Principal's Introduction
Success Tutorial School (STS) was established in 1992 by Mr. Paul Choi, a senior Mathematic teacher in Hong Kong and Canada. He has written over 60 mathematics text and reference books, some of them are currently used in Hong Kong.
With over forty years of teaching experience, Mr. Choi firmly believes that every child possesses the potential to excel in mathematics provided that
- The child is given concise and clear conceptual notes with abundant examples;
- The child is guided and kept on track by experienced instructors;
- the child is taught materials more advanced than he or she is really doing in school.
Your child will definitely attain these by joining the courses provided by Success Tutorial School. Our success has been proven by the excellent academic results and awards achieved by thousands of our former students. The number of students in STS in 2006 is 2500. We attribute the steady increase in enrolment to the strong recommendations by parents.

Eric Choi, Senior Grades Math teacher - M.A.(Ed), B.A.(Ec)
Eric is an experienced teacher with a passion for education. He challenges his students to always test their limits and push themselves to the next level. This fosters growth and when a student succeeds in a task that previously was difficult, they build confidence to overcome their next challenge. In mathematics, a solid foundation is the key to the success, and it is never too late to start from the basics. The key is to identify weaknesses and focus core foundations before tackling more complicated problems in the long run.
