Awesomely humbled by my ex student. Bryan was one of my sweetest boys when I first taught him when he was p4. He got my PSLE Survivor pack when he was in p6. Thank God for Facebook, I still keep in contact with Candy, his mum. She saw the post I shared, and she sent… Continue reading Put To Good Use

Seeing Progression
Special mention to one of my p6 boys. To an average student, this seems easy for him/her to complete. However, I have a special spot for this boy. He is not bright and is the slowest in class. He tries his best to complete his work and I am very proud of his efforts. Fast… Continue reading Seeing Progression
Slow & Steady
I love my passion to make a difference in the lives of my students. As I always tell parents, I cannot create miracles, but I can create opportunities for my students to grow and be nurtured in a conducive environment. The above results do not come easy. She failed her English throughout in P5 and… Continue reading Slow & Steady
E-learning
My p3 nephew is selected to participate in his school’s GEP English. So the ever caring 姑姑 takes charge of his learning. I tried the method that I use on my p5-p6 students. I was impressed he was able to produce what I wanted him to do. Smart fellow! Runs in the genes! Hahaha… He… Continue reading E-learning

I make my students read and set up the different circuits on their own, observe the changes and record their observation. In the process of having fun, they are recapping… Continue reading All About Electricity

Promised one of my boys to get him a crystal kit and he chose his favourite colour. Instructions are pretty easy, except the water must be really at boiling point to dissolve the crystals. My boy did the steps on his own, except the boiling water part. He was excited to wait till next week… Continue reading Growing Crystals
Another satisfaction
It’s a good start to get children interested in a subject matter first. The rest, can be filled in later. Once a child sees the reason to work harder, the child will be willing to take ownership. Take this sweet p5 girl. The mum told me before lesson started, her girl whined about being tired… Continue reading Another satisfaction
Sowing seeds…
My 2 dear nephews were excited about growing grassheads, which I promised to get for them. I did not go through the procedures in details and only did minimal instructions to them. They did 90% of work. I’m not sure if the plants will germinate by the looks of it, but it’s Science! I want… Continue reading Sowing seeds…
Reason For My Passion
Throwback 7 years ago! Found a stack of thank you notes from my past students. I love handwritten gifts over commercial bought ones! This tugged at my heartstrings. I am reminded that each and every time spent with children, they are able to sense how much you care for them. Aside the academic values, I… Continue reading Reason For My Passion
