We are in the PSLE season folks. What happens when the exams are around? Normally, both students, as well as their parents, make efforts to step up their game. You pour in the midnight oil, you try to cover everything in the syllabus and quite often you freak out.

Online Learning – How’s the trend post-COVID-19 chaos?
23 January 2020 – A date that many would shudder when they recall this date. Health authorities and residents of Singapore collectively sigh as we think back on this date. This was the date that the first case of Covid-19 was confirmed in Singapore.
How do I revise for PSLE?
If you have been reading our blogs regularly then you would already know by now as to why you should have a proper plan while preparing for taking an examination. Right now, time is your most precious resource. Why do we say so? Precisely because you have very little time left. In this scenario, you definitely do not want to waste even a single second. Without a proper plan, you just cannot allocate your time efficiently. You might end up wasting too much time on stuff that you only need to spend a relatively lesser amount of time on. You might also miss out on important stuff.
Celebrating our Selfless Teachers!
4 September 2020 – What’s the significance of this date? It’s not Independence day, it’s not Singapore’s National Day. Yes, it marks the start of the much-anticipated September school holidays, but that’s only after we celebrate Teachers’ Day! As we enter into the month of September, it is time for us to pause and remember a group of unsung heroes of this year. Not all heroes wear capes. Some handle classes for students over zoom too! 🙂
The Key to Stress-Free Learning!
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.
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 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.
Blending Video Lessons & Direct Learning: The Path to Better Results!
Look at how Covid-19 has forced all of us to hop onto the technology bandwagon and immerse ourselves just to stay relevant and in touch with our loved ones? Question is – how can we keep interest in learning consistent? Are there tools that we can use to optimise our learning abilities?
