Thank you and Best Regards.
———————————————————————————————————–
Dear Post-O-Level Students.
If you currently have the following Questions:
(1) Should I go JC or Poly?
(2) Which subject combination to take in JC? What is H2 or H1? Take 4 H2s or 3 H2s?
(3) How to survive JC1 and Promos? How to prepare for A-levels?
(4) How different is General Paper from O-Level English? Is it important to take Economics?
(5) What is the difference between H2 and H1 Math? How different is H2 Math from A. Math?
(6) Is H2 Chemistry very difficult compared to O-Level Chemistry? How about H2 Physics?
then you are highly encouraged to ATTEND our specially prepared TALK on JC / Poly matters on Wed 14 Jan at 8pm. ADMISSION IS FREE.
Details as follows.
Date: WED, 14 JAN 2015
Time: 8.00 pm – 9.30 pm
Venue: BLK 644, BUKIT BATOK CENTRAL, #01-68, S(650644).

Compliment from a secondary school Physics teacher ….
Below is an email (with names removed) I received from a Physics teacher on Nov 14, regarding my post IMPORTANT TOPICS FOR O-LEVEL PHYSICS (5058) PAPER 2 2013.
————————————————————————————————————–
Hi Ilyasa,
I am <teacher’s name>,
<Student’s name>’s physics teacher.
He has attended yr physics crash course in oct.
I have compiled a list of qns based on yr predictions for 2013 paper 2.
I am impressed by the accuracy of yr predictions and would like to ask you If there are any methods u have used to reach such accuracy besides doing the elimination method.
I can be contacted at <hp no.>.

Note:
The above is based on my analysis of the Physics Paper 2 from 2008 to 2012. In general, Paper 2 topics of the previous year is not repeated in the following year, and topics that have not been tested for several years are more likely to be tested this time round.
Please not that the above are just guidelines and not 100% accurate. The topics that I have de-emphasized for Paper 2 can still be tested in Paper 1.

Note: If you wish to have intensive revision on the above important topics, kindly attend my special two-day workshop, O-LEVEL PHYSICS (5058) INTENSIVE REVISION / CRASH COURSE on 26 & 27 Nov.
Another workshop you may be interested in is O-LEVEL 2013 PHYSICS MCQ INTENSIVE DRILL SESSION (700+ MCQs) – $50 ONLY.
Final PSLE Math Intensive Revision (Sep 9 to Sep 12)

===============================================================
ORIGINAL POST(OUTDATED):
Ok, a parent has asked me abt PSLE Math intensive revision during the Sep hols. Due to my busy schedule, I can only conduct it from 2pm to 4pm, Mon (Sep 9) to Thurs (Sep 12) at Bukit Batok Central Blk 627, near West Mall and Bukit Batok MRT station. Since it is only 8 hrs, I will only cover the heuristics used to solve difficult problem sums, as a last-minute revision of such concepts.
Each 2 hr session is $30. So total fees for four days is $120. Due to limited places (max eight students), confirmation of registration is by advance payment. To register, send an sms to my hp no: 97860411.
This course is personally taught by me, with a focus on thinking skills and metacognition. Please share this post with people who may be interested. Thank you!
