Meet Your Teacher
A PLA teacher spends 20–30 minutes with your child. Fun, relaxed, and interactive.
Discuss the Next Step
We explain your child’s reading level and recommendations during the session, then send a WhatsApp summary afterward.
What You'll Receive After the Assessment
You'll hear what your child can already do and which skills need more practice, whether or not you enrol.
Reading Feedback
A discussion of your child’s current reading strengths and areas that may need support, followed by a WhatsApp summary.
A Recommended Starting Level
We recommend a programme starting point based on the reading skills observed during the session.
Questions with a Teacher
Ask anything — about the reading skills your child is practising, what to expect from the programme, or how to support them at home.
Centre Tour (In-Person Sessions)
See the classroom, meet the teachers, and see how the classroom is set up before you make any decision.
Why Paced Learning Academy
We help children develop their reading skills through structured, supportive lessons. Here's what makes our approach different.
9+ Years Teaching Phonics
We teach children aged 3–8 in person and ages 4–8 online, adapting activities to their starting point.
Four Paid Trial Sessions
Experience the lessons before deciding whether to continue. Registration is payable only after the paid trial, if you continue.
Teachers Who Take Time to Listen
Teachers listen as children read, notice where they need help and model the sounds or words they are working on.
Flexible: In-Person or Online
Available at our Kovan (SG) and Oasis Ara Damansara (MY) centres, or from the comfort of your home via our fully interactive online programme.
What Parents Say
Parents share their experiences of lessons at PLA.
"My son was struggling with reading when he first entered Primary school. Within 4 weeks with Teacher Gan, it was like something just clicked and he became much better!"
"Our son started lessons with Paced a year ago and we have been watching him progress and love his phonics lessons! Kudos to Teacher Vernon and Teacher Belle — extremely patient, nurturing and encouraging."
"My son has mild autism and Paced Learning Academy helped him by finding the right teacher for him. After 1.5 years, he has learned to read, recognise words and construct sentences."

Common Questions from Parents
We know you have questions before committing to anything. Here are the ones we hear most often.
Is the assessment complimentary?
Yes. The assessment is completely complimentary, with no payment, deposit, or obligation to enrol. It is designed to help you better understand your child’s current reading ability before deciding on the next step.
How long does the assessment take?
The assessment usually takes around 20–30 minutes. For younger children, it may be shorter depending on their attention span and reading level.
What ages are suitable for the assessment?
Our in-person assessment is suitable for children aged 3–8, while our online assessment is suitable for ages 4–8.
Age gives us a general guide, but the assessment allows us to understand your child’s actual reading ability and recommend the most suitable starting level.
What happens after the assessment? Do I have to enrol?
There is absolutely no obligation to enrol.
During the session, our teacher will share observations about your child’s reading level, areas of strength, and areas that may need further support. If you would like your child to experience our programme, you may start with our 4-session paid trial to see if it is a suitable fit for your child.
Can the assessment be done online from home?
Yes. Our online assessment is available for children aged 4–8 and is conducted live with a teacher.
You will simply need a stable internet connection and a device with a camera, such as a laptop, tablet, or phone. A laptop or tablet is generally recommended for a more comfortable learning experience.
