Parent of three

"After I learned that my friend's daughter went to REC, my oldest son was in need of tuition for his GCSEs. After a success with him, I signed up my two other children. Miss Rifqa has been a great teacher for all my kids."

"My son Hisham (Yr 9) and daughter Hafsa (Yr 8) have been learning at REC since September 2015, and already we are witnessing a marked academic improvement in both. Ms Rifqa is a very talented teacher who puts the students at ease and enables learning to take place. The holistic learning experience she offers is specific and personalised to the child — and she makes extra effort to keep parents informed, a rare thing for a tutorial centre and what sets her apart."

"Miss Rifqa not only cares about our learning and progress — she cares about each and every one of her students. Her constant motivation and exceptional teaching methods have driven me down the path to success. I can't thank her enough."

"Mrs Rifqa has been incredibly helpful in building my technique in understanding English and Sciences. She's been so kind and supportive — but also stern when she needs to be — both academically and emotionally, and I wouldn't be where I am without her!"

"REC is a means to fulfil a student's full potential. The work, time and effort put into producing such high-quality classes enables students to not only understand the content being taught but to also learn to enjoy it."

"Three of my children attended REC during their secondary school years and have enjoyed the learning atmosphere, excellent guidance and tuition. REC has a distinct family feeling where you feel welcome, and the children enjoy revising for their exams. We particularly enjoyed the extra-curricular activities — the end-of-year celebration, sports day and spelling bee. Our children have achieved their potential with the help of REC. I would whole-heartedly recommend it to friends and families."

"Over the last few years REC has become a second home to me. The endless hours Ms Rifqa puts in for each of her students has clearly benefitted us all immensely!"

"I follow the quote: 'Work while you work, play while you play', said by the wonderful Mrs. Rifqa. This has led me to strive and continue to achieve great things."

"There are many education centres in Doha, but this one stands out. It is not merely an education centre, but a place where the students and even the parents feel part of something special. Students are encouraged to try harder, be better, never settle for less, and to challenge themselves to go the extra mile. That is the place Ms Rifqa Saleem creates through her hard work and unfailing dedication."
