Hi all,
Any headstart PSLE camp to recommend for this Nov/Dec holiday?
My DS is P5 this year. -
i totally agree what the professor mentioned.
\"Most of our students acquire knowledge just to pass exams, and they do not really enjoy the learning process,\" Prof Tan told the Chinese evening daily

from beginning to end, it's all about learning how to pass exams...for example doing past year exam papers which has been going on all these years. -
janet88:
past year exam papers is not a way to revise...it can only be done after revision is completed.
janet88, actually I do find past year papers a fast way to revise. From the papers, you can find out what the child doesn't know, then revise accordingly. This you don't have to waste time going through everything. -
janet88:
Agree! Especially science, too rigid.. it has to be the 'model' answer. You have to use the exact word eg, strong =/= hard etc..To score well for science, we have to master the technique of answering, knowing the facts is not enough.i totally agree what the professor mentioned.

As usual, dd2 did badly for CL oral. She knows all the technique in theory but encountered application issue. Don’t know how to help her. She refused to practice with me.
