“All the teachers at MDIS are not only professional, but they are also patient. Even during our holiday, they will always teach me when I do not understand the lesson. Having a small class size also allows the teachers to give every student more personalised attention. ”

“My experience with MDIS was enjoyable and memorable. Even though I had no prior knowledge of what GCE 'O' level is all about and the subjects I must study for, I picked it up quickly with the help of both my subject teachers and staff at MDIS. Not only are the teachers patient, but they will go the extra mile to make sure I understand the subject contents. They are readily available whenever I need help from them. ”
