Q: What results did you get for English and Math in the PSLE last year, the WA1 and the WA2 this year?
Last year, my PSLE performance in both English and Math was sub-par with AL7. Starting this year, I promised myself to shake it off, channel all my efforts into studies and worked my way up to a distinction A in Math and B in English in the WA1. I continued to focus and my efforts were paid off with full distinctions in both English and Math in the WA2. To reward and recognise my achievements, my school promoted me from NT Math to NA Math starting from term 3.
Q: What did you do in your preparation for the WA2 this time round and how was it different from last time?
Last time, I was distracted during the lessons in school and I did not practise much for the PSLE. For the WA1 and WA2 this year, I paid more attention and was more focused during the lessons both in school and tuition. I would make sure that I did not miss out on the important concepts that were covered during the lessons. My mom had also bought assessment books and past year exam papers for me to practise regularly before I sat for the WA2.
Q: What does the tutor in the Achievers’ class do to help you in these subjects?
The English tutor provides clear and in-depth coverage of the grammar, vocabulary as well as the answering techniques for the comprehension. The tutor will explain the meanings of the words that I am unsure of and gives me additional spelling of the words with the meanings to increase my vocabulary knowledge.
The Math tutor also explains clearly the methods. As a result, I can understand much better how the methods and the formulas work. Therefore, I can apply them properly when I am doing the questions. Every now and then, the Math tutor will test me and reinforce what I learn in school to ensure that I fully understand and know how to solve the questions from the topics taught in school.
Q : What is your target for the EOY exam this year? What will you do to achieve it?
My target for both English and Math will be A in the EOY exam this year.
I will step up on my revision by doing both the assessment books and past year exam papers as well as review my textbook more often. I will continue to stay focused during the lessons in both school and tuition to absorb the most knowledge from the teachers and the tutors. I will also bring questions to clear my doubts with the tutors.
What Team Einstein says:
