Dear Parents,

Further to the email you have received from our CEO Mr Lee Siang which stated: 

"The Ministry of Education (MOE) has made an announcement that centre-based learning will go online from 17 May. (https://www.moe.gov.sg/news/press-releases/20210514-stepping-up-safemanagement-measures--in-schools-and-institutes-of-higher-learning). This situation is not new to us and we successfully completed online learning in the circuit breaker period in 2020 with incredible support from parents and hard work from students. Learning online was effective and we are sure this will occur again during this period. As a result of the MOE advice to DAS, we would like to advise you of our altered operations from Monday 17 May".

Online DAS International Specialist Tutoring

It is important to us that your child's learning and improvement is not disrupted. We are therefore pleased to continue to provide Specialist tutoring classes online from Monday 17 May until Sunday 13 June 2021 as per the "Phase 2 - Heightened Alert" duration.

Online Specialist tutoring conducted during the circuit breaker last year received positive feedback from both the parents and the students with many parents still choosing to continue with the specialist tutoring lessons online after the circuit breaker finished. One of the advantages that parents have is that they can observe the online class being conducted. We are confident your child will learn effectively once again through online learning during this period.

Your child's Specialist teacher is here to consult with you before any online tutoring takes place. Once confirmed, your child's classes will continue at the normal class timing delivered online. We will also keep you updated on the resumption of in-person lessons.

Fees

Fees for Specialist tutoring received face-to-face is different from online. Kindly note that we will provide you with a credit note for the difference between the fees for the face-to-face lessons and fees for the online tutoring lessons. This credit note can then be used to offset future packages or refunded to you if your child does not continue with specialist tutoring after finishing your specialist tutoring package.

Your child’s learning remains important to us and once again, we will work together to ensure that our students receive the educational support that they need. Thank you for entrusting your child to DAS International Specialist tutoring.

Stay strong, safe, and healthy everyone.

Yours sincerely,

Anaberta Oehlers-Jaen
Head, DAS International
