Stress almost inevitably creeps up into our daily routines, especially when it comes to learning (yes, all you stressed students know exactly what I am talking about). I guess we can all agree on the fact that more often than not, stress ends up being a negative influence on the learning process, and eventually takes a toll on how we feel. But, do we know how to get rid of it?

I need tuition – PSLE is a month away!
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.
Help, I need more time!
At what stage of the examination process will you need effective time management? The answer is – at every single step. Whether it be in your study room while you are charting an exam strategy or the exam hall where you are taking your all-important test, without proper time management your chances of achieving success are badly dented.
How to remain top of your game during exam time?
With the last-minute revision, cramming of information and content just the night before the exams, these tactics usually form the base of the usual exam routine. Tensions can soar, tempers can rise, and the usual humdrum days can suddenly seem very chaotic.
Help! How can I optimise my revision?
Say the word “Exam!” and you’ll watch as the eyes of students widen as they are sent into an almost-immediate panic mode. Yes, it is inevitable that all of us (who have gone through the academic phase of our lives) know this isn’t going to be the first time we hear the word and certainly won’t be the last. What causes this anxiety? Is there nothing to prevent us from feeling this way?
How can I converse better?
Effective communication isn’t a skill that is acquired overnight. Ask any successful speaker or anyone in your circle who converses well on how they acquired this skill? You’re going to listen to these replies – “It took me years of practice to master this skill”, “I used to read a lot of books”, “I used to give speeches to a large audience” and so on.
Happy Birthday, Singapore! We celebrate US!
As we welcome the nation’s 55th National Day, we inhale deeply because this has definitely been a challenging year for many of us. Undoubtedly what we would describe as an unprecedented year, no one saw Covid-19 coming, let alone expected the massive changes that this virus has made in our lives. The entire world has been struck and we are still reeling under its impact.
How much must I practice to get my A* for Math?
Over the past few decades, the world has changed beyond recognition. But there are some things that haven’t changed. Among these unchanging aspects is the ‘fear of math’ that has been passed on from generation to generation. Well, it isn’t a surprise then that maths tuition is something that is eagerly sought after by parents and students.
Selamat Hari Raya Haji!
Hari Raya Haji is also known as the Festival of the Sacrifice and there is a story behind this. Prophet Ibrahim is an important character in the Islamic religion. He was a righteous man and a strong believer in God. In order to test Ibrahim’s loyalty, God asked the prophet to offer his own son Ishmael as a sacrifice. Prophet Ibrahim followed God’s command and had propped his son up for the sacrifice when God intervened to tell him that he did not have to sacrifice his son. Instead, Ibrahim is said to have made another sacrifice. It is the commemoration of Ibrahim’s sacrifice which is celebrated as Hari Raya Haji.
