Message: Mr. Sean Ho started teaching my friend and I late into my JC 2 year in ACJC. Although we did not have much time together, I could tell that my ability to handle my GP papers was increasing. Mr Ho taught me the skills to improve all aspects of my papers and it really gave me the confidence to do well. I once thought GP was a dull and boring subject just like English in secondary school. After my lessons commenced, I realized that I was only on the surface of the subject and there was much more uncovered territory for me. I could now tackle many essay questions that I normally avoided. I would definitely recommend him to my friends. The only regret I have was not to start his lessons earlier in the year.

Message: Tutor Sean's lessons never fail to hold my interest as he always injects humor into the General Paper topics discussed and always brings fresh perspectives to the discussions. He has been a very responsible and punctual tutor, always ensuring that my doubts are cleared before moving onto the next issue at hand. Besides being spot-on about the mistakes and misconceptions that I frequently have, he also taught me to think fast and to use an open mind to view current events. He would bring supplementary materials to lesson in order for me to gain a wider and deeper perspective on the content needed for GP. I appreciate his dedication to teaching and insightful takes on the world around us, and would definitely recommend such a fabulous teacher to those who are looking for a caring and learned GP tutor.

Message: Sean teaches General Paper at Nexus Academics. He is, in my opinion, a commendable teacher.
Sean has proven himself competitive in his field. Having a constant thirst for knowledge and a desire to share what he knows, Sean teaches his students on issues that are of significant relevance to this day and age.
Sean also displays the ability to wield both friendship and strictness with his students appropriately. In essence, he is teacher, and yet, a close friend.
Unlike educators who push blindly for results, Sean takes time to strategically pinpoint students' weaknesses, resolving them in a concise, step-by-step manner. Personally, I find his method refreshing and productive.
Teachers teach for different reasons; some for the money, others for recognition, but only a handful, do it for the students. Sean is someone who does what he does for the students.

Message: Sean Ho's General Paper lessons are understandable and interactive. In addition, his explanations are clear and adequate, and becoming progressively difficult to maximize the tutoring time to achieve a greater output.
His teaching style revolves about giving practices that are suited to my level of learning. He marks and gives feedback with relevance to recent news that happens around the globe, which makes information easier to remember. Another personal touch of Sean is his ability to motivate students to further their interests in the subject instead of just plain learning for examinations. He is also very serious about his work, attentive and punctual for his lessons.
