Positioned at the heart of Katong, Hua Cheng Education Centre’s Parkway Centre branch offers a dynamic learning environment that taps into the vibrancy of this well-known heritage district. Just steps away from the popular Parkway Parade, this branch provides easy access for students and families in the East Coast area. The surrounding neighbourhood, with its rich blend of tradition and modernity, creates a unique backdrop for academic growth. In this article, we’ll explore the distinctive qualities of our Parkway Centre branch and how it continues to empower students through dedicated learning experiences.
Smaller Class Sizes for Greater Individual Attention
Unlike your average school class size of around 40 students, Hua Cheng Education Centre prioritises a lower teacher-to-student ratio, guaranteeing that each child receives the individual attention they deserve. In this smaller setting, students may find themselves more comfortable and confident engaging with teachers, asking questions and seeking clarification — an experience often lacking in larger school classrooms. Educators can also closely monitor every child’s progress and cater to their specific learning needs, ultimately fostering a more conducive environment for mastering the Chinese language.
Wide Range of Class Schedules
Understanding the busy lifestyle of Singaporean families, we offer a variety of Mandarin enrichment class schedules to accommodate different commitments. Whether parents have work obligations or children are juggling extracurricular activities, the Parkway Centre branch provides flexible timings to suit everyone’s needs. This range of options allows parents and students to choose the most convenient class times, ensuring that education seamlessly fits into their daily lives without added stress.
Specialised Teachers
At Hua Cheng Education Centre, we pride ourselves on our team of passionate, committed and highly qualified educators. Founded in the year 2000 by a group of NIE-trained teachers, our curriculum is developed according to the latest MOE syllabus with expert guidance from a former Associate Professor from NIE-NTU. This focus on expertise is essential in shaping a teaching approach that maximises each student’s potential in learning the Chinese language. At the Parkway Centre branch, you can expect teachers who are not only dedicated but also equipped with the knowledge and experience necessary to provide top-tier education.

Holistic Learning Experience
Recognising that education extends beyond academics, we advocate for holistic learning that emphasises the development of children, nurturing intellectual growth as well as emotional, social, and cultural understanding. We integrate this philosophy by providing a learning environment that encourages creativity, critical thinking, and a love for the Chinese language. For instance, our Chinese enrichment class for preschoolers incorporates words, pictures, and nursery rhymes to enhance children’s language experience. Through engaging lessons, interactive activities, and cultural exposure, students gain a well-rounded education that promotes both academic success and personal development.
