About Do Applied Learning

We do not believe in endless drilling. At DO Applied Learning by Epoch Talent Academy, every lesson is built on proven frameworks like PECSI (Point, Explain, Context, Substantiation, Implication) and Comprehension Levelling.

These give your child a clear structure to tackle any question. Unlike generic tuition, our focus is not just teaching. Instead, it is training your child to think, express, and score with confidence.

Your child will be taught by Teacher Daniel, an experienced English specialist who has coached hundreds of students through national exams. Every class is personally designed and taught by him, not outsourced or rotated.

From enrolment to graduation, your child is guided by the same teacher all the way, so they are never left in the lurch.

We specialise in English and Mathematics for students from Primary 4 to Secondary 4. This includes preparation for the PSLE, O-Level, Integrated Programme (IP), and International Baccalaureate (IB) syllabuses. Each lesson is carefully aligned with MOE requirements while also developing higher-order thinking and problem-solving skills, giving your child an advantage in both schoolwork and examinations.

Learning Approach & Support

Many parents come to us after feeling disappointed with previous tuition. The difference here is our systematic method. Weak students do not need more worksheets. They need a framework that helps them understand how to answer consistently. Once they see success with small wins, confidence grows and performance follows.
We do not just teach skills. We rebuild confidence. Struggling students are given clear steps they can actually follow, which reduces fear of failure. Our lessons are interactive and encouraging, so students learn to express themselves in a safe environment. Once a child feels capable, the shift in mindset translates into lasting results.

The diagnostic consultation is an important first step. It allows us to assess your child’s current strengths, weaknesses, and learning style before they join a programme. During this session, we identify specific areas where your child struggles and explain how our approach can address those gaps.

Parents also gain a clearer understanding of the challenges and how we plan to support their child. This ensures that from day one, your child receives targeted guidance rather than a generic tuition plan.

Yes. While our curriculum follows MOE guidelines, no two students are the same. Our frameworks are adaptable, meaning they can be applied to students of varying abilities — from those struggling to keep up to those aiming for top distinctions. Lessons are adjusted to address individual challenges, ensuring that every child benefits fully and sees progress at their own pace.
We monitor each student’s development through class participation, written work, and consistent feedback. Parents are regularly updated on progress so they can see tangible improvements, both in confidence and academic performance. Rather than relying on short-term results, we focus on steady, sustainable growth. This way, students build strong foundations that last beyond a single exam.

Exams & Results

Yes. Every class is aligned with the requirements set by MOE. From composition and oral skills to comprehension and summary writing, we equip students with exam-ready techniques. By the time exams come, they are not guessing. They are applying tested strategies.

Each child learns differently, but many parents report noticeable improvements in both attitude and performance within the first few months. We focus first on building understanding and confidence, which often leads to visible changes in schoolwork and teacher feedback. As students continue with our methods, their results typically show steady improvement, especially as exam skills become second nature.

Yes. We give you two guarantees:

  1. If your child continues the same way without any change in learning habits, there will be no improvement. Can you live with that? If not, we will show your child the new approach they need.
  2. We operate on a one all-in rate basis. That means no hidden deposit, material fees, or admin charges. If you do not see your child doing better, you can leave anytime without being locked in. There is no notice period required.

Lessons & Logistics

Yes. We offer a complimentary diagnostic consultation so you can see how your child learns with us before committing. This also allows us to identify strengths and weaknesses upfront, ensuring your child gets the right support from day one.
We offer lessons in the format that best supports effective learning. Parents may discuss options with us during the diagnostic consultation to determine whether in-person or online classes are more suitable for their child. Regardless of format, the teaching methods and frameworks remain the same to ensure consistency and results.
Our core lessons are conducted in small groups, as this encourages interaction and allows students to learn from one another while still receiving individual attention. The group size is carefully managed to ensure no student is overlooked. For students requiring closer, one-to-one support, additional arrangements can be discussed with us.
Lessons typically run between 1.5 to 2 hours. This duration strikes the right balance: enough time for students to learn frameworks, practise skills, and receive feedback, but not so long that they lose focus or become overwhelmed.
We maintain a transparent, all-in fee structure. Parents are informed of the rates upfront, and there are no hidden charges such as deposits, materials, or administrative costs. This allows families to plan with peace of mind, knowing exactly what to expect.
The first step is to book a complimentary diagnostic consultation. Once we have assessed your child’s learning needs, we will recommend a suitable class and schedule. Enrolment is straightforward, with no contracts, hidden obligations, or notice periods. Parents can make informed decisions with full confidence in the process.
