This helps to boost their confidence and refreshes their understanding of key concepts and phrases that are frequently tested.
How We Boost Each Child’s Learning
Direct
Consistent revision of concepts is important in helping students retain information and to understand the subject better. We place emphasis on important concepts and questions to better prepare students for examinations. With our step-by-step guidance, we ensure that students are exposed to the right techniques and ways to tackle examination questions. By constantly sharing real world scenarios in our lessons, your child will be able to make connections and apply the concepts and skills taught.
Develop
Practice makes perfect. You may find that your child is not getting enough practice on his/her own which is crucial in their learning years. We believe that regular practice with exam questions will allow students to learn from their mistakes, and be better prepared to tackle their exams.
With our small class size, every child gets the attention they need to clarify doubts, and learn more efficiently.
