Programme Overview
We help our students by breaking all the required PSLE skills down to digestible, modular bits. Instead of simply drilling full papers, we isolate and strengthen individual skills. When we isolate skills in this way, we are able to track precisely which skill is causing a dip in marks, so we can fix it fast.
Here is an example of a P6 lesson, to demonstrate how our skills-based approach helps with PSLE outcomes:
Advanced Grammar Precision and High-Yield Vocabulary
- Students identify and correct subtle grammar errors (e.g. faulty parallelism, ambiguous references, verb form traps)
- Builds attention to detail, crucial for PSLE editing
Focused exercises on advanced grammar:
- Tense consistency
- Passive/active voice
- Conditional structures
- Modifier placement
- Students apply rules to MCQ, cloze, and sentence correction formats
- Targeted contextual vocab (e.g., inadvertently, apprehensive, lingered)
- Activities:
- Fill-in-the-blank with context clues
- Synonym substitution
- Tone-based word matching
- Practice sentence transformation using PSLE-style prompts
- Emphasis on meaning preservation and grammar accuracy
- Students complete an Editing section under time pressure
- Reinforces fluency and self-checking
Grammar traps and editing precision
Editing for Spelling and Grammar
Mirrors the exact PSLE format and difficulty level of the Editing section
Subject–verb agreement and tense alignment
Grammar Cloze / MCQ
Reinforces key rules that frequently cause errors in Cloze and MCQ formats
Vocabulary from tone and context
Vocabulary MCQ / Comprehension Cloze
Builds nuance-based word recognition and usage
Grammar Cloze / Synthesis
Enables flexible grammar application across different sentence structures
Sentence restructuring and rewriting
Synthesis & Transformation
Directly trains PSLE-relevant transformation with attention to connectors and meaning
- Vivid and context-accurate vocabulary improves description and emotional tone
- Grammar mastery leads to clearer sentence construction and varied syntax
- Vocabulary accuracy supports more precise, fluent responses
- Exposure to idiomatic expressions improves natural spoken phrasing
