Let’s face it.
General Paper (GP) does matter.
If you’re barely passing, you’re right to be worried.
Many courses in university require at least a good pass. Competitive courses require much more.
Failure is not an option. (97% of students passed GP in 2017, you don’t want to be that 3%)
But, you say, tuition is too expensive, too useless. Brand-name centres charge hundreds and they pack their classes.
Five minutes for you. Only five minutes to explain the red marks. Just five minutes to connect.
You spend five hours on your essay. They scribble a few words.
You have a question. But so does everyone else.
Sorry. Time’s up. See you next week.
You give up.
It’s impossible. Too much to memorise. Too subjective.
But, wait…
Failure is still not an option.
What to do?
We’re Here to Help.
First things first:
There is NO shortcut.
Learning to write well is a long and tedious process and achieving true content mastery requires dedication and effort.
The good news is, we’re here to show you how to do it. We’re here to make it enjoyable and feel as effortless as possible.
So, let’s get down to it.

What Our Students Say About
Our GP Tuition Method
During GP lessons, every student is given meticulous care and Mr Liau caters relevant solutions to specific problems each student faces for GP.
Mr Liau is dedicated to prepping his students with utmost general knowledge. He intends for us to possess a greater understanding of the ongoing issues and opinions that we discuss and write.
Through such a method, we are able to write out our own personal take, add in comprehensive examples to substantiate our points. Take for instance, through Mr Liau’s notes, I am able to discuss many topics in essays extensively, ranging from the environment to societal issues. My essay marks eventually improved over time through continuous practice and amendment as guided by Mr Liau.
I am grateful for his assistance throughout such a stressful period of JC life!
Classes with Mr Liau always bring fresh insights that have never crossed my mind during my self-study or even during GP lessons in school. He always challenges me to stretch myself and deeply explore conventional topics and issues that are usually only superficially discussed in school. The weekly materials he provides, called “Readabee”, are full of new ideas and content which prove to be very useful in brainstorming for essays.
Mr Liau’s strong foundation in the fundamentals of logic (such as arguments and premises) helps me to hone my reading and writing further. His strong sense of logic also helps in analysing passages, questions and complex issues clearly. His excellent language abilities have likewise enabled me to refine my writing to write more clearly and concisely.
He pushes my intellectual limit and inspires me to take an interest in the subject and in current events. With his help I am more confident of my GP exams in my A levels.
Before joining The Mustard Seed, I was scoring an ‘E-grade’ for General Paper. After weeks of discussion about current issues and brainstorming on essay plans, I’m glad to have improved to a ‘B-grade’ at the A-levels.
I am truly grateful for Teacher Chuan Yi’s conscientious effort to put together weekly Readabees (Set of compiled articles about current issues). Having it as an online version made it convenient and this fueled my drive to start reading to find out more about what is happening around the world. This allowed me to draw examples I have read from these articles to my essays/application questions. I was also able to learn from the different writing styles of the authors to modify the tone or approach of my essays to suit the topic better.
All in all, I am really appreciative of the hard work Teacher Chuan Yi put in to make every lesson an engaging and fruitful one!
Mr Liau is very knowledgeable about GP topics and current affairs. He provided me with plenty of resources that helped me keep up with what’s going on around the world as well as good examples that I could use in my essays.
Through active discussions, Mr Liau always guided me to see things from a different perspective which allowed me to elaborate on my arguments in essays. In order to help me improve my comprehension, besides standard answer keys, Mr Liau has his own answers for all the comprehension practices. His answer keys often provided simpler, more straightforward explanations which allowed me to see more clearly where my mistakes were.
His lessons were very effective in helping me improve my ability to read and write. It was a fun journey studying GP with his help.
I joined Teacher Chuan Yi’s class since J1. His lessons really helped me a lot in my schoolwork. His explanations are detailed, allowing us to understand current issues that are happening around the world.
Teacher Chuan Yi is also a very thoughtful teacher as he will provide us with a long list of articles every month in order to buck up our content for the GP subject and keep us updated as well. The articles that he found were extremely useful and can be used in either our essays or AQ.
With his lessons and explanations, my grade for GP has improved a lot.
Tuition at My Mustard Seed has always been enjoyable for me, with caring teachers and friends that made my learning experience here a very fulfilling one.
The classroom experience has always been a relatively open one, where we hold discussions about various topics and are free to express any opinions we have.
This has greatly broadened my perspectives about the world, giving me deeper insights on how the world functions and how one thing impacts the other.
Through the various discussions and guidance provided, not only have I improved on my language skills, but also in my common sense, which have benefitted me greatly in General Paper.
