Success is not defined by which schools we enter …

“Success is not defined by which schools we enter. Success is the ability and the willingness to be the best that we can be with the resources that are available to us.”

– Muhammad Raimi Rahmat, recent First Class Honours graduate, University of Manchester.

ST (8/9/2013, Home p.21) – When Raimi was 12 years old, he begged his principal and mother to let him go to a neighbourhood secondary school, even though he scored 270 in his PSLE.

Yay, my P6 student made a big improvement in her Math

Congratulations to Victoria Ng for obtaining 73% for her PSLE Math Prelim Paper as compared to just 43% for her P6 Math SA1. This is also the first time she has passed Math in P6.

Although she was a comparatively weak Math student, I allowed her to join my Sat morning Challenging PSLE Math Programme for Medium to High Ability Students as I believe that most students will benefit from the exposure to the tough questions that I give.

I adopt a metacognitive approach in all my teaching, making students think about their own solutions and making them compare their solutions with those of others and my own. In this way, they will learn the most efficient method to solve a particular type of problem. They will also learn about their natural way of thinking, and how the latter may not be the best approach for some problems.

Final PSLE Math Intensive Revision (Sep 9 to Sep 12)

For our latest timetable, click here =>  pributton

===============================================================

ORIGINAL POST(OUTDATED):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!
