Hi Teacher


My kid is weak in CL & HCL comprehension, may i know Is there any technique to make them understand what the question asking for. Sometimes, the question asks for 想法 but the answer sheet need action and thinking to be written too. Really confusing.

Hi s277400,

The question types are more or less 'fixed' so with constant practice, should be able to exercise relevant technique and comprehend/understand what is expected of in the answer.

Here's a brief summary for you/your child's reference.

The strange thing is my dd speaks terribly (slang) but somehow scored distinction in PSLE Chinese. Her tutor was really good in revising the “common” exam topics and questions with them. But now looking for secondary Chinese Tuition centre. Anyone can recommend?

There are 4 levels of comprehension for PSLE Chinese Language in the 7 questions in Paper 2. And every level requires different skills to master it.

Was recommended by a parent in Facebook forum.


We have similarities! If she can help my child, yours should be fine too. You are lucky to get a slot. Back then, we waited 4 to 7 months for a slot.
She do not force my kid to remember words on the first day or the lesson itself. As humans we all tend to forget words we used to know. She uses Pleco translate words into pinyin and English to allow tiny child to understand better. Step by step process, unlike those tutors or tuition centres. Going through exam papers or force them to write a lot but they don’t get it. If you don’t rush into things, this is a good approach. We exempted him my eldest child for Chinese but he is still taking chinese from her. My younger’S application got rejected, she tries her best and encouraging him a lot.

Can any teachers help. My kid school teacher keep restricting my kid to write only 3 pages for compo. Is it advisable. My kid usually can write up to 3.5 or 4 pages with good phrases. I thinks 3 pages only limit kid to using good phrase, so is this PSLE standard to write only 3 pages? Please advise. Thanks
