For Primary 6 students, these masterclasses are a finishing boost. For Primary 5 students, they’re a head start.
After the prelims, I don’t believe most students need more content. More often, they need help learning how to use what they already know to earn marks.
For Primary 5 students, there’s an opportunity that’s easy to overlook. They still have time to build the right habits before those habits are tested in the PSLE.
One thing that stayed with me from my experience as a PSLE marker is that many marks aren’t lost because students don’t understand the passage or the grammar. They’re lost because of *how* students answer. A child writes only one point for a two-mark question. Another changes a connector but forgets to rebuild the sentence. Someone else chooses a cloze answer because it “sounds right” rather than because the context supports it.
These aren’t gaps in knowledge. They’re answering habits.
And the good news is that habits can be changed.
Each session of the Habits Masterclass is a focused two-hour deep dive into one English component, where I’ll teach the strategies, thinking process and answering techniques step by step, followed by guided practice so students can apply what they’ve learnt with confidence.
