Who We Are

Asia's Leading Confidence Speaking Programme for Kids

Deemcee is a structured confidence speaking programme for children aged 5 to 12. Established in 2017, our mission is simple: to give every child the skills, tools, and confidence to speak up and be heard.

Our curriculum is built on child developmental psychology and years of interactive classroom experience. Every lesson is designed around how children actually learn at their golden age of confidence development.

Our Vision

To nurture a confident, growth-oriented mindset in every child β€” empowering them to speak up, express themselves, and connect with the world around them.

Our Mission

To build children's speaking confidence through fun, themed, and progressive learning that gives them real practice, real feedback, and real growth.

Our Values

Kaizen β€” Small, steady steps. Every child grows at their own pace, and every effort counts. Vivace β€” Lively, expressive, and full of energy β€” because that's how confidence sounds. Quality β€” A consistent, high-standard experience for every child, in every classroom, in every centre.

Our Promise

"Speak Lively." Every Deemcee child leaves a little louder, a little brighter, and a little braver than they came in.

Pillars

Research-Backed Curriculum

Our programme is grounded in child developmental psychology and updated educational research.

Trained Educators

Every Deemcee teacher undergoes structured certification in our proprietary teaching method before being entrusted with our students.

Small Class Sizes

We keep classes small (maximum of 6 students) so every child gets real practice time and personal attention in every session.

Real-World Application

Children practise speaking in real-world settings so their skills transfer to school, family, and life.

How We Teach

How Do We Build Confidence Here?

Everyone can speak. Speaking with confidence is a skill β€” and it develops through structured practice, real feedback, and the right environment.

Occupational Thematic Learning

Children practise speaking as news presenters, tour guides, doctors, photographers, entrepreneurs and many other themed occupations. Real-world themes form a fun foundation that links directly to future-ready skills.

Kaizen Progression

We live by the value of "Kaizen" β€” small, steady improvements. Celebrating every step builds confidence in students, teachers, and the whole community.

Challenge Day

At the end of each term, our students perform on a live stage in front of a real audience. In advanced grades, students even take on entrepreneur and CEO interviews, and street interview challenges.

Video Assignments

Students' speech presentations are recorded at fixed milestones to review their progress before they move on to the next stage β€” so growth is something you can actually see and hear.

International Recognition (Optional)

For our Superkids graduates, we offer the option to sit for the Trinity College London Communication Examinations β€” an internationally recognised speaking certification. 60+ Deemcee students have already earned this credential.
