travel to leadership. Reading one essay from the books a day doesn t take much time, but can vastly improve one s general knowledge. Mrs Tham s style of teaching has been engaging for me, and even as a primary school child when I started with her at 8, I have fond memories studying under her expert tutelage and have learnt much from her Eureka pedagogy and methodology of writing and tackling English Language questions for Paper 2. I remember looking forward to the publication of her first book of the Eureka series! Now that her series has extended to the primary school Eureka series, I am confident that this series of Eureka books will be of great help and benefit to primary school students.
