Next week’s free tuition: P5 Math (Sat, 23 Aug, 11am – 12.30 pm)

Posted on by admin

Every week starting next week, I will choose a particular level and subject and give free coaching on one of its fundamental topics so that weak students can move on and hopefully catch up with others. Without grasping these fundamentals or knowing good techniques, these students will be left far behind and may eventually end up hating the subject.

My P5 daughter topped her class in a recent science test.

Posted on by admin

She obtained 28 out of 30 marks. Of course immediately I asked her about the missing two marks (as though the 28 are not important, but hey, i’m Singaporean u know).

Rahmah has formal science tuition once a week, taught by Mr Lim at my home centre. But almost everyday, she gets to ask her elder sister, my wife and me about science. She’s not really interested in science, except for rocks and minerals which she buys and collects.

My technique is to teach my children science whenever and wherever I can, as my time with them is not much (when I’m free, they would be in school and when they are ‘free’, I would be giving tuition to other people’s children).

Of course it helps that I’m a physics tutor, with lots of knowledge about chemistry as well. I only get irritated when my children ask me about factual biology questions, such as the parts of a plant cell. For that, I normally ask them to use the internet. This is to develop them to be more resourceful and not to immediately rely on others for answers.

If you want your children to be good in science, ask them to read a lot about science and make them think about what they see around them. For eg, ask them why is it easier to cut chicken with a knife than with a metal ruler. In science, you can’t just say it is because the knife is sharper; the scientific answer has to do with force and surface area, or pressure.

Rgds,

Ilyasa
