Our laboratory apparatus are exam-grade and the same as those used in MOE schools and our chemicals are all NEA-approved.

We have a structured practical training programme catering to the needs of both beginners and experienced students.
-
We have a small class size so that the teacher is able to observe the actions of each student more closely and demonstrate the correct practical techniques where and when necessary.
You may need science practical lessons if you are a private candidate who needs a science lab and apparatus as well as practical coaching, or you are a school candidate who needs more practical training to get top grades.
IMPORTANT INFORMATION FOR PRIVATE CANDIDATES
The registration for ‘A’ and ‘O’ Level exams as a private candidate usually opens around early to mid-April (Please check SEAB website). If you are registering for a Science subject (Physics, Chemistry, Biology or Combined Sciences), at the time of registration in April, you will be asked whether you have done any science practical training in any school, centre, or institute.
Thus if you are considering Singapore Learner as your science practical training provider, you are strongly advised to register with us and begin your science practical sessions for each subject BEFORE APRIL for us to certify that you have attended basic science practical training. Thus it is recommended that you commence practical training with us in Jan/Feb. Please note students usually do about 10 practical sessions per subject to be competent in practicals.
The following is taken from SEAB website:
“If you are registering for a Science subject with a practical paper, you:
• Must have sat the same Science subject(s) previously, OR
• are currently attending or will be attending a course of instruction in Science practical at any institute/school. You must complete the course of instruction in Science practical at the institute/school enrolled in. You are required to declare that you have fulfilled the above requirements at the point of registration. Registration for the subject may be cancelled without a refund of the examination fees if a false declaration is made.“

Effective learning occurs when …..
Constructivist views of learning stress the active role of the learner in building understanding. Many learning theories based on cognitive psychology propose that “effective learning occurs when individuals construct their own understandings.” (p.3)
There are three kinds of constructivism: personal, social and information processing.
Personal constructivism refers to the learner’s internal mental state and transformations of understanding that arise within the individual.
Social constructivism refers to the learner’s building of knowledge in a social context, the making of meaning through shared experiences or interactions with others.
Information processing constructivism refers to the learner’s selecting, organising and integrating of new experiences with existing knowledge to build understanding.
Central to the constructivist view of learning is that there is an active participation of the learner, and a shift in focus from what the teacher may do to facilitate learning to “what the learner does as an active agent in the learning process.” (p.4)
