      What are his study techniques? Has he ever been taught how to study well? One thing I discovered with my own children was that at school they were never taught how to learn properly. Once they were taught some key learning skills their performance improved greatly.

        Nope, no particular study technique.. that's the worrying part. She's starting not to like Additional Maths especially and is intending to drop the subject. Therefore, I am looking for a Maths specialist/tutor to instil in her some \"love\" for Maths..I am thinking of getting the service of \"smashingexams.com.sg\" . Perhaps they can do some wonders to my DD 🙂

                    It is not uncommon for students to drop their grades in sec3 as there is a big jump from sec2-3. But with good guidance, students in sec 3 can catch up and excel in their O levels.

                    I engaged one ex MOE teacher who specialises in teaching Mathematics and Social Studies for O levels students. He had been teaching in a well-known school for a few years and had produced remarkable results. Most importantly, he is patient and teaches according to his students' pace. Heard that he is conducting June holiday workshop next month for Social studies.
                    This is his hp no 90104931, I dun think he will mind me putting his hp no here, since it's free advertisement. Or u can reach him at [email protected]. Hope your child will do well in the O-levels!

                      For sec 3 usually school covers abt 80% of the school syllabus for the subjects. For sec 4 sch coverss the rest and mostly will do revision. Sec 3 is rather impt. Can try get pte tuition or enrol to tuition centre. For effectiveness, can go for one to one pte tuition.
