IMPORTANCE of HEAD START for ECONOMICS
Hi all,
I am Mr Jimmy Teh, currently a tutor for Economics Headstart and Relearning Programme with SG Learner.
I have taught in JC since 2008, before venturing into tuition in 2015.
As a former teacher who was once in a mainstream school, I am aware of the rigour of JC curriculum and how it is designed to promote critical thinkers and self-directed learners. However, there will be times when it will be difficult, especially during the whole preparation for the new term, orientations for the group leaders and even those competing and preparing for their CCA major competitions.
Thus, I feel it will be crucial to have programmes specially catered to these group of students who might find their first term of school to be exceedingly overwhelming and would prefer to have some fundaments covered.
These courses are planned with a unique set of notes for easy learning and come with its own diagnostics to help you to identify the root cause of your issues, be it inadequacies in the understanding of content, unable to tackle the question fully or not using the right words for the answers.
Work done will also be fully assessed, with sufficient rigour and exposure in these programmes.
So feel free to join me in our programs at Bukit Batok!
Contact 6569 4897 or whatsapp 9385 5341 for more details.
