“We must persevere! We can’t let negativity and what others say mess with our goals; and most importantly, we need to be brave enough to try something that is totally outside our comfort zone.”
This spirit of courage and growth echoed through our lessons at ILTI this week. From exploring bold themes like adventure sports to diving into imaginative stories, our learners expanded their vocabulary, practised communication skills, and challenged themselves in meaningful ways.
It’s been another colourful week of discovery, learning, and stepping beyond comfort zones at ILTI!
“If we were to die tomorrow, would we truly be spending our last day on Earth doing what we do today?”
A gentle reminder from Ms Evelyn that life is unpredictable and precious. Let’s choose to live meaningfully, argue less, and express more — while we still have the time.💛

“My childhood taught me that effective communication builds understanding and trust. That same philosophy guides every interaction at ILTI.”
At ILTI, communication isn’t just a tool – it’s the foundation of everything we do. From daily greetings to WhatsApp updates and PTCs, we value open, meaningful dialogue with our families. And this week, that same spirit carried into our classrooms.
Our Lower FCE students explored phrasal verbs like “get up” and “get over” through engaging conversations and role plays, while Upper KET students uncovered the inspiring stories of Hedy Lamarr and Rosalind Franklin, sparking thoughtful discussions on innovation and recognition.
Another week of learning, connecting, and growing at ILTI!
“Getting old is a privilege, sadly denied to many. How we treat the elderly directly influences their happiness and well-being; so, please, BE KIND!” ❤️
This week, Ms Evelyn reflects on the beauty of growing old and the deep respect we owe to our elders. A value she’s carried since childhood and now passes on to the next generation at ILTI.
As we begin Term 3, we’ve also had the chance to sit down with parents during our Parent-Teacher Meetings, celebrating our students’ growth from the previous term. Just like the wisdom shared by the elderly, these conversations remind us how important it is to nurture, guide and honour every stage of life.

Meanwhile, our students spent five lively mornings last week in an English Speaking & Conversation Bootcamp — building confidence and fluency through fun, hands-on activities like role plays, group discussions, and storytelling. Each day brought a new theme, making language learning both engaging and meaningful.

“Our fathers have more influence on us than we give them credit for.”
With Father’s Day coming up on Sunday, let’s take a moment to show love and appreciation to the dads and father figures who quietly shape our lives in powerful ways. 💙

“I think perhaps, we should all be kinder to ourselves instead of setting impossible goals.”
A gentle reminder from Ms. Evelyn’s message this week, that it’s okay to pause, breathe, and simply be. As we welcome June and all its unexpected rush, let’s not forget that progress doesn’t always have to be perfect.
And speaking of progress, well done to all our ILTI students who have completed their Term 2 exams! You’ve earned your rest. Take this time to recharge, and we’ll see you next week as we step into Term 3 together.
“This is a clear reminder of how closely connected we are, just as in 2019, when the virus spread from one city to the entire world in a matter of weeks.”
With Covid-19 cases on the rise again, it’s crucial that we stay vigilant, look after our well-being, and look out for one another.
At ILTI, our FCE, CAE, and CPE students have just completed their Term 2 Writing Paper exams. Let’s encourage them to stay motivated as they prepare for their upcoming Reading, Use of English, and Listening exams next week!
“What seems like an easy task can be an arduous effort for children.”
