Examinations are some of the most interesting periods in our lives (with the PSLE just a month away, Primary 6 students, you would have probably experienced this by now).
Yes, heart-stopping, mind-numbing moments are about to befall us again. It’s that time of the year – the year-end examinations are just around the corner. How do you feel? Do you feel that you’ve learnt much this year? It’s definitely a challenge to prepare amidst Covid-19 isnt’ it? Do you feel that you are well prepared? Or are you feeling tense and that you have a lot more to do before the exams?
If you belong to the latter category, chill for a minute. Don’t worry (almost everyone feels a bit of pressure. It’s the PSLE after all!). Many students and parents might be feeling that they need some extra help at this point in time (Yes, a lot of us might be screaming out for help in our minds). Even more might be thinking about availing tuition services. But how should you go about this?
Can tuition help?
What exactly does tuition do? Tuition helps enhance your learning. It allows you to gain greater clarity about the topics in your syllabus (yes, you probably know all this).
But what can tuition do for you just about a month before your all-important PSLE? Is it even worth a shot?
It most certainly is! Why, you may then ask. Well the answer, as obvious as it may be, may need some persuasion. Tuition helps to bring in a sense of efficiency to your learning process. On the eve of your examinations, it can help reinforce the concepts in your minds. It complements your efforts and more importantly, it can help you calm your nerves. Tutors have an immense reserve of knowledge when it comes to exam preparation strategies. Attending tuition means that you will be able to access this reserve and gain a better understanding of how to go about your exam preparation in the final weeks before the exam.
Explore flexible learning options
If you do decide to join a crash course or some similar tuition program just before your PSLE then make sure to pick one that gives you ample flexibility. Students must have the freedom to customise and address their own specific needs. If you are struggling with math and you are already doing pretty well with your language subjects then you obviously shouldn’t need to spend hours attending language tuition.
At this crucial juncture, utilise tuition to fix the chinks in your armour, the areas where you are weak in.
Time to go online?
What about exploring online tuition options? Well, that can indeed be an efficient move. With online tuition videos, students can avail a greater degree of flexibility while learning. They can squeeze in the online tuition hours into their preparation schedule at their own convenience.
What about revision? The online learning method helps you to revise more and to revise with added efficiency as well
Inside the exam hall
Let’s stray a bit
Alright then. I guess we’ve pretty much settled the discussion about getting tuition before the PSLE. Let’s speak about another important factor. How stressed are you?
Let’s face it. A lot of us might have a significant amount of stress (to be read as ‘totally freaked out’). Be aware that these things tend to happen even to the best of us, especially during such situations.
But then, what benefit does excess stress bring you? Let’s say you have your exams in 30 days. Imagine that you are stressed out because you feel that you still have to finish studying or revising many topics. Does stressing out over this fact help you cover any of the remaining topics? No. In the best-case scenario, stressing out wastes your time (minutes, hours or days) and in the worst-case scenario, it can give you a panic attack! Is either of these possibilities desirable? No!
The moral of the story is that yes you are going to face stress, but make sure you don’t let it gain the upper hand. Sit down, stay calm, sort out your priorities and which subjects you need to focus on in order to achieve your best overall grade.
So as the countdown to the PSLE nears to zero, let’s step up our game. If you need tuition, then go ahead and get some. Tuition can indeed give you that power boost you require just before the exam. But above all, stay calm and trust yourself. Believe that you are going to do well!
