Hi,


I just went to Learning lab. Spoke to the enrollment staff and took a look at their teaching notes. Look good and very impressive. They seem to be the leading tuition centre now?

Hi! Thanks for the recommendation. But am hoping not to have to travel - so am looking for a private home tutor, if possible.

Hi, you can consider my dd1 ex tutor Miss Goh. She is an experienced tutor who knows the school syllabus well and what to take note of to score during exam. She can be contacted at 93989072, if you are interested.

Hi,

I’m looking for science tuition for my P4 girl. She scores around 80+.I want to her to push further to get A*…Somehow, i think i can’t really teach her the right techniques to push further… any good tuition/enrichment programme to recommend inline with the moe syllabus ?

I am looking for a private science tutor for my P3 and P5 kids. Anyone got good teachers in the east to recommend please?

[quote=\"tyxmummy\"]My boy is currently under a private tutor and is improving a lot. He's been with her for about 1 year now and his results has been improving steadily from borderline pass last year, he can score A now. She's also teaching my siblings children and they have also been improving, really glad i found her.She teaches only science and i'm not sure whether she travels out far because me and my siblings all live in bukit panjang area.


She provides her own notes, worksheets and mindmaps and sometimes even do simple science experiments with my kid so he really loves her lesson. Science experiment really takes up a lot of time but he got better concept of the topic after the experiments.

Can pm me the contact too? thanks!

[/quote]Hi, I have recently came to know about a parent's recommendation of me on KS forum dated quite some time back. I'm very flattered to be recognised for my effort and teaching. :thankyou:

My private tutoring schedule is currently full but you can know more about me on my website at http://www.tuitionwithmissnicky.com
I will be opening up slots again for group tutoring of max 3 students at my place again after my house finish renovation around mid to late June.

Feel free to drop me an email or dm for enquiries.

With Regards,
Miss Nicky

Hi

Is the primary science syllabus changed/revised. I was using my older daughter purchased (4 years) ago for my younger one for P4… today when I went to popular saw New syllabus…2017… is there significant change in syllabus ? Any input is appreciated

Are you referring to the science guide? If yes, your kid is only in P4, so I suggest getting the latest one as by 2020 psle, it is 6yrs from your purchase in 2014.

My 2014 science orange guide, I only glance through and bought the lower block new syllabus guide for my son as I think I find the examples given more current. There are some minor changes on the syllabus. Thereafter, I didn't get the upper block as he did not refer much to the guide. He also uses 1 of his brother's 2014 assessment books. Latest series of assessment books has very different application based questions.

This was my post few years back.

I am not sure if there is any new 2017 syllabus as I only know my 2014 psle Sci resources cannot 100% use for my 2018 psle kid.

Thanks for the reply… I saw quite a few books saying 2017 psle format… my older one took psle in 2016, and hence I think can’t use her books for my younger one.

actually still can use 2016 PSLE books for PSLE 2018. Just some topics are no longer relevant and the exam format is different. The questions can use for practices. Not so much about testing duration completion settings.


In terms of syllabus, MOE usually do not have drastic changes between within 5 years. So if want to use 2016 PSLE book for revision and recap on relevant topics, still can.
