English Remedial Classes



Remedial Classes is an intensive course for school-going students who are weak in English, not able to catch up with the school syllabus or those who require special needs. This course is also suitable for those who would like to prepare for 2009 syllabus. We offer group as well as private remedial classes. For private classes, our teachers will put together materials suited to the child’s needs. This course runs for six weeks, comprising 12 sessions, each at 1.5 hours. We also provide home tuition upon request.

English Holiday Programme for Primary School Children


Children between the ages of 7 and 12 will get exposure on the following:-

Recycling

As global warming is becoming a much discussed issue with the leaders of the world, it is important that our generation and the next generation understand the importance of recycling in order to preserve the earth. The first week of our holiday programme entails group discussion, brain storming activities and exciting worksheets on recycling issues. Children will also learn to make a craft from used materials to bring home!

Creative Writing

In week two of our holiday programme, children will be taught the art of writing a composition creatively. They will learn to analyse the structure and organization of different forms of text, focus on the language appropriate forms of text, construct their own rules for the writing of different forms of text, and modify and extend their rules in the light of further experience. Having learnt the art of writing creatively, children will find joy in writing!

The Art of Writing a Fairy Tale & Story Telling

Fairy tales have always been a big part of a child’s growing up years. In week three of our holiday programme, children will be exposed to different types of fairy tales, myths and legends. They will be coached on how to narrate a story using proper intonation, face expression and body gestures.
