I feel to score in Science, the kid must understand the concepts very well by knowing how to apply it, how the change in variables affect the outcome and be able to to know which concepts the teacher is testing them on for each question. Cannot memorize. Hence by doing the hands on experiments to know your hypothesis, variables, constants, outcome and explanation to even \"failed experiments\" are important.

I believe kids learn best if they enjoy the subject, hence my girl was under this teacher during her primary school days. It keeps her interest in Science till now in Sec 3 taking Triple Sciences.
My nephews are in this centre too. Elder one got A* for recent PSLE and younger one band 1 (P3).
Learning is a continuous process, hope all our children can enjoy learning for life.

Hi SydneyBB

At Science Alive are they into experiments as well? My child is rather weak in Section B, does Science Alive tackle that area?

how much is the fees, class size btw?

thanks

They tackle on open ended questions every week (I see some questions are related to the experiment they do that day and more questions on that topic).
Every week there is experiment except 1-2 weeks before exams where they focus on revisions and exam techniques.
I see that their experiments are quite interesting and relevant to my son's sch syllabus. My son gets to do the experiments himself, no need to share. Some of my friends told me that some centres only the teachers do the experiments and students look.
Class size quite small, my son's class has only 4 students. Ha! He can get full attention of the teacher as he is very talkative!

I know of a really good tutor from tuition centre @ Holland area. She's one of the best kept secrets, many high ability kids under her in my DS's school but parents kiasu or selfish, don't want to recommend. Slowly one by one quit own tuition and switch to her. After I sent my son to her, I see why the kids love her, very inspiring. Can pm u if you don't mind the travel.

I think I like the way my tutor approaches to my kids. She would do mind map and hands on to get my kids interested to learn. She would also highlight the impt concepts and common exam Qs. 70-80% accuracy even for O levels and A levels. I think it takes a genius to do tt. My kids are doing well during her guidance and I am well pleased
