Miss Loi is a full-time private tutor in Singapore specializing in O-Level Maths. Her life's calling is to eradicate the terrifying LMBFH Syndrome off the face of this planet. For over 17 years she has been a savior to countless students ... 
Many of you will know that the exact location of Miss Loi’s Temple is shrouded in secrecy, known only to students who have signed up for her tuition classes.
Miss Loi is not trying to be all mystical or funny. She hopes everyone can understand that as more people get to know about this blog, and being a delicate person with a timid heart, she would like to preempt the possibility of some un-student-like stalker (apart from their parents) appearing unannounced at her doorstep.
Unfortunately, despite being given the exact coordinates, some students are destined to get lost among the wilderness of Novena, and in danger of being waylaid and devoured by wild beasts in the form of other tuition agencies in the area (just joking here - no offence to any tuition centers in Novena!).
To that end, she has put up a series of signage for the purpose of guiding her flock of lost sheeps to the correct destination.
The First Sign
You will see this sign soon after you exit from Novena MRT Station and turn round a corner. At this point you should be able to feel a gentle breeze of serenity upon your face as, indeed, salvation is near.
And yes, there really are 38 steps you need to climb.
The Second Sign
Halfway through your arduous 38-step climb, this second sign reassures you that you are indeed on the right path to enlightenment (and not on a wretched road leading to the wrong tuition center *joking again*).
The Final Sign
When you see this, you are standing just beyond the sacred Temple Grounds. The pull on your Mathematical consciousness by Miss Loi’s presence emanating from within, can be rather overwhelming at this spot.
Enter and be saved.
The Temple Gates
Finally. Looming before you are the mighty Temple Gates, where a mere glance at them is enough to reduce straight-As students to tears. The aura surrounding you here can be blinding, as you suddenly experience a positive surge of Mathematical prowess.
Pause, look in awe and pose for a few touristy photos while you can.
Now step inside, lots of joss sticks are waiting to be burned!

I am very impressed with your way of welcoming your students and parents to your “classroom”! I really like the “Just a few more steps to ENLIGHTENMENT”. Haha

Wow, this is brilliant… Don’t think that many tuition centres are willing to spend some effort to put up such signs. =P
And they really look quite pretty, not those done in MS Word type.

Thanks Cris, just felt that they would benefit from some extra ‘encouragement’ along the way

Thanks hendri. Just hope that this will not attract any unwanted attention from the owners of the many, many ‘done in MS Word types’ in the vicinity!

Thanx charles.

Glad you liked them BR.
Must also thank the Bras Basah printer for the good print job!
Hope that they at least look better than a typical ‘MS Word in A4 paper’ job

Of course! They looked really good. I am very much into advertising, and this is quite a good branding I would say! =)

Wow. Any more tips from the Advertising Guru?
Some have feedback that they thought Miss Loi is training young Jedis in the Temple *lol*

Maple: No choice. Spent long talktimes on the phone directing lost students wandering in the vicinity.
So the signs have to be eye-catching enough, else there will be more and more wandering around in the vicinity looking ’stoned’!
Not a pretty sight.

ah yes. you resemble my current maths relief teacher (who is a guy,btw) and is obsessed with greek mythology and science and technology
(gosh he’s really immodest. S:)
need some matchmaking sessions?

Clarion, Miss Loi has a nagging suspicion that your relief teacher might be this guy.
Let her know if your ‘cher has the prerequisite stockpile of platinum + gold + diamond credit cards
But Greek mythology? This blog has only Greek symbols aplenty!
曜

no, he is NOT the guy you suspected.
and he is impoverished ( thats what he said himself anyway.)
And do you want his blog URL?
曜
日
Ooh a fellow blogger? Put forth thy URL! *kaypoh mode on*
P.S. These days, never believe anyone if he tells you he’s impoverished.
